How it’s made
The game is made with Unity Engine. Some models are from Unity Asset Store. Roads are made using Blender.
At the beginning, there was some basics shaders but there were some bugs when the game was published on Android. This explains the simple of textures.
All effects are made using Particles Effects form Unity Components and they use basics materials for optimization.
Speaking about optimization, terrain are turned into FBX objects to allow a maximum of devices to run the game.
Now, let’s talk about AI of player’s opponent. Opponent’s spaceship follows a path made with way points. Its speed is depending on sinuosity of the road. Difficulty is based on opponent’s speed and his capacity to brake and turn.
