Background Story

In 2020 the earth had suffered due to constant terrorists fighting and rogue world leaders. Allegiances had been shattered and the worlds economy plummeted into decline. Companies closed, and mass unemployment ensued. Crime was up 80% and lawlessness had become a way of life. The earth had been pushed into a modern dark age...

The sporting world had all but ceased, and sports of any kind were played on the streets and in alleyways. One sport though was on the rise! It had captured the hearts of the people living in the slums, a distraction from their hard lives. It was like a new Roman Coliseum rising up amongst the ruins of the old cities. This arena was built for cars, not just any cars... VW Camper Vans! The Vw Camper Wars had begun.

Young boys now had a dream, to buy a VW Camper Van, sport it up and race in a demolition derby style duel. If you win races, you win money, which brings better Camper Vans and better upgrades. With the dream of one day becoming the champ!

Introduction

Camper Wars is a game based in the near future. The idea is to have a 2d Top-Down racer featuring VW Camper Vans in a demolition derby style race. Vans can be customized with upgrades including armour, weapons (to disable other vehicles) and van upgrades. The player will win money after winning races, which can be spent on upgrades and new vans. Weapons to disable vans can be purchased with certain upgrades.
