Triband :
Indie studio Triband (WHAT THE GOLF? + WHAT THE BAT?) is re-inventing the wheel by launching their game WHAT THE CAR?, a game about a car with legs, today! They are celebrating the game’s release with a brand-new trailer. The game, previously released on Apple Arcade, will be available on Steam and is priced at $9.99 USD.
About The Game
You’re a car with legs! Race through hundreds of unique levels: jump, fly with jetpacks, climb tall buildings, deliver packages, and so pretty much everything you can’t do in a normal racing game.
It’s not all about the need for speed. Explore the many islands to meet new friends, find hidden treasures or solve quirky puzzles (Hint: Look behind the waterfalls!). You can also make your own wacky levels, share them with friends and family, or climb the leaderboards of unhinged levels made by other players.
WHAT THE CAR? was initially released for Apple Arcade last year and won Best Mobile Game at this year's prestigious DICE Awards.
