CTruck 2D is a 2D, oldstyle, physically realistic 2D truck game. Predecessor of the CTruck3D vehicle simulator series. I wrote it from zero in C (+OpenGL&GLUT). It has ascii-art and nice graphics version, and a special funny version It's a very basic thing: there are free rigid bodies and springs with strong attenuation/damping. It's very simple and very short code, and collisions of bodies with ground are good and stable. A good simulation of this kind, however requires Lagrangian method. I proposed the Lagrange_motocross as an alternative of this kind. The code is not much longer but the it's overall more complicated, and collisions are a bad issue.

NeuroRAZER es un videojuego de coches gratuito creado para mejorar el rendimiento cognitivo. NeuroRAZER es la versión libre del juego y proyecto comercial Neuroracer. El original(con C) (The Gazzaley Lab) es el resultado de la investigación realizada por un grupo de científicos de la Universidad de California, publicada en la revista científica británica Nature. Según sus estudios los juegos de Brain-Training no cumplen este cometido y su uso no mejora estas capacidades si no que hacen que el jugador mejore solo a nivel de práctica en esos juegos concretos. Los investigadores desarrollaron un videojuego con el que se puede medir y reparar el deterioro neuronal relacionado con el envejecimiento. Se trata de controlar un vehículo en el que el jugador podría tener una única tarea o varias al mismo tiempo.
