Nios

Nios is a space racer built around mouse movement. You steer a spaceship through top-down, 3D futuristic anti-gravity obstacle courses, racing opponents and aiming for the highest score. The demo includes 5 routes; the full version is described as having over 100.

Steering and speed

Your spaceship points toward the cursor and rotates around its vertical axis, letting you stop or slow down suddenly. Keep the cursor far from the ship for wide, precise turns, or close to it for tight turns. The ship starts at moderate speed, and you can skim along side walls without hitting them to gain speed and bonus points. Colliding with a wall costs points in proportion to the impact force.
