BallisticNG: If you like PSX era Wipeout, this is for you

On Steam (also itch.io but it's out of date)

BallisticNG is a free anti-gravity racing game. You can play as a variety of teams competing in the 2159 Anti-Gravity League, each with their own unique vehicles. Visually the game emulates the limitations of the Playstation One hardware and a lot of care has been made into making sure it looks authentic while including more modern graphic techniques. The game has 5 different speed classes for different skill sets, starting off slow and eventually becoming brutally fast.
Features

    14 tracks in different locations
    13 teams setup for different play styles
    5 gamemodes - Arcade, Time Trial, Free Play, Tournament and Survival
    A variety of weapons for damaging and slowing other racers
    Modding Tools - Track Editor, Ship Editor and Custom Sounds
    Cockpit view - each ship has a unique cockpit!
    A soundtrack full of songs inspired by electronic music from the 90s

It plays just like the PSX Wipeout games, its kind of amazing. They even recreate the polygon jitter of the PSX if you want to be really authentic but thankfully you can turn that off. You can even import ships from Wipeout and Wipeout XL. I believe track importing is on the to-do list.

Anyway, its cool and its free. Check it.

You reminded me I totally needed to download that. I'll have to give it a whirl.
