Development[edit]

Ignition's soundtrack and sound effects were produced by Christian Björklund.[4]

Reception[edit]

Ignition received generally favourable reviews. Many highlighted the game's entertainment value, a very good first impression and detailed graphics. Some mentioned its similarity to Micro Machines 2 also featuring "small cars", and the game's simplicity was both seen positively and negatively (lacking content) in comparison.[5]
