Dotstream

[charlesr]

Did a search for "dotstream" and "+dot +stream" and couldn't find a thread. Can't believe there isn't one already, so if someone finds it, please let me know so I can merge them.

Got this the other day from the trading folder. It's ace. Such a novel concept. The review here explains it well. The trade off between speed ups and lives is fantastic.

The music is pure old school goodness.

If you lag behind, you have limited paths because they are taken already - it's really tense. Great take on the racing genre. Thumbs up from me.

There are some first impressions, albeit brief, in the later posts on this thread.

It certainly is a great game. By far the best of the bit generation series.

I'm a fan of Dotstream. It captures the essence of a racing game in glorious retro fashion. Great difficulty curve as well.

Lovely game, though I think I preferred the atmosphere of Orbital more.
