Kinetica is a 2001 racing video game developed by Santa Monica Studio and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 2.
In order to progress through the game, the player must obtain first, second, or third place in the first season races.
Characters can perform stunts on the ground and in the air to add to the boost meter to gain access to faster than normal speeds, though this meter can also be filled by getting one of the three boost power-ups from the power-up crystals.
"[10] Gary Whitta of NextGen called it "An intriguing twist on a largely played-out genre, although the Autobots-style racers might turn some gamers off.
"[12] Four-Eyed Dragon of GamePro said, "Despite its setbacks, Kinetica is a decent racer worth trying.
