Butt-Ugly Martians: Zoom or Doom is a 2003 arcade-style racing game based on the TV series, available on PS2 and GameCube. You compete in races using one of seven unique characters, each with distinct speed and handling attributes you must master. Gameplay includes standard competition, Time Attack, Practice, and local two-player multiplayer. Note that progress requires manual saving, as the game lacks an autosave feature.
The primary focus of this racing experience is direct, competitive competition. Players select from a roster of available racers, with the full lineup requiring some in-game unlocking. Each of the seven potential racers possesses distinct characteristics that influence performance, specifically affecting aspects like handling and top speed. Success hinges on understanding these differences and utilizing them effectively on the track.
Beyond the standard competitive races, the game offers several modes to vary the experience. A dedicated Time Attack mode allows players to focus purely on setting their best lap times. For those looking to practice or refine their driving skills without pressure, a Practice mode is included. Furthermore, the game supports local competition through a multiplayer mode, enabling two players to race head-to-head.
While centered on arcade-style racing, the game draws its atmosphere and character selection directly from the source animated series. The roster features characters with inherent statistical variations, demanding players adapt their driving style based on who they choose to pilot.
A critical aspect of managing game progression is the manual saving system. This title does not feature an autosave function. Players must remember to manually save their progress to ensure that unlocks, settings, and achievements are retained between play sessions.
As a main release title, there are currently no officially released downloadable content packs or expansions associated with this racing game.
