VELOCITY

One craft. Infinite road. Zero brakes. Thread a carbon highway at terminal speed, dodge the barriers the tunnel throws at you, and hold your nerve as the needle climbs.

A real game, rendered every frame on a <canvas>. Press start, steer, survive. The longer you last, the faster it gets.

VELOCITY is a keyboard- and touch-playable arcade game rendered on a canvas. You pilot a craft down a neon tunnel and steer left or right to dodge oncoming barriers while the speed steadily increases. Use the left and right arrow keys, or the A and D keys, to steer; press Enter or Space to start and to restart after a crash; press P to pause and resume; press M to toggle sound effects, which are off by default. On a touch screen, drag across the game or tap its left and right sides to steer. The game is visual and requires sight to play. Your final score is announced on the game-over screen.

AD

Steer

Hold to slide the craft across the lanes. On mobile, drag anywhere on the track or tap a side.

EnterSpace

Start / restart

Kick off a run, or jump straight back in after you wreck. No menus, no waiting.

P

Pause

Freeze the tunnel any time; it also auto-pauses when you scroll away or switch tabs.

M

Sound

Opt-in blips and crashes, off until you ask for them. Nothing autoplays.

Four ways to burn

Pick your poison

The demo ships one endless run, but the fiction dreams big. These are the modes VELOCITY is built to hold.

MODE 01

Neon Drift

The one you're playing. A bottomless tunnel that quietly turns the speed dial past what any human should tolerate. Every dodge banks you a little more score; every wall ends the party.

endless · live now
MODE 02

Gauntlet

Barrier walls with exactly one gap. Read it early or wear it. Reflexes only; the tunnel stops being polite.

hardcore
MODE 03

Time Attack

Ninety seconds, one leaderboard, no mercy. Every near-miss buys back a sliver of the clock.

score chase
MODE 04

Zen Cruise

No barriers, no fail state, just you, the grid, and a synth pad. For when you want the road without the fear.
