I'm sure some of you would have played Carmageddon in the past. I know I have. For those that dont know the idea of the game was to race......but there was a lack of rules. You could either win be destroying your opponent or you could actually race to the end (but who actually did that....boring). Each car was either designed with a dangerous weapon attached to it or just had enough weight or speed to do serious damage to their opponents car.
My idea is to design our own Real Life Carmageddon Cars.
The rules:
* One main weapon theme/system (a large set of deadly blades or a giant drill on the front, but not both). Although I think we best allow small spikes and details as well as a main weapon, else the cars with look a bit basic.....We want the cars to look MEAN!!!!
* No projectile weapons to stick to the original Carmageddon games (guns, canons etc) the device must be attached to the car.
* Must be based on a real life car/van/lorry cab. No construction/industrial vehicles.
* No aircraft or boats.
* Needs to have some form of propulsion (not necessarily wheels, maybe tracks, a jet etc)
Technical rules:
* Poly Count - As high as your imagination.
* Must be done from scratch after the start date.
* A quick extra point, I think we'd best say what car our death machine is based on before we start too
Start Date - 30th September 2007
End Date - 31st January 2008
If your not sure about carmageddon cars I have attached a picture of the players first car from the last carmageddon game in the series (TDR 2000).
