Fast Racing League (stylized as FAST Racing League) is a racing game developed and published by German video game developer Shin'en Multimedia and released for Wii as a WiiWare title in May 2011. It is the first installment in the Fast series. Fast Racing League is a fast-paced futuristic racing game often compared to F-Zero and Wipeout. However unlike other racing games it features a "phase shift mechanic" which allows the player to switch their vehicle between light and dark phases. These can be used to take advantage of colored pads on the track to boost the player's speed or launch the vehicle into the air which only work if the vehicle is the same color. The player must collect energy orbs scattered across the track to fill their energy meter which allows them to switch phases adding extra challenge to the game. If the player attempts to drive over a boost pad of the opposite color their vehicle will be drastically slowed down.
