A top-down racing game set in a community that holds an annual festival called Rua, where illegal races take place to determine the best driver in the Baixo do Reginaldo favela. Anne, contaminated with toxic waste from the removal of parts from the nearby landfill (as she is a mechanic), starts on Rua with the Lílas car, built from parts from the landfill.
It's a racing game where the character Anne faces various challenges in Rua races. She will use nitro, brakes, and acceleration to win races that have an enemy. As Anne progresses on Rua, she earns more money and can manage the cars in her garage and the cars she can buy in the shop.
This is an independent, non-profit, open-source video game project, created in Blender (BGE - Blender Game Engine) with Python 2 and later exported to Godot Game Engine 3.5. The project aims to disseminate, in a minimalist way, through video games, the reality of urban communities affected by inequality, such as favelas, ghettos, peripheral neighborhoods, and other housing spaces for poor, Black, Indigenous, and working-class people. In this way, we highlight the capacity of games to disseminate important ideas that have been forgotten throughout history and to make these marginalized populations feel represented in the game, with almost all the modes of expression so characteristic of their daily lives. By achieving this objective, the project becomes an example of socially critical production within this medium of information dissemination: video games.
