Here's another one for the weekend. I’m not 100% sure, but I think the following game has been improved and then released as an upgraded commercial version called Aquadelic GT. You are getting the work in progress version which is free.
Aquadelic:
Aquadelic is a game based on our work-in-progress project Yaga!, although bit different
Multi player game offers just race and free style. If it's not enough, you can add AI controlled players to max four players.
There are four different boats that differs not just in appearance, but also in driving capabilities. Only one boat is accesible in single player modes by default. But such a detail like winning the race unlocks other three boats.
Aquadelic is result of joint work of Hammerware and Al!eN, music is done by Cognize Coke.
Nice 3D graphics and sound as you race boats around this really scenic countryside, the controls for the boats are very precise in there movements what can take a few goes to get the hang of them, tapping the left and right arrow keys seems to be better than holding the buttons down, to do a sharp turns release the accelerator. Racing the other boats can be tough as they give no mercy while trying to push you to the edge but they are not impossible to beat, after learning your way around the course the game becomes more fun, this game will be great to play with your mates as the split screen is
good and will make the game last longer, just a shame there is not more courses to test your boating skills...
Controls:
Arrow keys
Enter : Select
Esc : Exit
Take to the water in Aquadelic GT, a funky new boat racing game with an emphasis on fun!
