A downloadable game for Windows

Alpha build (nearly beta)! Not representative of the final product, of course

Includes the most sophisticated drift racing AI ever developed (with the possible exception of Sophy, since that now knows how to drift). Let us know if it's too hard to beat!

Multiplayer included! Joining is automatic, just run the .exe (if you get a firewall prompt, hit allow and restart the game). Multiplayer is currently for free roam only, race events are still solo.

Discord for updates, multiplayer chat, and voice https://discord.gg/KXfe8TQugK

In-game tutorial included!

Tips:

  • Green arrows on the minimap are other online players!
  • The filled in circles on the minimap are garages, and they all provide different things, check them all out!
  • Boosting while in a drift will rocket you into a tighter turn, and you'll accelerate faster going sideways. Saving your boost and driving fearlessly can give you massive speed
  • AI cars will match your vehicle performance, so better upgrades will make the game more difficult
  • Hold handbrake + accelerate with 4WD cars for precision drifting
  • Off-road tyres are more unstable on roads, but this allows for prolonged drifts
  • Search the map for hidden money. If you're struggling for cash, there is a stash hidden to the north at an interesting archaelogical site.
  • You can replay races for more money and switch cars at your personal garage, marked by the purple icon on the map
