Editor review
Ink Raceline pairs handling drift with a stamina-style boost meter. Boost refills mid-race on clean cornering and drains twice as fast on over-rotation. The trade is well-tuned; clean drivers gain a real advantage and aggressive drivers pay for it in the long run.
The race modes split into three. Time trial, single race against six AI, and an elimination ladder. The elimination mode is the strongest because it forces a position-aware playstyle; finishing fifth and surviving matters more than finishing first and losing the boost.
I played across the week, mostly on Auckland Auckland ferry morning rides. Race length suits the format. The save preserves your loadout and your unlocked tracks.
The flaw is the unlock pace. The last two tracks gate behind a long-tail race count that does not respect player time. A flatter unlock curve would help. Four stars.
