How it feels

A fast, arcade-style racing game with a distinct monochrome pixel art look and playful, non-realistic physics, where helicopter attacks add tension to casual competition.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art style and VR support, but are split on the driving feel, some enjoy the technical drifting while others find the controls sloppy and unpredictable. Content is thin: four tracks, one car, and a quick race and tournament mode. Many say it is fun in short bursts but overpriced for what it offers.
