Midnight Race

leave a comment »

Midnight Race is a flash game.  It loads directly to the browser and starts once you click the play button.  There is a chat app that runs on the game screen so you can shout out to other players.  I tried this game, and to be honest, it’s not really worth playing.

First of all the only control is left and right arrows.  The speed is set on floored and you have to scurry back and forth across the screen trying to avoid the cars that are going your way, which might be hard to see, and the headlights coming at you in the other lanes.  There is some spastic music that plays along with the game action, and the game takes about a minute to load with a high speed connection.

I guess if you’re really bored you might try this game.  I didn’t have any real problems with it, except that I kept crashing into other cars.  Once you crash it’s game over.  It doesn’t look like there is any interaction with other players aside from the annoying chat text.  I found one site where I could get code to embed this game on a blog or a web page, but in my opinion it’s a waste of bandwidth, so I wouldn’t go to the trouble to put a copy of it here.
