[…] for Tractor Racing, I might not have realized just how bad it was if I hadn’t already played Avatar Grand Prix 2, which was a pretty dang good game. The tractor stuff is by far the best part of Sunflower Farm, […]

In reply to Keven. Little Racers STREET is quite good -- checked out the trial and purchased already.

Downloaded the trial.
First impressions were good. Visuals are ok, controls are ok.
And then, I finished my first race…
The courses are WAY too short. When I finished the first race, I thought I had just finished the first lap…
I’d love to see such game with longer laps, but a of now, I’ll have to pass this one.

Kairi Vice, Little Racers STREET seems to have good word of mouth.
Will you try another racing game soon ?

In reply to Dave.

Longer courses is what myself and everyone I talked to wants the most. The bouncy wall stuff seems like it could be fixed with a patch, and you should look into that. The course length, that can’t be changed for this one.

You’ll have 500MB worth of space at your disposal. Use it, and use it wisely.

Hi Kairi, thanks for the review! A lot of time and effort went into AGP2 so it’s good to know that its out there being enjoyed, and if there’s ever an AGP3, all the feedback I’ve received will be very useful.

Sadly, although I agree the signing out issues are a problem, we don’t have any control over them so I’m blaming XBox Live for that one. But I’ll let them off for actually allowing us Indie developers access to the service.

In reply to plezfiction. Thanks. I don't know if that's the problem, since it only happens with XBLIGs and has happened at multiple houses with different routers, but I'll look into it.

I had a lot of trouble getting signed out when trying to play the same game on two consoles connected to the same router. It turned out my router had a poor implementation of uPnP. I replaced it with a Netgear N300 and haven’t had any trouble since (and the other one is just serving as an additional access point now).

There’s a nice xbox forum post for issues like that, though I don’t know if it applies in this case:

In reply to Alan C with Tea. Oh yea, totally forgot about that one. If I didn't have a couple second chances to do to cap off the actual week, i would give it a go.
