Nice 80s Aesthetics
Verified purchase
The game looks and sounds wonderfully synthwavy, but I have to admit, gameplay wasn't really my bag. I loved Horizon Chase for comparison, but here, driving feels rather slow, the other cars behave weirdly erratic and the whole structure of the career seems overcomplicated.

Cool game reminiscent of the arcade games of the past - except this one won't eat a roll of quarters just to see level two. I did however find myself washing a few cars just to get my entrance fees in the beginning. Neat game

Really good game, It's the same as those ancient racing games that were made before the 3D engines were a thing or were on old cellphones. Rem playing something like that on my Sony Ericson back in the day. Anyway, It has really nice outrun/80's aesthetic, nice soundtrack and nice visuals. Negatives are that it feels repetatible very quickly, selection of cars is small, races are unreasonably long and the 2D space trying to simulate the illusion of 3D is nausieting and makes my eyes sore. It's fun for few hours. I play it like mobile, something to jump on while waiting. It's worth a try, i'd say solid 6/10.

80's OVERDRIVE is a 2D pixel art racing game that pays tribute to the arcade classics of the era, such as Outrun and Rad Racer. You can choose from six different cars, each inspired by iconic models like the Ferrari Testarossa and the DeLorean, and customize them with various upgrades. The game has two modes: Career mode, where you compete against other racers and earn money to unlock new tracks and cars, and Time Attack mode, where you race against the clock and try to beat your own records.
