Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Poly Speed is a new game where I want to give the players the opportunity to help me shape the visions of the game. I want to build a community so the features I'm going to integrate will be what the players want.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I estimate the Game will be in Early Access for 12 or more months, based on feedback and suggestions from my community.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“I plan to bring a more polished and refined gaming experience to the full version of Poly Speed. I am committed to addressing bugs, optimizing performance and expanding the game with additional races, tracks, a bigger map, additional modes like challenges or an endless runner and also new features like replays of your best runs. But all based on the community's feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“At this point of time the game has some Races, Leaderbords for the fastes finish times, multiplayer and Level editor with Steam Workshop support.


Bugs are likely to occur and with major updates there is a chance that saved maps will become incompatible.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price will probably be a bit higher after the game is out of early access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Players can suggest features and give me feedback on the Steam forum. My ears are open and i hope everyone can share their thoughts and help me shape this game.”

About This Game

Poly Speed is a low poly arcade racer set on a big open island. Drive anywhere with your friends, jump into a race the moment one of you starts it, and build your cars exactly the way you like them.

Drive together

  • Made for multiplayer: free roam the whole island with your friends, each in your own car
  • Start a race and everyone in your session gets an invite to join you
  • Play solo against AI drivers on Normal, Hard or Expert
  • Bump, push and chase each other, or just cruise

Three kinds of racing

  • Street races through towns, along the coast and down the motorway
  • Drift events scored on angle, speed and how long you keep the chain going
  • Off-road scrambles across hills, fields and woods
  • Races against a full grid, time trials against a ghost, and your own best run to beat every time

Chase the world record

  • Online leaderboards for every race
  • Download the record holder's run and race their ghost line for line
  • See exactly where they brake, turn in and gain their time

Build your own races

  • A race creator to lay checkpoints anywhere on the island
  • Dress your course with ramps, barriers and signs
  • Share it on the Steam Workshop and play the community's races with your friends

Real physics, arcade feel

  • Every car is simulated: real engines, gearboxes, differentials and tyres, built on the numbers of the real cars they are based on
  • Weight, power and grip all matter, so a light roadster and a heavy off-roader drive nothing alike
  • On top of that sits arcade handling that is easy to pick up on keyboard or controller, with boost, slipstream, jumps and a drift assist for linking long drifts
  • Every engine sound is generated live from that engine's own layout and firing order, so each one sounds like itself

Build your car

  • Classic sports cars, supercars, off-roaders and pickups, from the late seventies to today
  • Turn any car into a street, drift or off-road build
  • Engine swaps, upgrades and tuning that you feel on the road
  • Body kits, spoilers, wheels and rims, ride height and camber, paint in any colour and finish, underglow

A world to explore

  • Towns, a city, an airport, motorways, mountain roads, farmland, forests and beaches
  • Day and night, and weather that turns from sunshine to rain or snow
  • Smash through fences, knock over props and flatten the tall grass
  • Earn XP for races, drifts, donuts, big air and top speed, and watch your level climb
  • Find and unlock hidden cars and upgrades across the map
