## About the game

Remember the slot-car set? The one that took the whole living-room floor, needed an adult to fit the track pieces, and ended every race with a car under the sofa? **Tabletop Racing Simulator** is that set, rebuilt in 3D with proper physics and none of the hunting for lost guide blades.

Every circuit is assembled from real Scalextric catalogue pieces at their real sizes: straights, curves, crossovers, borders. The cars run in their slots at a fixed 120 simulation steps a second, and they behave like the real thing. Go too fast into a curve and the car deslots, spins, and sometimes leaves the table altogether.

## One button. Zero excuses.

Hold to accelerate, let go to brake. The skill is in knowing exactly how late you can lift. Race three laps against an AI driver from Rookie to Alien, practise alone with the timing tower watching every split, or start a Quick Duel and hand the other controller to someone who still thinks they were faster in 1989.

## Build the track you always wanted

The track editor lets you sculpt hills, dig tunnels, plant trees, add water, and dress the circuit with grandstands, gantries, pit garages and race control. Or let the generator surprise you with a fast, curvy, compact or elevated layout.

This is an early preview straight from the workbench. It plays best on a computer or a large tablet.

## What's inside

- **One button**: Hold to go, release to brake. That's the whole control scheme, and it's harder than it sounds.
- **Deslots**: Take a curve too fast and the car spins off the slot and maybe off the table. Just like the real thing.
- **Real track pieces**: Circuits are built from real Scalextric catalogue pieces at real dimensions, crossovers and all.
- **Four AI drivers**: Rookie, Club, Expert and Alien. Alien is not a joke.
- **Five cameras**: From a bird's eye over the board to a bumper cam at slot-car height.
- **Track builder**: Generate a circuit or build your own, with hills, tunnels, trees, grandstands and pit garages.

## Questions

### Is this the finished game?

No. It's an early preview, so expect rough edges and changes. Feedback through the help page is very welcome.

### Can I play with friends?

Quick Duel puts two players on the same screen. Grab a gamepad each, or share a keyboard.

### Does it run on a phone?

It runs, but it's a 3D simulator and it shines on a computer, a big tablet, or a TV through a laptop.
