MODNATION CREATIONS OF THE WEEK:

This week’s track submissions were collectively the best I have had the pleasure of playing so far. IMHO this was an All-Star caliber week.

SPOTLIGHT TRACK OF THE WEEK
Solaria by prob_alex

prob_alex says: “HEY all… this imo is my most beautiful track I have created.. as it’s a complete fantasy allowing me to create anything I liked… so… I created large floating islands for all of you to race upon.. hope you enjoy this 1”

PatrickJames777 says: “Another masterpiece Alex!! I really enjoy the creativity and style you put into your tracks. Also thanks for another great tutorial…(Keep them coming…) Finally, The Battle of Port Duisburg (last week’s winner), where you race on the big ship was also epic!! Really enjoyed the intricacies and variance of the paths. Keep up the great work!!”

hound247 says: “Really like the design on this one. It also flows really well which always helps. One of my favourite downloaded tracks actually”

Mark drools (again): prob_alex has created back to back “Tracks of the Week”. Last week many including myself deemed his Battle of Port Duisburg track “epic” and it is. NOW what do I say?… this track is “epic’er”?, “epic-est”?, “post-epic”?. Thanks prob_alex, now I have to go out and buy a new thesaurus!

Let me illustrate my review of this track.

Me (approx. 6pm PST): Wifey, kids I’m home!
Fam: yea! How was work?
Me: Wait until you see the track I played today!
(end scene)

Honorable Mention: Shrines of the Jamaicans by BlackSamich

I had a really hard time not voting this a “Track of the Week”. BlackSamich obviously had a distinct vision in his mind with this design. I was still intrigued by the atmosphere he created with each proceeding lap. Nice job! Great track!
