This is a fan-made, non-commercial project inspired by Beach Buggy Racing 2. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or approved by Vector Unit. All rights to the original name, assets, and characters belong to Vector Unit. The goal of this project is purely educational and for fun. Note that this project could be taken down at ANY time as it is breaking their Terms of Service.
If you are a Vector Unit team member, please read the whole readme before taking action.
Beach Buggy Racing 2 is a well-known game developed by Vector Unit and loved by many. For technical reasons, notably power-up physics, it is not possible to add multiplayer to the original game.
As of now, Vector Unit has not developed such a multiplayer version. This project exists to fill that gap, as a fan tribute.
Note: I do not earn money with this app. If you wish to support my work, consider donating here. 100% of donations will be used solely for development costs, such as renting dedicated multiplayer servers.
I acknowledge that this project technically violates your Terms of Service, including:
“The user agrees that he will not modify, translate, reverse-engineer, reverse-compile or decompile, disassemble, create derivative works of, or use data gathering or extraction tools in connection with the Services.”
and
“The user will not plagiarize, reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell, or otherwise exploit the Services, in whole or in part, for any purpose without Vector Unit’s express written consent.”
With that in mind, here are the principles I will always uphold:
- If asked by Vector Unit or its representatives, distribution of this project will stop immediately.
- While this project uses Vector Unit’s assets, they will always remain encrypted within the application to discourage unauthorized extraction.
- I did not reverse-engineer Beach Buggy Racing 2. Assets were provided by a third party who wishes to remain anonymous. All game code is entirely my own.
- This project will never be monetized. There will be no paid downloads, IAPs, ads, or promotions. The only optional support is through external donations, which will never be advertised within the app.
- The motivation behind this project is the community’s strong desire for a multiplayer version. It is intended as a tribute to your work, not competition.
