Blood Dance

Here is a track with a theme carried through to its end (no pun intended). At first, the custom textures suggest that you might be driving on the "red planet" but you're quickly reminded of the track's title.

The predominantly red color comes from the offal and spillage of a spike monorail, a grinder and a guillotine. Oddly, the course winds it's way between racing billboards, a few models imported from Cart, and then through large menacing objects for checkpoints. The lap ends with a halfpipe over eerie looking textures, highlighted by the dusk weather mask, and underscored by a surreal backdrop. The combined effect of all this is not so much a cult horror movie fright experience but a sci-fi creepy futuristic atmosphere. Nice work.

This is a pro track that will challenge you with narrow ramps and strictly timed jumps, and, until you become familiar with the track, the racing line is tough to follow. It is probably best in multiplayer since, unfortunately, the computer trucks don't work.
