Make your own game
Harbor Drag Racing was built by Grant Sylvester with the Cinevva game creator: describe the game you want in chat, watch it get built, and play it in your browser minutes later.
Remix Harbor Drag Racing opens the real game in the creator and forks its actual files, chat and design doc, so you start from the code rather than from a description.
Read the build brief for Harbor Drag Racing
Cinevva's analyzer read this game's design doc and its source, then wrote the brief below. "Make your own" hands it to the game creator as your opening message, so you start from a real spec rather than a one-line idea.
Create a playable browser 3D arcade drag-racing game titled “Harbor Drag Racing.” Use a dark cinematic night-harbor setting viewed from a trailing, slightly elevated third-person camera behind the player car. The scene should be built with simple low-poly/clean 3D geometry and a moody navy-blue palette: a long straight asphalt quarter-mile strip over/along dark blue water, steel-colored shoulders, white dashed lane markings, a red start line, and a white finish line. Add repeated harbor structures/stands along both sides of the strip, with red seat bands, tall steel light poles, and glowing cyan-blue lamps. Use soft fog in the distance, cool ambient/directional lighting, shadows, and an almost black-blue background. The player vehicle is a stylized blue/gray open-wheel race car, with a second futuristic race car as the rival in the adjacent lane; both begin at the starting line and move down the straight track as the camera follows the player. The game is a quarter-mile drag race, distance 402.3 meters. Begin on a garage/start screen with the title “Harbor Drag Racing,” the subtitle “Build the fastest garage on the waterfront,” an orange “Enter the Strip” button, and a short description that this is a playable browser racing slice about tuning, launching, shifting, and winning cash. Once racing, keep the HUD over the 3D scene. At top-left show “HARBOR DRAG RACING” and “NIGHT HARBOR // QUARTER MILE.” At top-right show garage funds, initially,200, plus “Rep 0 · Tier 1.” Provide a left/bottom race setup panel containing: Launch Control with a selectable target of 3000, 3800, 4600, or 5400 RPM (3800 selected initially); Race Setup “Quarter Mile”; Car “Harbor Starter”; Transmission selector with Automatic initially selected and Manual as the alternative; engine/grip stats initially “Power 280 · Grip 0.86”; a horizontal race progress meter; buttons for “Race,” “Upgrade $400,” and “Buy Sports,000”; and a control hint indicating Space launches and R/Shift shifts, with tap buttons available for mobile. The starter car has power 280, grip 0.86, and weight factor 1. An upgrade deducts $400 initially, then costs $550, $700, etc. for successive upgrades, increases power by 45 and grip by 0.015, capped at 0.98 grip. The sports car costs
50 and 5 reputation. Increase tier by one for every 100 reputation. Include a “Race Again” button that resets both cars and starts a new burnout/countdown sequence. Keep the interface as translucent near-black navy panels with thin blue-gray borders, rounded corners, white/light-blue text, orange primary buttons, yellow money, cyan/green highlights, and compact uppercase labels. Make the layout responsive: on narrow mobile screens, stack the setup panel above the dashboard and keep all controls tappable while preserving the full-screen 3D harbor view.
