Fast Race Of Insane Drivers – A small weird driving simulation RPG game
You don't have to install FROID to run it; if you downloaded the .jar file, it includes all necessary libraries (that is, Clojure) and you just have to run:
$ java -jar froid.jar
If you want to run it from the sources, you need to get Leiningen and run:
$ lein run
(in the appropriate directory).
Just start by creating a team, which you do by clicking on "New". You will then be prompted a team name, and three driver names.
The next step is to raise your drivers stats (clicking "Edit drivers" by spending XP (experience points). The different stats are:
-
speed-straight: the speed of the driver in straight lines.
-
speed-soft: the speed of given driver in soft turns.
-
speed-hard: the speed of the driver in hard turns.
-
overtake: the capacity of the driver to overtake the previous one.
-
block: the capacity of the driver to block someone trying to overtake her.
-
skill-qual: how a driver fares in qualifications.
-
skill-crash: the ability of a driver to avoid crashing.
Then you just have to click the "run" button and watch how your drivers behave. Each driver gain XP at the end of a race if they manage not to crash; you can raise use those XP whenever you want (by clicking on a driver name), but it will only be taken in consideration for next race.
