Goafer Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) Drift Stage is a modern evolution of the classic arcade racer, bringing the gameplay up to date a bit while keeping the late 80's style intact. In these street races, speed reigns supreme. The art of the drift is easy to learn and immediately fun, but it's true depth and challenge are hard to master. Drift Stage will feature a roster of cars inspired by the mid-late 80's and early 90's racing on tracks ranging from city streets to coastal beaches and many in between. The game comes fully loaded with single-player modes including a character oriented career mode, circuit races, and leaderboard chasing time trials. Local splitscreen and online multiplayer races will also be in full swing. Drift Stage is currently targeting an initial PC/Mac release with a possible mobile/console release following. Coming to Kickstarter next week apparently, it's basically an 80s racer with HD PS1 graphics. I'm just downloading the demo now, but apparently the handling is spot on. If it's as good as I've heard, I'll be backing the shit out of it. A demo is available from their website. Edited January 5, 2015 by Goafer
