Redneck Racers

Redneck Racers is the next one after Alcatraz: In the Harm's Way is an original production of the Torun studio Silden. This time the developers decided to try their hand at dexterity racing in an unusual, agricultural climate.

The term "redneck" is used by Americans to describe white inhabitants of the southern states of the USA and is usually associated with the stereotype of a peasant - a backward and not very clumsy man. The creators of Redneck Racers decided to joke about it, making "rednecks" the heroes of tractor races.

The action of the game was set in the town of Pimperstown, far away from large agglomerations. To prevent boredom, the mayor organized races in which any local farmer with his own tractor can take part. The player directs the actions of one of the participants in a crazy competition, trying to get money to modernize and buy better and better machines and gain fame in the whole area.

Redneck Racers offers a total of 40 races sorted in 7 categories. During the game, you can sit behind the wheel of 5 tractor models, which are mainly distinguished by the bright colors of the body and funny patterns on the paint.

Tractors' struggles are purely skillful. When competing with computer-controlled enemies, speed, pushing and blocking competitors and the ability to use various power-ups and weapons (e.g. you can light a smoke candle from fertilizer or hit a rival with a giant hammer) are the most important factors. It is worth noting that although the driving model has little in common with realism, the game uses a PhysX physics engine.

Redneck Racers audio-visuals emphasizes the ridiculous character of the production. Three-dimensional graphics are stylized as a cartoon, and the whole experience is complemented by lively music in the style of redneck.
