Description: Downtown Drift is a racing game where the player takes on the role of a get away driver. Your goal is to land drifts to score as many points as possible. Every time you successfully drift a multiplier increases, so the more drifts you do in a row the more points you get. However there is a catch, anytime you hit something your multiplier resets and you are back to square one. To make things worse, local authorities are out to arrest you.How to playHere are a couple of tips to get started:Your goal is to drift while getting away from police, doing only one and not the other won't get you far.The map has the size of 5x5 downtown blocks with traffic lights at each intersection. If you drive down a road and see no more traffic lights ahead: slow down or get ready to drift, otherwise you are driving into a wall!The game is relatively dark, both for aesthetic and difficulty reasons. Use the traffic lights at the intersections as a reference point to get a sense of distance.The more damaged your car is, the slower it will drive. You can repair the car by picking up blue repair kits that spawn randomly at intersections around the map.You recharge your boost by drifting.ControlsHere are the controls for the game (Keyboard/Controller):Accelerate: W / Right TriggerBreak: S / Left TriggerSteer: A&D / Left StickHand Break: Space / B ButtonBoost: Left Shift / A ButtonThe controller has to be specifically enabled in the options menu (game->use controller)
