However, the company continued to develop the game until its release on September 9, 2009 (09/09/09) via video game publisher RedSpotGames, in celebration of Dreamcast's 10th anniversary. The game's design was inspired by the team's personal experience with top-down racing games. Good Game called the game challenging and mainly appealing as a retro installment. On the other hand, Die Hard Game Fan called it a "below average game" and while acknowledged decent graphics and good sound, criticized the gameplay, controls, and general appeal.
