Press release:
London, UK – Drive and deliver as co-publisher SECRET SAUCE and solo developer S.K.9.8 have launched vaporwave driving adventure ADRIFT on Windows PC via Steam!

Race against time and the temperature as you deliver a mysterious “Energy Core” across a top-down world. In your offroad vehicle, you’ll drift and powerslide through blisteringly hot but dazzlingly beautiful environments including atmospheric oases, glowing neon plains, and winding canyons.

In ADRIFT, you have the freedom to explore and chart your own path across one map with multiple biomes and unlockable areas, uncovering thousands of shortcuts and secrets of this forgotten environment.

However, this desert is dangerous and you’ll need to stop off at cooling stations to ensure that the clock countdown or the heat meter doesn’t catch you out.

Key Features of ADRIFT

Purple Rain: Inspired by the vibrant hues and lighting of the 1980’s, the colorful and dynamic art style of ADRIFT’s world encourages you to get lost in it.

Let’s Get Physical: Plot your own route and use the physics-based isometric drifting and driving to navigate the dunes, forests, cityscapes, and plains in style, accelerating and handbrake turning in your agile offroad truck.

Under Pressure: Embark on a perilous adventure to deliver the Energy Core before the desert heat causes your cargo to go catastrophic, sending you to your doom. Make use of safe havens and cooling stations dotted across the map to keep the adventure (and your safety) going for a little bit longer.

ADRIFT is out now on Windows PC via Steam for $12,99 USD, £10.99 GBP, €12,79 EUR with a 25% launch discount.
