-Gameplay The game consists of 20 levels, each with their own themes, gimmicks, and difficulty. Each race is unique. No matter how many times you play any level, a new race will never be the same. Racing is separated into three modes: Online VS, Local Duel, and Time Attack. In Online VS, you can connect and race with up to 7 other players. The bigger the room, the more chaos and destruction... In Local Duel mode, you can race offline against a friend on the same device on split-screen. The default controls are recommended (player 1 on WASD, player 2 on arrow keys). In Time Attack (Storyline via IGDB)
