Description

Space Ribbon is the most unique racing experience to be developed in recent years. Set in space players chase a giant robot creature, either Panda or Tiger which spits out race track as it travels..

The procedural track generation means players never race the same track twice! Navigating a twisting, turning, unpredictable racetrack as it appears ahead of you is more engaging and intense. Having a limited perception of the upcoming track makes this is a true test of driver skill.

Our cars not only look great but they have a handling model that is fun and masterful. Drifting and slipstreaming are key to the player's success in the game. The majority of races are short sprints that are action packed as players battle against an aggressive AI system.

Progression in through the game is separated into cups each containing 3 races. Winning races unlocks upgrades for the cars and winning cups unlocks new vehicles. This is an accessible game with a learning curve that lends itself to newcomers to gaming while understanding the challenges player veterans expect.

Space Ribbon is one of the visually striking games to be released this year in the indie gaming market. It blend anime esque giant robot pandas with retrofit hotrod rocket cars into a psychedelic space extravaganza. It is unafraid and experiential in its construction, a genuine indie gem.
