GAME OVERVIEW

NITRO is a 3D racing game which pays homage to the classic 3D retro racers of yesteryear. The aim of the game is simple: prove your worth as you traverse multiple challenging routes across highways, deserts, and city streets to become the ultimate racing champion.

That's it. Go play.

GAMEPLAY

The gameplay in NITRO is incredibly straightforward: guide your vehicle along a series of challenging routes, strategically using your nitro boosts to speed across the finish line before the time runs out. Once a stage is complete, you're offered a choice of routes for the next leg of your journey. Can you master them all?

CONTROLS

MENUS: The Dpad and A button are used for selecting menu items. In some situations the B button will return to the previous screen or exit the current menu.

IN-GAME: The Dpad (Left/Right) is used exclusively for steering your car, with the A Button used to accelerate and the Dpad (Up) used to engage a NITRO boost. 

STAGE SELECT

The Stage Select screen shows the possible routes you can take through the game. As an added bonus, you can also choose between one of three different music tracks, or turn off music completely and enjoy the SFX.
