Let's Play Inanimate Racer

I realized AFTER I made this video that I completely misread the question at the bottom of the game's main menu: It says "Why race animate objects?," not INanimate objects. Apparently I've been reading it wrong all these years!

Okay, I'm the one who actually wrote this game. Where did you even find this? It was a joke game I made when I was in high school.

For those without DosBox, I created a Flash version a long time ago, which you can find via Google.

@MrEricSir There is a Flash version that's widely distributed, but I vastly prefer the DOS original. DOS is authentic, while Flash is kind of a pretender to the throne.

Similarly, you should try

Morbidly Obese Rugby Nation!

:D

Wow, I found it and tried it; thanks for the recommendation! :D While it's in the same spirit, I think MORN is a little more interactive, as it has actual keys you can press during gameplay, even if they don't do very much.

Seriously, LateBlt, how could you not comment on the greater story arc of the inanimate racer series?

You mentioned nothing of the elaborate backstory of the teddy bear or CD. Did you even *read* the novelizations, written by the same stellar pen of the Star Control novel?

How can you call yourself a Let's Play commentator when you obviously haven't booted up Inanimate Racer Zero, the Japan-only text-and-sound gaiden?

[LateBlt]

I'm an utter failure. I may as well go back to Let's Play Pong.

Always having ties are a sign of bad "rubber-band AI" heh.

[JackiePaquito]

Stunts rules!!

[greytale]

Best. Game. Ever. ... ... Even better than Broderbund's "Stunts".

Nice vid, Mr. Late Blight... that was over 9000.

[LusikkaMage]

Hehe.

Glad to hear you tried it out and liked it a bit! XD

Love your and HerCrabbiness' videos!

...And the sad thing is, some people would consider this game as groundbreaking as the postmodern sculpture, "The fountain."
