HoverRace is the FIRST abandon-ware game designed solely for INTERNET multiplayer fun! It is an original, multi-player racing game specially designed to be played over a network.
Your goal is to be the first to drive your turbine engine-propelled hovercraft to the finish line.
Like in a steeplechase, you will have to leap over rivers and avoid other obstacles. You will also have to make some strategic choices, because HoverRace tracks offer more than one optimal line...
Hi all, just a quick note to let you know that HoverRace is currently having some big issues in the sense that, at present, the IMR roomlist on the download on the downloads page does not work. This means you will not be able to get online.
Secondly, with the beta release; due to some code being left in, it is impossible for people to race against each other. HoverRace will realise you are using the same registration key (as we use 0-0 for everyone) and kick you all out of the race.
The only current way to play against anyone online would be to play on the current release (not the beta!) via the network mode having somebody host a game, and have your friends join it.
