Most arcade racers are "full contact" racing, where you are encouraged to shove your opponents into barriers or blast them out of the way with power ups.Įxpect No Sidepaths, No Exploration, No Freedom, as you're supposed to race the other vehicles, not explore - this makes it much easier for the programmers. Most games based on real-life motorsport, such as the Formula One series, involve driving around a track with set rules of noninterference with your competitors.
Simulation-style racing games are generally "no contact" affairs, just as in real life.
Toward the arcade end, brakes are nearly unnecessary toward the simulation end, brakes are the only thing saving you from skidding head-on into the wall and cars are as close as can be made to their Real Life analogues. Most racing games are Driving Games and when it comes to driving they sit on a line between "arcade" and "simulation". Sometimes you're just the car, and you never even see the driver, sometimes you drive nothing at all.
You are on a course or given a course to take and your goal is to get from point A to point B as fast as you can, usually before your opponents do.
