Stunts

aka: 4D Driving, 4D Sports Driving
Moby ID: 329

You'll never look at racing programs the same way again.

Stunts turns driving games upside down. Literally. It comes with 14 different hair-rising stunts, including pipes and corkscrews for white-knuckle, upside-down driving!

Not to mention loop-the-loops, slaloms and jumps! All so realistic you may want to bring along motion sickness pills.

Buckle yourself into one of eleven blistering cars. Each with a dead-on dashboard and downright amazing driving characteristics.

Race on five gut-wrenching tracks. Or use the Track Editor to build your own monster courses!

*** Watch replays from 3 video camera angles, or set your own.

  • Challenge any of six ice-in-their-veins competitors in 256-color digitized animation.

  • Get a heart-pounding cockpit view with blazing 3-D polygon graphics.**

Stunts is published by Brøderbund and was developed by Distinctive Software, Inc., the same speed demons who designed Test Drive and The Duel: Test Drive II.

But it's so far ahead, it's not even a race.

Larry - Here's a new set of cars to test, Leadfoot. Along with the Countach, Ferrari GTO and Carrera, you get to take a spin in the Acura NSX. Try to bring it back in one piece. And let me know how the 'Vette ZR-1 stands up to the imports. You also have 3 racing cars (Porsche March Indy and 962 and the Jaguar IMSA) and 3 off-roads. Check out the Lamborghini LM-002; it's a 4-wheel drive monster! You'll notice a couple of new stunts on the track. The pipe will be an excellent challenge for cars with good ground effects, but be careful trying to go upside down in the bigger vehicles. The corkscrew is brand new and may be a little dangerous. (But then, I know that won't bother you.) All the other items are still here: jumps, slaloms, bridges, loops, spirals, boulevards, tunnels - 14 in all. Run the numbers on our 5 standard layouts, but then design a few of your own courses...and really test these babies! Enjoy!
