Doodle Derby Launches On Steam Today, On Switch Next Week
Publisher Headup and developer Studio Erikson tasked themselves with the project of building “the least realistic car game ever.” A tall order considering what’s already out there, but their finished product, Doodle Derby, is a good candidate for the debate.
Most racing games give you a goal and the car to get there…most of them DON’T make you build the entire track before you do so. Doodle Derby does, and the task is never easy. Make a 2D track of slopes, loop-the-loops and all sorts of crazy obstacles to bounce off of, and you just might ricochet to the finish. If you’re feeling extra devilish, try the multiplayer mode — build the craziest track ever and challenge your friends to complete it…then see if they’re still your friends.
- A challenging single player campaign
- Insane online and local multiplayer for up to 4 players
- Race and build the most epic and insane levels until you make it
- The Doodle Derby level editor: Design your own levels, then challenge your friends to survive them
- Monster Apes! Rockets! Piranhas! UFOs! About 40 track parts and 60 million (unverified!) combinations
- Groovy soundtrack
- Lots of secrets to explore. Unlocking new cars, obstacles and levels!
- Destructible environment incl. strawberries and other fruit
- Background art so wicked only kids could have drawn it – which they did!
Doodle Derby is available now on Steam. A version for Nintendo Switch will hit the eShop on September 11.
