First released on the 80DS handheld in March 3, 2017's Overdrive is a retro racing game that will be available digitally on Nintendo Switch on May 7th. This was reported by the developers from the studio Insane Code, who also presented an incendiary trailer.
According to the description, 80's Overdrive is a 2D pixel art racing game designed to take players back in time when 8- and 16-bit consoles and arcades ruled the world. A career mode is available in which racers compete against each other on various tracks in speed racing or special missions. There are even police who can pursue the player.
The game has six cars in the spirit of the supercars of the eighties, with the corresponding names: Penetrator GT, Intruder Turbo, De Loan and so on. You can upgrade the engine, suspension and tires to improve top speed, acceleration, handling and braking. The car can also be equipped with a police radar and a nitro booster.
In addition, you can test your skills in the time trial mode, when you want to drive as far as possible in a given period of time. It is possible to create your own tracks using the built-in track generator (according to user-defined parameters), so that you can easily share them with friends. At the same time, the tracks in the game are implemented in eight visual styles.
The developers emphasize that all pixel art was created by hand, and the soundtrack consists of 18 musical compositions played on a synthesizer in the style of the eighties.
