What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We believe in building PixelTorque with our community. Early Access allows us to gather valuable feedback from real players, test core systems like racing mechanics, tuning, painting, and online features, and make iterative improvements. Our goal is to deliver the best possible retro-style drag racing experience, and involving players early helps shape that journey.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect PixelTorque to remain in Early Access for 1 to 2 months, depending on the feedback we receive and the pace of feature development.”

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

“🚀 How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?
The full version of PixelTorque is planned to include:

Full story mode with boss races and missions

Expanded parts and customization (stickers, wraps, spoilers, hoods, etc.)

Online leaderboards and multiplayer races

More cars, and modes

Seasonal events and limited-time challenges

Enhanced visual polish and performance optimization

Achievements and cloud save integration

We’ll continue building on player feedback to ensure the full version is a richer, more complete experience.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“🎮 What is the current state of the Early Access version?
The Early Access version is fully playable and includes:

Offline drag races with dynamic gear shifting

Car selection with customization options

Fuel, XP, and coin economy

Painting, parts upgrades, and tuning system

A variety of cars and tracks

UI and menu navigation
It is stable and fun but lacks online multiplayer, final polish, and some planned content.”

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

“Yes, we plan to gradually increase the price as we add more content, features, and polish. Early adopters get access at a lower price and can shape the development with their feedback.”

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

“👥 How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?
We’ll actively engage with our community through:

Discord server and Steam discussions

Regular development updates and patch notes

Feedback polls and in-game reporting

Community events and feature requests

Beta testing for major updates

We want players to be part of the journey and help steer the direction of PixelTorque’s development.”

About This Game

🛣️ The Road to Lux…

Amal and Lux were inseparable—until a ruthless underground syndicate tore them apart. Lux was taken by four elite racers who rule the streets, each hiding her behind a wall of rubber, steel, and smoke.

To rescue her, Amal must rise through the ranks of the underground drag racing world, face the champions, and conquer the strip.

Each rival has a unique driving style, intense backstory, and powerful machine. Win the races, master your inventory of parts, and uncover the truth in this retro pixel racer packed with heart and horsepower.
