Hotshot Racing
Hotshot Racing is a blisteringly fast arcade-style racing game fusing drift handling, razor-sharp retro visuals and an incredible sense of speed to create an exhilarating driving experience.
Developed by racing game veterans SUMO Nottingham and Lucky Mountain Games, Hotshot Racing is an all-new driving experience which revives the classic arcade gameplay of the 90s and thrusts it into the modern era.
16 racing circuits provide the twists, turns and straights conducive to searingly quick racing. Take in coastal, jungle, alpine and Las Vegas desert environments, with each course modelled with the most vivid colours and blue skies for miles.
Time Trial and Grand Prix modes cater to those who like to compete in classic racing formats, while ‘Cops and Robbers' and ‘Drive or Explode' modes offer exhilarating new ways to play.
Each mode is available in single-player, four-player split-screen and eight-player online, while Time Trial is single-player only. Single-player modes run at a blistering 60FPS to deliver one of the fastest depictions of racing possible.
Smash lap records to rise-up the global online leaderboards or download ghost laps to match your racing lines against the very best.## MEET THE HOTSHOTS
Keiko, Xing, Mike, Alexa, Aston, Toshiro, Marcus and Viktor - eight speed addicts that have dedicated their lives to the pursuit of being the greatest racing driver in the world.## CATCH THE DRIFT
Drifting is crucial in Hotshot Racing. Boost charges as the player drifts so maintaining it for as long as possible is vital to preserving maximum speed throughout a race.## DRIVE OR EXPLODE
In this mode each car has a bomb attached to it. Drop below a certain speed and BOOM! The trigger speed gets faster and faster, forcing players to maintain impossibly high speeds.## COPS AND ROBBERS
Robbers evade the cops. Cops catch the robbers, and in doing so convert them to the police side, leading to an exciting test of skill for the surviving criminals.## A WELL NEEDED BOOST
Earn boost by drifting and slipstreaming opponents and unleash a one-shot hit of speed to leave them in your rear view mirror.
Hotshot Racing is a racing game that was made as an homage to classic arcade racers, such as Virtua Racing or Ridge Racer.
The gameplay heavily relies on drifting, as that's how players gain boost energy and overtake sharp turns. Boost energy is also collected by slipstreaming rivals. The game has several game modes: Grand Prix, Single Race, Time Trial, Online and Local Wireless. Single Race mode itself has four game modes: Arcade (ordinary races), Cops and Robbers (where cops try to catch robbers and robbers try to get away with money), Drive Or Explode (driving at maximum speed in order to stay alive while overtaking rivals) and Barrel Barrage (trying to eliminate rivals with explosive barrels and stay alive). The game has three difficulty options: Normal, Hard and Expert. The game has 4 locations with 5 tracks in each location, making the total number of tracks 20. The game has 8 characters, with each having 4 cars with different specifications. After winning races, players are awarded with money. Players can spend money to customise their characters or vehicles, however, customisation options are purely cosmetic and don't affect cars' stats.
The game has a distinguishable low-polygon artstyle that is reminiscent of early 90s arcade racers. Each character represents a certain nationality: for example, Keiko is Japanese, Viktor is Russian, etc.
