Overview:
As the light turns green, 20 sportscars roar off of the line, the adrenaline is felt throuout the spectators...
Lean Machines is a trip around the world, in a sportscar. Starting in Britian, you must drive your car to victory across 16 distinct race courses. The other driver want the gold cup as much as you do, so stay ahead of the pack and take first. This ain't no pleasure drive either, you break, you buy, unless of course you broke! So strap in and get set for fastpaced racing, to 16 beautiful vistas around the world, and getready to knock tome fenders doing it.
Gamplay:
Lean Machines is geared for the casual racer, yet its difficulty level settings can be set to give even the most seasoned video racer a run for their money. The gameplay is fairly straight foward, drve, getfuel if you need it. The game will be easy to pick up and learn how to play, but HARD to both win, and put down. LM's targeted graphics engine will be used with several other games, one being a sequal with more tracks. The target GFX engine will be able to do hills many types of curves, and road texturing( minimally ) The engine will most likley resemble the Popular Lotus seris of racing games for the amiga and Sega Genesis, by EA, and Grimlin Graphics.

Z-t:
Lean Machines is the 2nd in a wave of 5 racing games. This will be about the only sportscar racing game out for the Lynx(currently, as Lean Machines 2 will come out) aside from Chechered Flag(a joy in many ways, but not all that satisfying a racing engine)the only other sprite based racing game, with arcade physics. Z-t, made up of one Lynx artist, has thus far 7 games *in the works* of course, after the graphics go, then I'm stuck, so the games tend to stay *in the works*.
