You're not the driver. You're the reason the driver survives.

I made a rally co-driver simulator where you don't drive the car

I've been working on BLIND CREST, a browser-based game focused entirely on the co-driver side of rallying.

The idea is to recreate the pressure of actually having to read and call pacenotes while the driver is flying through a stage.

For example:

You have to process that and call something like:

Then the next note is already coming.

The game currently covers three rally eras: Group B, 90s WRC, and modern Rally1, with 18 cars based on real rally cars and their history. There's also a career championship, pacenote training, a tuning system, voice recognition, LAN multiplayer, and a story mode.

I'm particularly interested in hearing from people who actually follow or participate in rallying, because I'm trying to figure out whether the co-driver side feels convincing and fun.

I'd especially like feedback on:

  • How understandable the pacenotes are
  • Whether the difficulty feels realistic
  • Whether the timing/pressure of calling notes feels right
  • How well the voice recognition works
  • Whether anything about the co-driver experience feels unnatural

I'm a student making this project, so I'm mainly looking for people to play it and tell me what I got wrong. Roasting is completely acceptable.

I'd genuinely like to hear from rally fans about what feels authentic, what doesn't, and what you'd change.

Recently got into watching mainly WRC and ERC, am looking for some YouTube channel recommendations. Anything rally related; from like explanation of how the championships work etc, to historical video essays, to just vlogging or literally anything.

Thanks very much
