Bumper Racing
A downloadable game for Windows, Linux, and Android
Fun little top-down arcade racer developed for PC and Android. Optimized for mobile experience. If you encounter problems with low FPS, try turning off particles. Some of the tracks are still in development and are missing collision boxes. More content to come soon. Open to new ideas to make the game better. No controller support yet.
Update: JAR version car movement is calculated on separate thread to allow for the game to be playable with lower frame rates than 60 FPS.
PC keys:
WASD or arrows - accelerate and turn the car
ENTER - select or advance in the menu
ESC - back or exit game.
Android:
Automatic acceleration
Left/Right screen touch will turn the car

Hi and thanks for this game!
As an extra note for Linux users, this application is compatible with Java 8 runtime environment installed while is incompatible with more recent ones like Java 11.
In an Ubuntu-like system (Lubuntu 18.04 in my case) the following packages are required:
- openjdk-8-jdk;
- openjdk-8-jdk-headless;
- openjdk-8-jre;
- openjdk-8-jre-headless;
Once installed, open a terminal in the game installation directory and:
- give to "Racing.jar" execution privilege, that is execute "chmod a+x ./Racing.jar;"
- If no other version of Java are installed at same time, game can be started with:
--> "java -jar ./Racing.jar";
- Otherwise, game must be started specifically with the 8-th Java runtime environment version: again in an Ubuntu-like system, execute instead "/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/java -jar ./Racing.jar";
