About This Game

Draw a race track, then race by drawing vectors. Velocity carries over. Physics on paper.

How to Play

**Setup:** Draw a race track on graph paper with start/finish line.

**Gameplay:**

  1. Cars start at starting line
  2. Each turn, change velocity by up to 1 in each direction (x and y)
  3. Draw a line from current position using your velocity
  4. If you hit the track edge, your turn ends (crash rules vary)

**Velocity Example:**

  • Start at (0,0) velocity
  • Accelerate to (1,1) - move diagonally
  • Next turn: can go (0,0), (0,1), (0,2), (1,0), (1,1), (1,2), (2,0), (2,1), or (2,2)

**Winning:** First to cross finish line.
