APEX GP 26

Lights out in one key press: a single-seater racing sim that runs right here in your browser.

Drive a modern open-wheel car with a hybrid battery, wings that flatten on the straights and an overtake mode, against 21 AI drivers from 11 teams. Every team, driver, circuit and sponsor is invented.

This free demo gives you the Valdoria Metropolitan Circuit, a street circuit through a city business district, in any weather and at any time of day. Race it in clear sun, at dusk, or at night under floodlights in heavy rain, with spray behind every car and a race engineer talking you through it on the radio.

In the demo: a Training Lap that teaches throttle, braking, aero and boost; Quick Race, three laps against the full field; and Time Trial, hot laps against the ghost of your best, with saved personal bests. Every graphics preset from Mobile to Ultra is included, along with driving assists you can switch on and off.

The full game adds three more circuits, Grand Prix weekends with qualifying and pit strategy, a four-round Championship and a multi-season Driver Career with contracts, rivals and car upgrades. It is available separately on itch.io.

Controls. Keyboard: W/S or arrows to drive, A/D to steer, Space for overtake (tap) or boost (hold), F for active aero, C to change camera, Esc to pause. Gamepad: triggers to drive, left stick to steer. Touch: on-screen steering and pedals appear automatically.

Designed and directed by Kayode Fashola (KFPlay) and built with the help of AI: the code, the procedural graphics and the text were written with Claude, and the race engineer's voice was made with the open-source Kokoro text-to-speech model. No AI image generators were used; every image and video is captured from the game. Runs on WebGPU, with a WebGL2 fallback. No accounts, no ads, no tracking.
