How it feels

A frantic arcade racer where you blast rivals with rockets and slow time to line up precise shots while unlocking gear by climbing leaderboards.

What players say

Players compare the handling to Rocket League but with its own twists like unlimited flip timing and bullet time. The game is a time trial parkour racer with a high difficulty ceiling, especially for three-star runs. Some players note the need for controller tweaks, while keyboard users report input delay.
