How to play
Drift City puts you behind the wheel in a city full of moving traffic, and your job is to slide through it and rack up drift points. The developer describes the game as a realistic drift simulation, and the goal is to become the drift king by earning points and spending them on new cars. Traffic keeps flowing, so the streets are both your track and your obstacle course.
Points are the core of the loop. You earn them by drifting, and drift bonuses appear around the city for certain periods of time. Collecting a bonus increases your drift score, so a clean slide that passes through one is worth more than the same slide without it. The developer says there are 30 achievements to unlock, which add another reason to keep drifting through the streets.
Controls explained
Use W, A, S and D or the arrow keys to control the car. Press Space for the handbrake, which is the key to starting a slide. C changes the camera, and the developer says there are 4 different cameras to look through, so you can pick the view that suits you. F fires nitro, and L switches the lights.
Tips
- Use the handbrake with Space to break traction before a turn, then steer through it with W, A, S, D or the arrows.
- Watch for drift bonuses while you slide. The developer says they only appear for certain periods, so grab them while they are there.
- Switch cameras with C to find a view that makes traffic easier to read before you commit to a long drift.
- Save nitro for open stretches where you can hold a slide, since F gives you a burst of speed.
- Spend your points on new cars. The developer says there are 6 to buy, and each one changes how the game feels.
