I would argue that the biggest annoyance is there is no drift correction. Games like Mariokart and Crash Team Racing automatically turn your kart somewhat after a drift, making it so you continue in the direction your kart was moving in the drift. Laps does not do that. I HATE drifting in this game simply because it sends you into a wall. I want to fully drift around a corner, not drift halfway and have to let go otherwise ram into a wall or be stuck in sinkhole hell. By the way, by driving on the walls in sinkhole, you can mess with your karts collision and end up on the unused floor beneath the entire track. Me and my friends dubbed it 'the farlands' and its always hilarious when you end up there. We're still looking for other ways to get to the farlands in the other two tracks.

[@JustAGuy-vt3lh]

A way that I found works more often is holding in the opposite direction as you drift, and then turning it a bit in the direction you’re drifting so the cart turn. It still isn’t entirely perfect, but it works a lot more often than just drifting.

She always makes sure to include positive feedback and though she lists the faults with something she tends to do it in a way of "here it is in how it can be improved." rather than just raving about how bad something is, and she's usually far more critical of projects made by bigger companies like this and takes more time with smaller projects made by individual developers to offer more constructive feedback on improvement, and she remains encouraging. There's never any "Just stop" with her, it's always "Just do better" and I appreciate that.

The game has some identity, but I don’t think it quite pushes its identity far enough.

Lore additions aside, the characters feel out of place. Also making a design decision based on the title’s pun is dangerous. You have to actually do five laps?

I'll be honest, wasn't exactly expecting much out of a FNAF kart racer, just the fact that this is a thing is insane to me, But given this showing from 3 months ago, it somehow still seems disappointing.

But on the Other and more serious hand, if this is something they're expecting people to pay money more, it seems to need a fair bit of work....

[@yocapo32]

Honestly, my biggest issue with the game so far has been that it's piss easy. Now, I am a very seasoned (not necessarily good) racist, but I've never really liked kart racers because they rely way too much on your luck instead of your driving skill, but after remapping the controls (Who's idea was it to put throttle on left trigger?), I managed to win my first race with a 19 second lead, which is massive, to the point where the other animatronics didn't even show up in the grid, the game genuinely gave up on tracking them. Another thing is that the game genuinely feels like it can't decide if it wants to be a normal or a kart racer, you have all the mechanics of a regular kart racer (Drifting, boosting, jumping, and boost pads), but with a physics model that doesn't really lend itself too well to forcing the player to engage in those mechanics, most if not all corners can be taken easily with your regular steering, and while I honestly quite enjoy that, there's really no reason to drift besides gaining a tiny boost, but that's _also_ hampered by the massive speed loss when you're drifting, which, again, is realistic, but doesn't really lend itself well to a kart racer, and it doesn't help that there's also just a regular boost you can use at any time, making the drift boost irrelevant unless you're trying to save energy; there are some good innovations and ideas, the Nightshift mode is an interesting way to break up the gameplay, but it doesn't really do much besides the Big Bad Torso following you around if you have low battery, and most are just dumb stuff like separating jump and drift just to be different from Mario Kart. Also, Midnight Motorist always crashes on the second lap for me.

I really hope the game could be a lot better when it releases next year. Considering Clickteam was asking for help in the game's help wanted post with Lolbit from way back, I feel they're still currently in deep development with the game since they may not have as much hands/skill to develop the game to a proper state at this time period for a demo. I see a lot of potential in this game. I really like the style/look of the characters, the references, the gameplay (which I feel does a good job of intertwining the elements of the series into a kart racer) and I feel it's all held back by the bugs, proper steering/drift control and a lack of info on certain things (like the character class). The UI could be a lttle more expressive and better. And they also NEED to add a map. That's a basic fundamental thing MOST kart games have in order to show the player what's to come in the track. Here's to hoping Five Laps at Freddy's could have a proper, successful launch next year

I'll argue that demos are NOT a vertical slice of the game, you're thinking of a TECH DEMO-- the thing you show to possible investors/bosses/managers to pitch your project, not to players. A playable demo can be anything from a prototype build (Chrono Trigger's kiosk demo, the RE2 demo that was on RE1 Director's cut, a lot of Spaceworld/E3/DS download play demos from the Wii Shop) to a segment of the full game (Wild ARMs, the Sonic Adventure 2 demos, the Playstation Underground Brave Fencer Musashi demo) or the whole game but with a playable time limit (like the Smash Brawl demos or the Final Fantasy 8 demo).

The character designs are fine (except Balloon Boy), but the models definitely don't do them justice, and unless the game gets a LOT of work and polish before release (hoping for a late 2025 release at the earliest to give them time), I don't see this game being much better or worse than another cashgrab-style Mario Kart impersonator, even if it's not a TOTAL cashgrab (again, some things like the character designs and core gameplay mechanics are fine and have potential imo) Also I'm writing this AS I listen to the video from 0:00 onwards so if any of this is mentioned uhhhhh oopsie daisy

I thought this was gonna be another one of those "I don't like it, therefor it's trash" sort of videos where it gives 18 reasons why their opinions are facts actually. Let's just say I was pleasantly surprised.

My suggestion for changing the sound of getting an item box would be to replace the current sound with the toreador's march and have glowy eyes flicker in the item visualizer until the march stops and the item you got shows up at the corner of the screen

"What do you mean we're supposed to release a demo in two days?! We're struggling to release it on the intended release date!"

[@therealkomasan]

The hate for the game is so stupid, this is an EARLY build of the game and just because it's a demo doesn't mean it's going to be a sample of the full release, The version of the demo is version 0.24 WHICH IS VERY EARLY IN DEVOLPMENT. The problems like the sinkhole was because it was the most unpolished map in the demo so they know the problems with that. They are actively trying to fix bugs and improve the game so instead of trashing on it actually help them and tell clickteam about bugs and other problems instead of just insulting it. I think it's a fine game and people have ridiculous standards for a game that most likely has a few people working on it. Plus it's a racing game not a typical fnaf game so it's harder to work on. And it's on an completely different engine which they aren't used to. They wanted to make it in clickteam but their Firefly engine needs more work before tackling a game of this scope. SO they decided it was best for the FNaF community to use something else. They are very passionate about the game and we just know the release day is in sometime in 2025 so it most likely isn't coming out any time soon. The game is amazing and they clearly care about the game and what to give something awesome for the FNaF community but the FNaF community hate everything that's different

3:10 Hold up. Not only does my character selection impact my class, not only do I have different karts with different stats - but *neither* of these are clearly explained, and the only way to work it what I want to play as is to test each kart with each racer and try to remember all the different stat impacts?

[@sunsetcorvid]

12:31 the surge of joy i felt knowing i am not the only one who is enraged by how the fnaf series has fucked over animatronic culture. it's so bad that if i want to learn something new about animatronics there's ALWAYS fnaf. god forbid i want to make a homemade animatronic, because all the results will be be "i made fnaf in real life guys that's crazy!!!" you know what's actually crazy? aaron fechter accidentally making a bomb that blew up half his warehouse that's 10x more interesting than making shit designed animatronics (sorry, i do love the fnaf franchise but by god do i get heated when i talk about how much it's screwed over animatronic culture)

[@roycopeland4705]

Once fixed, this will be a pretty cool cart racing game

[@ib_enjoyer11037]

honestly, i genuinely enjoy playing the demo, but i also think i got incredibly lucky for some reason. I have around 2 hours of playtime on the demo, and I've never encountered any issues with AI. I've also went out of bounds only once (in the same spot in the Sinkhole as you did), and had issues with a spawnpoint also only once in the same exact spot shown in 17:48 . regarding 16:25 i got 2 of these errors, but one of them was in the first map (fields something?) and the other one was on the finish line of Midnight Motorist, not on the highway. I also don't have a lot of experience with racing games and I've never played any of the mario kart games, so that may be why my expectations are lower which also mixed with me being lucky enough to avoid most of the issues. it shocked me when i got a notification with this title, but i also agree with most of the cons listed unfortunately. as naive as it can be, i genuinely just hope to see a decent, playable and enjoyable game come out next year and that it'll be a nice surprise to everyone edit: just got the fatal error on the finish line of Midnight Motorist again. i didn't get hit by a single car on the highway beforehand, so it's not the highway that is the problem

[@betafurret1503]

Honestly, the only two issues that I’ve seen with the demo, is the huge amount of bugs, and the lack any kind of ingame tutorial. Other than that, it’s honestly a super fun game.

[@zenqmeister]

One thing I can add in as someone with experience in kart racers (mainly CTR): 90 degree corners being the only ones where you can actually drift consistently is ridiculous. If you try to take longer corners in one drift the car will just keep turning into a 180° and into a wall (and that's on lowest steering combo)

[@leilarandall9518]

No! Be nice to the grandpa car! He's doing his best!

[@axolotlfairy2473]

This is definitely a me thing/minor nitpick but I HATE how we went from security breach, which had PERFECT in universe marketing for fazbear ent, to a game that makes the characters animatronics in the text. I know it's not super serious but I want more things like Freddy and friends on tour where they're allowed to just be characters and not have to be robots- if you wanna put characters like springtrap or mangle in here why not make them hidden behind codes you can find in game to add to the retro feel they're going for? Also as someone who loves both fnaf and irl animatronics i would watch your video on misconceptions about animatronics FNAF has spread

[@ZaneBaker-h4p]

No offense, but this is a demo, not a complete build. And I understand that yes, at the moment, it’s a complete buggy mess. But again, it’s a demo. Compare it to say… the original Grounded 30 minute beta. It was broken, glitchy, and you could barely do anything, but there were great bones for the teams to work with. And not to mention, even if this game sucks, let me put it to you this way. Games trying to make light of the history of Fazbear are minimized for profit, so if anything, it’s damn near in character. Again, not trying to invalidate your opinion, nor your thoughts. Just trying to give the benefit of the doubt.

[@bananadoppiotm1088]

And here I thought that it were Five Lap Dances at Freddy’s, truly it’s a sad day

[@TheKillerMoth]

Wait, this was a DEMO?? I thought it was just a troll game 💀

[@asteroidrules]

I would genuinely enjoy to watch a full length rant on all the ways Freddy's animatronics are unlike the real ones. It's not exactly a surprise that their in-game depiction isn't true to the real thing, but it is surprising how many people seem to think it is.

[@theotherlucas]

The bugs are annoying but I thought the game was really fun and I'm looking forward to the full release

[@shiethegal]

Having a FNAF racing game WITHOUT ROXANNE WOLF should be considered a criminal offense.

[@paulitastic2460]

I have better gameplay and lore ideas for the game You start the game as an ordinary kid who decides to participate in a new Freddy's Fazbear's Pizza attraction: a kart racing competition against other kids and animatronics. The first race has no dangers, the only objective is to win the race. However, in the next races the other kid competitors have "unexpected accidents" and die one by one. Their tormented souls end inside the animatronic competitors, which become aggressive. Now, your second objective is to survive each race trying to not be caught by any of them, either by dodging them or throwing objects at them. Each time you die or you don't end the race being 1st, you get a game over jumpscare. Finally, it's revealed that every murder was planned by Springtrap/William Afton (the last "boss" of the game) and you have to escape for your life. In the end, the souls of the kids discover who the real murderer was and they help you defeat him.

[@HiddenDarkHM]

There ARE some really fun concepts here. I think the jump mechanic, the idea of the night mode, the one really cool track, the CONCEPT of the wolf anamatronic coming after you and having to keep your battery up to protect yourself from it, a couple of the items like the doors, and the racers having different classes, are all fun different things that COULD help it stand out among other cart racing games. I also really really want another wolf animatronic, so sue me. But there's just... so much, and I think the design of the wolf animatronic feels like someone's barebones first attempt at modeling. Not to mention the uh... actual models (Except Foxie's, I love it immensely). I know it's just a demo and I don't want to judge it TOO harshly but OH my goodness that is a.... that is a rough demo.

[@AnnCatsanndra]

DO NOT LET CLICKTEAM PUBLISH YOUR INDIE GAME IT'S A DEATH SENTENCE (yeah I know that's not entirely relevant to this video, and that this game was made *by* Clickteam, not just published by them. But that doesn't change the message here.)

[@orca717]

Why?

[@kindlyevilbgm]

Why though?

[@Garfieldfancatylsyt]

What did clickteam do?

[@AnnCatsanndra]

@@orca717 As a publisher they tend to put very little resources into actually advertising and marketing the games they publish, they tend to be sluggish in actually following up on promised services, and they tend to struggle with console ports when they offer that. I am not going to name any specific examples, but if you go through their list of published games and look at what those developers have to say about their experiences with their publisher, this is a Very common thing with them.

[@TheHipsterSnek]

I can't even finish Midnight Motorist. Which REALLY sucks for me! Pizzeria Simulator was one of my favorite FNAF titles of all time. The game just crashes constantly. Once, when I was on the last leg of lap 4, near the finish line! It was so perfectly timed I thought it was an in-universe "glitch" story event akin to the glitch segments of FNAF World! And while I didn't encounter the bug in The Pit that you talked about, I had a generally rough time navigating it. And I didn't see the character 'class' thing til you mentioned it. I just played as Chica for the most part and so it happened to work in my favor. I want this to be good but this demo is not putting its best foot forward.

The magnet actually do something, it takes a chunk of an opponent's battery in front of you and gives it to the person with the magnet. The ONLY reason I know this is because it happens to be somewhat common for the npcs for me, resulting in me losing some of my battery.

[@Typ1cally]

I played the game for 6 minutes got into 0th place, game crashed, reloaded game crashed when i selected chica 💀

[@RealmsCrossMyths]

Timestamp 12:31 Robot insides not called what you think? That's normal. In Medabots it's called a tinpet or tin-pet depending on the media. Though, endoskeleton does make more sense. It does act as the skeleton of the animatronic, and does go on the inside of the animatronic's chasis. Also, they are likely calling them endoskeletons as "mech" can mean something else, and they don't want to confuse people. For example; what game comes to mind when I say bird people? Now how about if I say harpy? Rito? Chozo? Okay; let's try with something more common; What comes to mind when for zombie? What if we call them necrons? The decayed? tarnished? living dead? necromorph? Suddenly you have a name for something so common that you can market to people who play your game - they'll see a zombie marketed as a necron and more likely associate it with your IP instead of "oh, another zombie from some random franchise". I do agree that the giant wolf animatronic doesn't much look like it's an endo.

[@bricrowave]

oh my gosh you SPEEDRAN this video

[@theinsaneone_]

You know its bad when I can only play 3 games, one to try each of the cars and see if they are different, before everything starts breaking. I had the game crash on me twice after 20 minutes of play, and after friends didn't believe me, I streamed the game, picked a track, and lap three got an error. Haven't even played the demo for 25 minutes, and only got to see two tracks before "Fatal Error Has Occurred" messages started to pop up whenever I try to play it. I was advised to stop playing else I risk my entire pc killing itself. Buggy state of launch is an understatement.
