Arcade Drift Car Physics Explained (from Parking Garage Rally Circuit)
In this video I explain the methodology and techniques I used to make the physical-yet-arcadey physics in my game Parking Garage Rally Circuit, including a (possibly misguided) observation about Mario Kart that influenced my entire process.

Physical-yet-arcadey is such a hard balance. Curious about the Mario Kart observation. Was it about drift being a commitment the player enters on purpose, rather than something that emerges from the tire model? That framing changed how I think about steering assists.
