Race The Sun is a high-speed game that uses simple controls and is set in a procedurally generated world. The goal is to get the highest possible score by racing into the sunset, avoiding obstacles and enemies, and collecting speed boosts and other powerups to help you along the way. You fly a solar-powered craft, and the game ends at sundown, if you can make it that far!
Runs well on modern hardware.

Please fix the game by restoring the servers or allowing local map generation
Why would I buy any other games from this developer when they so easily abandon the game? I get you need to cut support at some point but at least make it generate worlds locally... Now we're stuck on the same level again and again...
This game is a prime example of why gameplay > graphics every time. Simple yet addicting gameplay loop. The dashing is physics/momentum based and feels great. The standard mode is hard but not too punishing (there is also a "hardcore" mode). You really have to dial-in and get your controls right for this game, you need fast and precise inputs. If you're primarily playing this on a Steam Deck, this is one of those 5W TDP 90fps games, the battery will last forever while playing this. Edit: The dev recently stated that he's is planning to update the Steam version with new features.
