A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Built for the Hexcode Showdown Jam with the theme of the Funky Future 8 color palette. The palette breathes vapor-wave landscapes to me, thus inspiring this landscape runner game.

Pilot your motorcycle with deft precision, dodging between cars and trucks while enjoying sick electronic rhythms and retro inspired visuals. Orrr just sit back and watch the sunset.


Objectives: 

Get the highest score you can! The faster you drive the faster you gain score, but the harder it is to maneuver and dodge traffic. Note: If you're moving too slow you might not gain any score and can even lose some!

Extras/Quirks that may or may not be obvious: 

  • Yes there is a night mode, but can you last long enough to reach it ;)
  • The scoring system is built to handle near infinite scores. Just how far can you get?
  • The cars and trucks produce wind currents that can push you around if you get too close.
  • Be careful about getting too close to the side of the road, the gravel shoulder on this road has been known to pop tires ;)
