Super obscure trivia: originally the kitchen jump was over a boiling pan of water but it was deemed too risky for kids so we replaced it with a goldfish bowl (I worked on this game). Also the house layout for that level was modeled after a real house belonging to some family friends.
@@joshsuko8185 Really cool to have someone who worked on the game here, thanks for the interesting fact! You guys did a great job, this was one of my favorite games as a kid, and I still love it to this day!
My 4th grade class had this game for our class computer, and on snack time we could play it. We all got stuck at the outside track, and could never beat it. Until our one friend amazingly got passed it and we finally got to the party room. But by that time snack break was done but our teacher wanted to see how far we could get. Aaaaannnd that’s when a fellow asshole of a classmate said “snacks over” and turned the computer off outta no where. We were all pissed at him for dayyyyyyys😂
there was probably a 2-3 year gap between me getting this game as a kid and a friend telling me about a hidden track. "you have to click all over the logo and eventually the music will change." absolutely rocked my world
Nihilfist ahh, pre-rendered video... at the time it was way ahead in visual appearance... but now it cannot be played in HD resolutions because it is simply a 480p video with a car sprite on top of it!
I played the shit out of this game when I was a kid, never unlocked a single level, played the initial 3 over and over and over and over again. Man, this brings back memories.
You just perfectly described my childhood with this game. I appreciate that man. I also dumped hours into its create a map mode if you remember that too.
I just want to point out the blatantly obvious just so everyone can enjoy this video tho the full extent... This is a video playthrough of a 17 year old game, It has no commentary and isn't on a super hyped channel... Yet it has nearly 8,000,000 views. I congratulate the creator of this video and wish him the best, this game is like a slice of my childhood and honestly seeing this on my "Should Watch" playlist made my day. ^_^ Thank You!
It's wild to see how many views this gets. This was game was just made by a small team in a tiny norcal town in the upstairs of the post office building. We never could have imagined how it would continue living on the internet like this 20+ years later.
This is extremely nostalgic. As a kid I played this 24/7. Made my own tracks outside and around my house. If they made a new more modern version I'd play it for sure
I'd say that Unleashed and Unleashed 2 are basically the modern equivalent to Stunt Track. Now if they made a modern equivalent of Micro Racers i would be playing that over and over again!
It’s amazing when you revisit an old game and see the little tricks that developers used back in the day. Each level in this game is a pre-rendered video with a 3D Model of a car in front of it, not an actual place you can drive around in.
Cars and tracks were very smooth in my memory but the maps look the same to me, expecially the outdoor map. This game lived in my memories for over 20 years and only today i decided to find a video about it on UA-cam. I can't describe how strong emotions i felt watching this video because everything else from 20+ years a go came back into my memory like it was yesterday.
I played this game so much when I was about 5. I would always ask my parents what their favorite cars were, then they'd come over to the computer and pick one based on their favorite color. I'm pretty sure this game was all I'd talk about. Good times. My parents were so patient with me haha
This was one of the first games I remember playing.. I played through this when I was about 3 or 4, and after that, creating a track like one of these was a childhood dream
I just saw hot wheels unleashed advertised today and it immediately reminded me of playing this game all the time in like 2006. I haven't thought about this game in almost 15 years, I pretty much forgot it existed. Wow this really takes me back
I remember how obsessed I es with this game when I was a kid, somehow deep in my psyche I still remember some of the background music and watching the gameplay again after so long hit me right in the nostalgia.
Spihk heartbust!? Spihk heartbust can you tell Sarah From The Holy Bible to tell The Terminator to spihk heart bust all all time mates internet friends and all all time internet friends for People in a white t shirt along with other people who may have been standing right near Zumo's brother's bathroom doorway dad's brother's look alike's little brother during a football game between Zumo's dad's brother's bathroom doorway dad's brother's look alike's brother and Bolts Server Marranda !!!!¡!!!!¡!!!!!
I'd just been browsing through Steam and ended up on your channel, and discovered this here video. Ohhhh this game, back when I was younger and never cared about lag thinking it was a "slow-mo" effect, and graphics were completely ignored if the game was fun. And it was. I distinctly remember all the tricks you could do, how flips had seemingly infinite velocity, the insane tricks you could do on the sandbox level, crashing all the time, making pointless levels, unlocking new cars, never beating the last level, the useless cars, and of course little boy shnowshner turning off the lights quickly every time the fireworks played. Nowadays the game looks so blocky, buggy, slow and easy you can't help but wonder how you loved this game, but also know exactly why you did; we never cared. And that secret dev texture level would've killed me if I'd found it back then. Being the Hot Wheels fan I was, this game had so many hours on me, beaten out only by Roller Coaster Tycoon which could keep me for 8+ hours straight. Only difference is that I can play RCT today, but this game sadly runs even worse and can crash more than just the 'wreck your car' way ;c Man, if there is someone who knows how to get this game working on Windows 7, I'd been the happiest man alive. also mario6493 plz marry me
God this brings back memories. This was the first computer game i had when my family got our first Windows computer in 1998. Between this game and Flight Sim 98 I spent way too much time in front of the screen 😂
Wow, I know I had some foggy memories of playing some Hot Wheels game as a kid. Suddenly having this show up in my recommended and bringing back those memories is wild!
Total memory unlock. So many hours were dumped into this game. They did so good making this. I love all the little details in the levels throughout the house.
I played this game so much as a kid in the 90s. Loved the music in it. Never was able to finish the game room/casino level, and didn't even know there was a Planet level until watching this video. Thanks for that trip down memory lane.
Thanks for bringing back childhood memories! I remember my mom gave me this disc for Christmas when I was like 7 or 8, and I treasured it so much because it was my first computer video game, she knew I loved Hot Wheels tracks and gave me this game!
Ahhh, the 90's. Playing this, Jazz Jackrabbit, Stunts, Road Rash and Test Drive Off-Road during weekends all day long. When games were less about "realistic" shit, and more about actually having FUN! Absolute respect for those who lived this wonderful era in PC gaming.
That was so awesome!!! I have this game and was never as good as you are in this video. Great memories. I am pretty sure I have every actual Hot Wheels car that is used in this game. Do you remember what one came with the box when you bought it? There were 2 or 3 of these video games Mattel made dealing with Hot Wheels. This is the only one worth mentioning though - great video!!!
God i think i was 3 or 4 when i first played this game on the daycare computer, remember taking turns with my friends at the time, god knows where they are and i hope theyre all doing okay, what a blast from the past, damn
I love how UA-cam recommendation bring this up...ahh my childhood memory. Remember that my parents didn't buy many toy cars for me since I was child(coz I always ended up ruined these😅), so when my classmate got one of this game, I took it home and ran it on Windows 95, played the sh*t out of this game, enjoyed as much as I can, life was good.😊 And until now, I realized that the first car you get is a blue Speed Blaster, which my parents bought a green one for me when I was very small child, a nice little coincidence!😂
What❓I never knew there was a secret level under the Mattel logo‼️ I remember unlocking all the cars and the garage graphics and headlights on the cars, but not that secret level. Wow. I missed out on that.
I used to be so obsessed with this game as a 2-3ish year old, it was probably the first game I ever played. I was so horrible at it, often repeating the first level about a thousand times, but I never ever got tired of it. The memories 🥹
I remember this game came on a disc with a hotwheel shirt my parents bought for me. Crazy how the neurons in my brain fired right and brought back memories from when I was like 4 or 5 as soon as I heard that intro
Ricky Webster Same exact games here. I couldn't stop playing. It's probably been 15 years since I've last seen either one of them, so this video is bringing me back in time.
Sheesh the nostalgia!!🥲 Remember being a kid with my Caprisun trying to beat the game and build the coolest custom track!! The greenhouse was always my favorite 😂😅
This game is deeply so ingrained in my memory that I even remember the music on the bedroom level syncing up with the results screen in a weird way like it did here
I actually think the game is great, and I still do. It's an old game, so don't question why stuff looks blocky and possibly why the tracks is an illusion (Possibly just a video clip in the background.) Anyway, what's sad is that the game we own is corrupted... Freezes somewhere on a jungle level.
God that first level, the attic, and the back door playset lives in my head rent free. I don’t think I unlocked a single level other than those three lol
Because 2024 is just degenerate clickbait content. Everyone also would rather see the internet in its golden days. Rather then see this horrible world today.

what happened to the real version of the TV
I love how I spent days and days as a kid trying to finish this game, but I never did. Yet here it is, complete in 20 minutes.
Reminds me of a guy who beat tony hawks pro skater 2 single career in five minutes and took me like days to beat the same single career.
Yep. There are so many games I played as a kid that lasted me weeks or months. Now I could play through them in a few hours lol
Always got screwed over on the bed room jump that makes your car flip in the opposite direction.

I am 12 and i can get all the cars, and finish the secret track + tournament mode in a single run!
It has taken 21 years for me to finally see "The Planet" level, but it was worth it
It taken me almost 2 minutes to find it XD
Never knew it was a thing, would of had a stroke if I found it when I was little.
No, be be ause yo didn’t play it.
there was probably a 2-3 year gap between me getting this game as a kid and a friend telling me about a hidden track. "you have to click all over the logo and eventually the music will change." absolutely rocked my world

The game looked and played way better in my memories.
Nihilfist Me too.

The best part is its just a glorified kids imagination game. The spirit of it being a kids toy playland makes it timeless
This game will always hold a special place in my heart
This is extremely nostalgic. As a kid I played this 24/7. Made my own tracks outside and around my house. If they made a new more modern version I'd play it for sure
They did make a modern version of it, it's not the same though
@@OctoDizzyUnleashed 2 is really good and better than Unleashed
I'd say that Unleashed and Unleashed 2 are basically the modern equivalent to Stunt Track.
Now if they made a modern equivalent of Micro Racers i would be playing that over and over again!
A million years later, I learn you could drive on one wheel. Awesome playthrough!
*2
If I remember right, staying on two wheels for too long causes the car to crash automatically.
20 years later and I'm just now discovering there was a secret level. Lol
Right!? All of those hours playing as a kid, thinking I finished the game and saw everything...
Well… I guess that’s why they call it secret lol
It’s amazing when you revisit an old game and see the little tricks that developers used back in the day. Each level in this game is a pre-rendered video with a 3D Model of a car in front of it, not an actual place you can drive around in.
still awesome for its time
@@Droopsnooot
Absolutely. And to my 1st grade mind, it was friggin’ magical either way.
The cars aren't even 3D! They're pre-rendered as well. Pretty amazing
@@WesHawkins0
True! They didn’t have realtime 3d models until the sequel.
It took me like half a minute to notice, at first didn't think about it then I noticed how weird everything looks

Lollol yes!
Yes it did

Hell yeah finally someone on UA-cam who can do some damn tricks. It was all about the tricks in this game.
That intro was always so magical
what a rich ass white spoiled kid bought out all the remaining hot wheels in existence?
Am I crying over a video game? Man I must’ve loved this type of videos when I was little
I could never get passed the pool table level when I was a kid, no matter how hard I tried.
Total memory unlock. So many hours were dumped into this game. They did so good making this. I love all the little details in the levels throughout the house.
Yooooo I haven’t thought about this game in damn near 20 years. Had to have been one of the first games I ever played
Level design was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
A kids dream wow so cool.
I'll have to say, a lot of effort has been put into the presentation of this game. And the music's good, as well.

Sheesh the nostalgia!!🥲
Remember being a kid with my Caprisun trying to beat the game and build the coolest custom track!!
The greenhouse was always my favorite 😂😅
Well.
I have to say, finding out that one of my favourite games from my childhood had a seventh level has been a bit of a shock.
The sound effects are such a nostalgia trip omg
This game is deeply so ingrained in my memory that I even remember the music on the bedroom level syncing up with the results screen in a weird way like it did here
I completely forgot about this game its like a hidden memory
So many memories :)
oh my god i forgot how much i needed this. thank you good sir. thank you!
0:17 Oh my god, This house is made of tracks and hot wheels cars
oh man the memories are all coming back this game was so much fun back then
Aw now that takes me back :) memories.
Holy shit THIS is the random game I played as a kid that stuck in my mind
Its funny how your brain remembers this in 240hz and then when you watch it its like..... 30hz and 15fps LOL!!!
LOVED this game man.....
Holy hell, no kidding. That new hot wheels game reminded me of this, and I have to say, the rose-tinted glasses were STRONG on this one.
This reminded me of my childhood, I used to play it when I was very young and I had lost this game, I found it back!
ALL THE NOSTALGIA
Let’s not forget how good the music can be 🔥 just nostalgia bops. I also love the fireworks that you get after pulling off a satisfying stunt.
This game seemed so much cooler to me when I was young..
I remember my older brother having this game many years ago and used to always play it all the time. I love that game.
All my childhood in 1 video
Nostalgia overload to the max for me, I got so excited every time I played this game on Windows 98!
I actually think the game is great, and I still do.
It's an old game, so don't question why stuff looks blocky and possibly why the tracks is an illusion (Possibly just a video clip in the background.)
Anyway, what's sad is that the game we own is corrupted... Freezes somewhere on a jungle level.
Why do I remember this looking 100x better
I actually miss when games were this simple and innocent. No blood, no violence, no enchantments, just simple.
God that first level, the attic, and the back door playset lives in my head rent free. I don’t think I unlocked a single level other than those three lol
This game looks so bad I love it.
Man this game is amazing!! It looks good for a 21 ye old game
I was convinced this was a fever dream! Thank you!❤
so much nostalgia
I played this game so much as kid!!
memories...
I remember watching these videos over and over when I was little. Nostalgia.
Who's in 2024?
Literally everyone alive right now
me
I use to watch this 7 years and it was one of my favorites, glad to see the video 😁
Why does youtube recommend 12 year old videos now?
Because 2024 is just degenerate clickbait content. Everyone also would rather see the internet in its golden days. Rather then see this horrible world today.

Why yes this randomly popped into my feed after not thinking about it for 20+ years, why do you ask?
I’m always happy to see one of my top childhood games show up on my feed! I wish HW unleashed felt this cool
