Carmageddon Max Pack

Ah... Carmageddon, I think many fans of this franchise got interested in the game through many visits to a friend or cousin who had the game on a pre 2000s windows computer. The game also works on a steam deck, although I found the framerates to be surprisingly lower than expected at times, but you can watch a snippet of gameplay here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKokKyonMqY Where pedestrians just can't walk...

Carmageddon: The Racing Game for the Chemically Imbalanced.

I fired this old gem up for nostalgia's sake. went to the control settings and went "oh... yeah... i remember how bad this was now..." Go ahead, try to change the controls to something that makes sense. "Up, Down, Left, Right..." nope.... "W,S,A,D?" Nope... okay, let me get my controller.. Calibrate and... oh, it's never calibrated well enough to change your controls. the moment you select the control you want to...
