Do I know a better way to do this? Not really, as I am not a game designer or programmer, but given my experience with the touchscreen I thought I should note the issue here. Sure, it was manageable with some patience, but lots of other people were complaining how difficult the touchscreen could be in their creative process. I wondered if this was just me, so I did some research on various community forums and to my surprise I wasn’t the only one having difficulty. You also have the option for the game to “auto-populate” the surroundings of your tracks.Īs I made my way through the various creation processes, I noticed that the touchscreen controls were somewhat finicky, so much so that I had a hell of a time placing items on my created tracks or I had difficulty getting through various menus. Of course just like the PS3 version you can decorate the tracks with interesting scenery such as buildings, forests, lakes, and pretty much anything else that you would imagine, just as long as you have it in your library of stuff to use. This is far more intuitive then having to lay down track pieces or use a controller to guide the track creator. Creating tracks is particularly interesting, given that the Vita’s touchscreen is used to draw your track on the screen.
As you race through the career mode you open up more items for you to use for your creations, and the more you play the more creative you can be with all the options that become available to you.
Although the creation suite for most items is not as intuitive as the PS3 version, the ability to create karts, racers and tracks can be pretty easy. Just like it’s big console brother, ModNation Racers: Road Trip allows you to create racers, karts, and tracks. One of the main features of the ModNation series is that it allows you to create, and this portable game is no different.
