Rough Race Ideas

After finishing some research on my level and figuring out what my theme was, I started brainstorming and roughing out some stunt ideas. I messed around with the backflip idea on paper, but couldn't quite see how it could work in a game where I don't know what kind of physics to expect. So that was scrapped for now. However, I do think the stair thing may be fun. It would be a "platform" descent off of a ledge, where you must keep your vehicle balanced on descending "steps" that are arranged a bit chaotically. I feel this will take a lot of play testing.

Also, additional obstacles I have thought of are pits, moving stone columns, and fire balls. The placement depends. The third lap is going to add more columns in choice moments of the track to get in the player's way, and an additional stair sequence towards the finish line, this time with moving platforms.
