Night Drive Racing Game

Own the night. Drive the rain. The Story Every night, the city crowns a new owner: whoever runs its streets best. NYX, a fixer who used to hold the crown, has picked you to take it. She has a crew and a list of jobs, and the neon-soaked, rain-slick metro is yours to prove yourself in. POPS runs dispatch. He sends you on fares and cargo runs, pays on time, and hates scratches. LUX is a drift idol who streams the city's best slides to millions. RIO is the speed freak who runs the street races. FUSE is chaos. HEX is hunting for the Neon Sigils hidden across the city. Your phone buzzes with their texts, and every job, race and sigil brings you closer to one title: Owner of the Night. Features A rainy cyberpunk metro, 3.8 km across. Downtown blocks, elevated expressways, bridges, a harbor and hill hairpins. Wet pavement reflects the street lights, and rain falls on the open streets and not under rooftops. Driving with real weight. Tire grip, clutch, differential and turbo are all simulated. You can drift, use nitro and try a launch-control start.

Each has its own tuning, engine sound, turbo whistle and exhaust pops, and several have neon paint styles. Missions from the crew. Deliveries, drift runs, speed challenges and chaos jobs, plus a final run for NYX. 23 street races. Checkpoint runs against the clock, from the downtown streets to a coast-to-coast marathon. Winning all of them unlocks a secret car. 54 Neon Sigils to find. Follow HEX's tips to collect them. They unlock the sigil cars. NEON·FM. A synthwave radio with a retro CRT player. Pick a track while the city sleeps. Cutting-edge tech. It runs on WebGPU with Three.js and TSL shaders, with Rapier physics and rain-on-glass intro. Gamepad and touch are supported.

Hard Rock Hero

Just a fun little experiment. If people like it, I might do something more with this. One action per beat, step sideways, jump forward, or block projectiles. One point per tile moved, five points per coin or kill. The game ends when the song ends. Let me know what you think!

Rocket Rhythm

Rocket Rhythm is a unique rhythm action game. Dodge waves of enemies while dashing and slamming to the beat. And when the chorus hits... WEAPONS FREE! HOW TO PLAY: Left side notes dash, right side notes slam. During WEAPONS FREE sections you also aim and fire. Gamepad (recommended) Control the ship with the left stick, dash with the left trigger or left bumper, and slam with the right trigger or right bumper. Aim with the right stick. Keyboard and mouse Control the ship with WASD or the arrow keys, dash with the left mouse button and slam with the right. Aim with the mouse. Keyboard only Activate keyboard mode on the difficulty screen. This disables WEAPONS FREE sections, and the game can be fully controlled with WASD as well as J and K for dash and slam. All keys can be reconfigured in the settings menu. The game currently features four original songs, two of them playable for free. The others can be unlocked together with two additional modes. The initial soundtrack is planned to contain ten songs, and any purchase at the current price will also unlock the remaining ones as soon as they are released. In the future, I would like to collaborate with musicians for additional song packs. Rocket Rhythm is still in active development and I'll carefully monitor all feedback, both here on Wavedash and on Discord.

WaveRush

There’s only one rule: hold to rise, release to fall. Everything else is reflexes, rhythm, and a little stubbornness. The tunnel gets narrower, spikes line both sides, gears spin, and moving obstacles block your path. Every level is carefully designed by hand, and every passage gets a little harder. 🌀 Level Mode: Unlock hand-crafted levels one by one, fill the progress bar, and reach the black hole. Every victory earns you diamonds. 😈 Demonic Race: Four rival bots race through the same tunnel at the same time. Just like you, they make mistakes, fall, and try again. Reach the finish line before they do and put your time on the global leaderboard. 🎵 Let Your Touches Become Music: Every time you tap the screen, the next note of the selected song plays. A new song awaits you on every attempt. Keep playing and let the melody unfold. 💎 Collect, Unlock, Show Off: Collect diamonds and unlock new characters with the Random button: triangles, stars, hearts, rockets, and more. And don’t forget to spin the daily reward wheel. 🏆 Global Leaderboards: Reach the top 100 for the highest level and the fastest race times. ☁️ Your Progress, Wherever You Go: Your progress is saved in the cloud. Pick up where you left off on your phone and continue on your computer. On mobile, a single tap is all you need. On PC, use Space, W, the Up Arrow, or a mouse click. Color themes slowly change as you play, so no two tunnels ever look exactly the same. One more try… Okay, seriously, this is the last one.
