WHAT THE CAR?

Released: 9/9/2024

NOT YOUR TYPICAL RACING GAME You’re a car with legs! Race through hundreds of unique levels: jump, fly with jetpacks, climb tall buildings, deliver packages, and do pretty much everything you can’t do in a normal racing game. BE A CAR AND EXPLORE THE WORLD It’s not all about the need for speed. Explore the many islands to meet new friends, find hidden treasures or solve quirky puzzles. Hint: Look behind the waterfalls! LOADS OF WAYS TO RACE You will be racing, but it's never what you expect. Hint: Just go with the flow OKAY, IT GETS REALLY SILLY You’ll be flipping burgers, fishing, swimming, and singing CAR-aoke! Hint: Don’t talk to the laser cow CREATE YOUR OWN LEVELS Make your own wacky levels, share them with friends and family, or climb the leaderboards of quirky levels made by other players. Hint: Adding cute bears and speed pads that go vroom works every time! 🚨 DISCLAIMER: This game is for entertainment purposes only and will absolutely not improve your driving skills in any way. If anything it’ll make you worse. No one on the development team even owns a car. What the hell is a clutch? 💣 SPOILER ALERT: ALERT: A spoiler is apparently a thing you can attach to the back of a car to make it look cool... Who knew?!
