Advanced Controls

Barrel Roll

Any time your vehicle is in the air as a plane, or in a jump as a boat or car, you

 

can perform a barrel roll by moving the right stick (or pressing the A, D, W and

 

S keys). Barrel rolls can be performed left/right/forward/backward depending

 

on the direction the right stick is pushed or the A, D, W and S keys are pressed.

 

Barrel rolls help you avoid obstacles and grab Pickups that would otherwise be

 

hard to reach.

 

Chaining successful barrel rolls during a jump will earn you a boost. Doing a

 

“close call” barrel roll in the air will also earn you a boost.

Drift

Drifting is a controlled skid that allows you to take tight corners at high speed.

 

As you approach a corner, keep your finger on the accelerator, steer into the

 

corner, then press and hold the drift button to drift in that direction. You can

 

continue to make limited adjustments to your direction using the left stick (or

 

the Left and Right cursor keys), and the drift will continue until you release the

 

drift button.

 

Continuous drifting earns you a boost, which will propel you away quickly

 

when you release the drift button.

Transform

At certain points around the tracks, you will see a large blue ring to pass

 

through. Doing so will transform your vehicle into a boat, a flying machine

 

or back to a land-based vehicle as necessary to successfully navigate the next

 

portion of the course. Most controls are identical to those of the land-based

 

vehicles, though airborne steering has an additional axis of movement: push

 

the left stick down (or press the Down cursor key) to head upwards, or up (the

 

Up cursor key) to head downwards. This control can be inverted via Options

 

in the Main Menu.
