Divine Drifter

Nobody knows the true use of the traffic circle. People just keep going around it, using it for, “lane merging,” or, “getting somewhere else.” But what if… the traffic circle WAS the destination? That angle, those obstacles, this… aesthetic. Everyone else is wrong. Show those plebeian passengers what it’s truly like to be a Divine Drifter.

• Slide sideways through 6 traffic circles so you can show everyone in the city your driving prowess
• You can’t leave until you prove you’re the coolest cat on the road by:
  • Drifting close to other vehicles
  • Scraping paint off the uncool motorists
  • Drifting under semi trucks
  • Tailgating
  • Breaking roadblocks and knocking out cones. Nobody likes a road with no freedom.
• Drifting increases your score multiplier, but if you drift alone for too long you’ll burn out and lose your bonus
• Compete for a live high score with other Drifters through an online leaderboard

Note: The menus must be navigated with a mouse, but the car can be controlled with either M&K or a gamepad.

All music original! Soundtrack can be found here: https://broodmachina.bandcamp.com/
