I participated in the Ludum Dare Gamejam a few weeks ago and I just wanted to share my project with you guys.
It is far from perfect or polished but it works and it is 1 playable level.
It is basically a tweaked 3rd person character controller and some fancy materials but see for your self
right now I am watching the Blender Character course to make my own 3d character model for this game so there might be an updated version later this year.
You can download it here: Laser Racer
PS.: It is not easy!
