If you happened to have played Team17’s top-down racer ATR: All Terrain Racing for the Commodore Amiga or Amiga CD32, then you may be excited to hear that its original programmer Jamie Woodhouse (known online as @mrqwak) is currently working on a similar title for mobile devices, called Retro Racing 2.

The game is a sequel to the original Retro Racing, which was a title released for iOS back in 2012 that received average to positive reviews from publications like Pocket Gamer, AppSpy, and Touch Arcade, and currently holds a 5-star rating on the App Store.

It is essentially a top-down racer, similar to ATR, with the goal being to navigate around courses collecting power-ups, avoiding hazards, and unlocking shortcuts in the hopes of earning a decent enough position to advance to the next race. The original Retro Racing notably featured 2-player split-screen multiplayer and it seems like for this next entry, Woodhouse has gone a step further incorporating a 4-player split-screen co-op mode that can be played with a single iPad.
