When I decided to play all of them again. But I didn’t make the time to play them until now. The game launched as a beta in 2014, got released in 2015 and then got a rerelease in 2016. I have tried to get all these games legally, I had done it with most of them, but Carmageddon was one of these elusive games that was difficult to find and buy, so I gladly backed this campaign. I have an excel spreadsheet where I keep track of the games I have played on my PC, and it has a column where I tell if this was a game I played on a pirate copy during my student years. More than a decade later, in 2012 Stainless Games recovered the rights for their game and launched a Kickstarter campaign to make another sequel.

And then the TDR 2000, I liked it even less… I’m not sure if it didn’t run well on my PC or crashed or what… but I barely remember playing it once if at all… Carmageddon II: Carpocalypse Now may had better graphics, and 3d models for the pedestrians, but there was something charming, expressiveness in the sprites of the original, that didn’t show up in the polygons. I have to admin that I didn’t like the sequels as much as the original and didn’t play them to much.

One another reunion a few weeks later somebody shared the patch to play with 3Dfx cards which made the game even better, and eventually the sequels too. The game campaign was already completed, or I had the cheat codes, so I was able to play on any map at my leisure.
When the reunion was over, I kept playing the game alone at home and had a great time exploring the maps and running over everything.
We used to share games and in one of these reunions this friend brought Carmageddon, and all of us liked it a lot and played together.

Eventually when more classes required use of some software we started to get together with our computers, (there was space enough in the pool table to set six desktop computers) we used to study, work and take some breaks playing multiplayer games in LAN. His parents had a big room in the house with a pool table that had a hard top cover where we sit around to study. Also, around the time, I had a group of friends and we used to meet at the house of one of them who lived closest to the University. The concept of combat racing however sounded more attractive, I had played a game in 1995 called Slipstream 5000 which I liked to play for a time and the idea of Carmageddon piqued my interest. I had played several racing games during my life (Night Driver, Enduro, Pitstop II, Pole Position, Indi 500, Test Drive, Test Drive III: The Passion) but they were never a genre I liked to play to much. So, he told me about this irreverent racing game, where you can follow the race circuit if you want, or you can roam over the map and then just crash and destroy the opponents to win, where you can run over any pedestrian and also win the game if you kill them all. The first time I heard about Carmageddon would have been around 1999, even though the game was from 1997, I haven’t heard about it until one day while I was working as an intern in the IT support office in my university, a friend was telling me about the games he had played and recommended me this one. (First time playing Daikatana for anybody curious) I decided to play again this game I haven’t played in like almost 20 years, and also to play those rewards for a Kickstarter I backed several years ago. So, I have played Carmageddon for over three months… starting on the first days of September, and paused it around the start of December when I started to play something else.
