Controls are janky. unplayable
I love this game! As with all Kart racers, it isn't about perfect physics simulation, but fun and charm, and this game delivers in spades!
It takes a little getting used to, because once you are in the air you cannot steer (unlike most Kart games), but you *CAN* still turn your wheels, so you have to pay attention, because if you try to turn left in the air, when you land your wheels will be facing left and will suddenly bite as you land.
While there are your standard race tracks where you shoot each other with fun weapons, my favorite game modes are not the races.
One game mode has you playing Soccer, and it's basically like a Kart version of Rocket League. It's hilariously fun in a group!
Another mode is kind of like Plinko from the Price is Right. You drive off a ramp, fling yourself down a hole, and try to land on something good. Any time you are touching a peg, you can try to jump and redirect your movement, but other than that it's down to gravity to see what you'll score.
Lastly, there is a Skiiball mode where you drive off a ramp and try to land in one of the holes worth points.
It's great clean fun to play with friends or kids, and you can buy a 4-pack cheaply.
Huge recommendation from me!
This game is okay. Just okay. I bought it because it seemed to have a variety of activities, wacky physics, and the ability for a group of more than 4 people to join at the same time. And it does have all those things. But the gameplay and mechanics aren't particularly good. The ball physics in sports maps are very difficult to work with. Most of the race tracks are forgettable. If you want to get it on sale and have a couple laughs with your friends, it might be worth it. But if you want a really fine tuned and polished experience, you're better off looking elsewhere.
The game is fun. It has so much replayability. The controls are weird at first. Turning has a delay (for whatever reason). But you get used to it pretty quickly. The game is really fun! I just wish there were more custom maps for me to download. I only got 2 custom maps ;(
It's a simple kart racer with items and custom characters. Basic but a few hours of fun for cheap so nothing to complain about. :-)
pretty good game for the price, me and my friend bought 2 4 packs for us and our friends and family. Its a pretty nice to have a simple game that can run on pretty much any computer you can throw it at. even my cousins 2012 laptop runs it at 100 frames. the only downside is that the controls are a bit clunky at times and i wish they could be a bit more like mario kart.
One gear, The game's carts do have one. Zero servers, zero players and so much wasted potential. Zero gear is a simple kart racing game with the focus on multiplayer. It's a bit of an older game and although it runs well and the graphics hold up, the online section is devoid of servers and players. You can create a server using a race map and fill it with bots but the racing is sadly sub-par and there isn't much fun to be had killing bots across the games various arena maps. Could have been great with workshop support for maps and a better single player experience.
Good
-steam needs more multiplayer kart games
-decent number of levels and the multiplayer seems to still work, just no one is playing
Bad
-no players, no game
-some of the maps are quite rough around the edges
-could do with more powerup variety
-the physics are strange
Zero gear has sadly been eclipsed by other, newer games and with no player base there is no reason for anyone to buy this. Bit of a shame because I would really like to see more of this style of game. Wish I could give it a higher score but the lack of players and poor single player experience is crippling.
1.5/5
Maybe worth $1 if you have some friends you want to play with, but there are no players online anymore. The game is very simple and is like a cheap mario kart. I thought it was going to be a bit nicer of a game, like Mod Nation Racers from around the same time. You are better off getting the Sonic racing games
I have bought 11 of my friends copies of this game over the past few years. This is probably one of my favorite games to play with friends. It's online population isn't much and rarely there are public servers on but if you can get some friends to play this game with you it's a TON of fun!
The influx of bad reviews is due to the lack of servers, and by I mean "lack" of servers, there are none.
The gameplay in this is extremely fun, the game modes that don't include traditional racing are crap with bots.
So if you know how to port forward the game and have friends to play it with then I highly reccomend buying this game.
The physics are terrible and the multiplayer is dead but this is a fun game to mess around in if you have friends to play with. For a low budget game it has a bit of variety. Its offers racer customization, a stunt mode, and goal mode which is similiar but is done better in rocket league.
I enjoyed this game for about an hour because I was playing with my friends but after that, all the maps were getting repetitive.
If you see this on sale for about £1 or so, pick it up, play with some friends and then get bored of it very quickly and let it rot in your Steam library forever and ever.
I've play'd this game a lot with Friends while i was on Teamspeak with them. It is a really fun Game to play, similar to Mario Kart. It has bugs, the handling of the Cars is a bit tricky, but those Maps like "Sumo Arena" are just too much fun!
Get it in Sale for some Bucks, its worth it !
9/10
solid graphics, no lags, good maps, many modes, funny car customization, pure awesomeness with friends :333 and shit it was 99c
ADD A WORKSHOP POSSIBILITY! it would be so fukin awsum
Just bought a 4pack of this game since it's on sale for 80% and looks like a nice game.
From the first hour of gameplay I can easily say its one of my best games on steam by far!
It has various maps, which have their own gamemode, meaning its not just racing!!!
Multiplayer with friends is just amazing :D, (personal favourite is the tag or whatever gamemode)
Hosting and joining is as simple as can be.
Really recommend getting this game !!!
This game has so much potential to be great, unfortunately it has just a few flaws that do enough damage to ruin the game.
You'll see a lot of people give positive reviews without actually playing the game often. I don't know the origin behind this, maybe they got the game really cheap or free and decided it was worth it and that's all that matters. I bought the four pack for $2, but I won't let that impact my review at all because I see the bigger picture that I'm probably not going to play the game a whole lot, no matter how much I want to try and play the game.
The game's positives are many. You have a variety of levels that all have their unique game modes associated to it. Think of it like Mario Kart but much more variety.
You have this unique take of Tag where sometimes the person it loses points rather than gains, which is closer to the traditional sense of tag (the person "it" would want to tag someone) and then sometimes it gets "flipped" where the person it gets points, thus wanting to run away from the other players. If the player reaches zero points, the ability to become it is then in the middle of the map. Additionally, there is weapons in the middle of the map you can gather as well. First player to get a full bar of points wins.
You also have this cool soccer ball mode where you obviously got to get the sockerball into the goal using either your own vehicle or a boxing glove to act like a kick. You have racing and probably numerous more. They're all great ideas and were well thought out.
The game has a garage menu option where you customize your character and vehicle. Not only do you get to select the stuff your character wears or your vehicle style and its wheels, but you also get to customize everything's color with all colors possible using this box and its slider that adjusts brightness (color grid or something, forgot what it's called). The vehicle styles range from your typical vehicle to a tank, my favorite is the skull vehicle. The wheel options are good as well, some are goofy and some are less goofy. I picked the tires with spikes on them to match my skull car. I have the skeleton character and I made him wear the bugging out eyes and a top hat. Yes, you can even customize the color of your character.
The game has an alright soundtrack. It isn't good, it isn't bad. It's just fine. No complaints from me. The graphics style is cartoony, but it's enjoyable for all ages despite it.
Now for some of the negatives that absolutely ruins the game, thus its low price and obscurity. The items the game has does have a healthy variety, not to the scale of Mario Kart or even Jak X: Combat Racing, but the variety is fine. I would have liked to have seen more variety however.The items, however, can also ruin the game for the player using them.
In the game mode, Flipped, you gotta tag people, remember? Well, with the force shield, nobody can touch you and you cannot touch anyone, so how do you tag people when you need to? Flawed design. The force shield also doesn't protect you from everything but rather the players actual vehicle, so bombs and stuff appear to still hit you... unless that's a bug.
Additionally, some weapons help the player you're using them against more than yourself. Bombs, for example, can blow the player forward and they have a fast enough recovery where you still wont catch up to them. Mario Kart did it right where you, despite it being unrealistic, fly upwards more to slow you down. This, I imagine, can be even more frustrating in a racing game where you push a player ahead of you rather than help you. The items could use a bit of a revamp, perhaps even a filter for specific maps. For example, the Kickit map only has punching bags, perhaps flipped should only give the shield to players that can use it for their best interests or not have it at all.
The second worst thing about the game is the camera. I use a controller because mouse and keyboard just doesn't make sense for some games, racing being one of them (wheel>controller>mouse and keyboard). However, both mouse and keyboard have this same issue, the camera is just too frustrating. You could reverse and it IMMEDIATELY snaps backwards but sluggishly continues forward. It should be a bit faster snapping towards the direction you're driving. You could try to turn and the camera feels a bit off, it's hard to see where you're going, especially when chasing someone on an open map. You can use the mouse to move the camera, which is actually good. The controller, however, is painfully useless. It's a fucking racing game and they somehow made the camera horrible for controller players.
The absolute worse of the game that just ruins it entirely, no matter how many positives, is the controls. The controls make the game so unplayable that you'll have to relearn everything you have ever gotten from driving games. The turning specifically. The turn isn't imemdiate, there is input lag. This input lag is frustrating. It makes timing really hard. You know what's worse? The way the turns work. You LUNGE left or right. There isn't a good system of turning because there isn't an easy way to turn slightly left or right, you'll probably zig zag around stuff you're trying to get because of it. There is jumping and *kinda* drifting that *kinda* makes things easier, but not by enough. You'll have to invest a lot of time to get used to the game and even then I don't think you'll fluently be able to drive to what you are targeting.
Online community doesn't exist. No players online. That's probably because of the turning controls and what not.
When hosting your own game, I notice that, even as host, I lag with my friend. I only had problems with him, so that suggests that maybe there is some type of connection similar to Super Smash Brothers Brawl. That's not a good thing, especially since it causes not just me but my friend to teleport, reset all over the place, or go under the map. That's not something the host should go through.
If the developer would invest the time to, at least, fix the camera and controls to be less frustrating, the game would be able to get sales, easily, without having to sell a 4 pack for $2. However, the game seems to be dead both online and the developer side. I really like the idea, but I refuse to say it's worth buying no matter how many laughs I had with my friends because I was more frustrated with the controls than I was having fun. Not to mention the laughs my friends and I were making were more related to how bad and bullshit the game is.
If you're adventureous, you might wanna try buying the game on sale to experience it yourself. If you're looking for a good PC Mario Kart or something, look elsewhere because this is not it.
edit: to update, this game is still shit. However, my friends and I never touch it because other games, like Rocket League, are better. Don't bother with this.
I recommend this game, but there are a few bad things to mention:
1.) There's rarely any servers.
2.) If you play with friends, and host your own server, there might be major server lag.
3.) I think it's been abandoned by the devs, so basically your going to get what you get, and you can't throw a fit.
Some upsides:
1.) There is currently a dedicated server set up by someone that runs continuously and has almost no server lag.
2.) It's extremely fun if you can get a bunch of friends together to play. Imagine Mario Karts, but on PC and focused around online multiplayer.
It's probably best to only get it if you have friends you can play with. I think this game is definitely worth the $5.
This game is very worth the cost, its like mario kart but mario kart doesn't hold up to the beautiful standards of Zero Gear, if this game is ever 100% off you should consider buying it
This game was a great surprise. It has a lot of different game modes, the items are well-designed, the controls are responsive and it's a lot of fun to play with friends. A solid game overall.
The closest you'll get to Mario Kart on the PC. The developers NimbleBit are now renowned for their mobile games but this is where they started. They may deny it now but they really had something here and it's a shame to see that there is no additional support. There could've been tons of DLC in-terms of both cosmetic items or tracks. The online feature here is incredible it's a great game to play with a group of friends, myself and a few friends played this every day for weeks before it got repitive. Even then a few of us loved it so much we tried to create our own tracks by looking through the map files built-in to the game. If the four pack is on sale it's a must buy for sure but it will get repitive after a while.
Zero Gear is like Mario Kart for PC. Tons of customisation, great characters to choose from. Nice to play with bots and multiplayer. Whilst most people would prefer to just get out their DSes and play the actual Mario Kart, this is a flawless alternative for PC gamers!
