About This Game

R A C E . R E V E N G E . R E V O L U T I O N .

BAD DOGS is a high-octane cyberpunk arcade mosaic that blends 80s vector-grid mechanics with a modern neon-noir comic aesthetic. The city is a digital cage ruled by the all-seeing Syndicate. Behind the wheel of a high-speed cyber-vehicle—or rolling deep into kinetic ribbon raceways. Rear through heavily guarded sectors to reclaim the streets... or sell them out.

Whether you're hunting phantom signals, carving banked bobsleigh walls in supersonic kinetic marbles, chasing global leaderboard glory, or just zoning out on a glowing wireframe highway, the grid is yours.

FOUR CORE GAME MODES

🔴 STORY MODE (Cyber Highway & City Hack)

Navigate an immersive, branching narrative centered around The Pink Car—a phantom vehicle encrypted obituaries claim was vaporized two years ago. Choose your faction, tackle high-stakes checkpoints, hack through tactical roadblock minigames, and decide the fate of the city at the Syndicate Core: Believe in the revolution, or Deny your network for corporate immunity. At every checkpoint, the road forks: risk lethal corporate resistance for triple Data Cores, or take the detour.

🟡 UNDERGROUND RACING (Classic Pursuit-Style Race)

Pure, subterranean time-attack adrenaline across branching multi-stage highway routes. Master 4-speed manual gear shifting, draft tight traffic lines to charge high-risk turbo boosts, and outrun the Syndicate’s relentless pursuit agent: The Enforcer. Choose your endurance run from 5-stage classic sprints to 100-stage marathons or endless tarmac.

🟣 MARBLE CIRCUIT (Kinetic AG Rollercoasters)

Experience full 3D physics-driven ribbon racing! Rocket through 12 wild roller-coaster circuits complete with 400m gravity dives, inverted loops, sky-ridge chasm jumps, and magnetic rails.

  • Multiple Race Disciplines: 6-Marble Grand Prix leagues, 1-on-1 Ladder Duels, chaotic Marble Rumbles, and precision Solo Time Trials.

  • Deep Kinetic Physics: Tuck for aerodynamic speed, dive down vertical drops, bank across 80° bobsleigh walls, and slingshot through power slides.

  • Marble Designer: Build and tune your custom kinetic sphere in a full 3D lab—allocate weight, grip, speed, and downforce, and style multi-layer glass, chrome, and neon gyro shells.

🟢 ARCADE MODE (Endless Retro-Fun)

Step into a limitless, escalating hub of rule-breaking minigames featuring bespoke boss battles and global boards:

  • Brick-Breaker: Arkanoid-inspired firewall breaches with radar powerups, multiball splits, and boss dreadnoughts.

  • Angry Balls (Galaga Swarm): Blast aerial interceptor fleets, dodge drama spotlights, and juggle enemy pawns.

  • Sewer Shooter: Deep sub-grid 3D descent shooting with rotating obstacles, bomb flippers, and Titan bosses.

  • Juggler: High-intensity kinetic rebound defense keeping volatile data spheres airborne.

  • Shufflepuck: Ruthless 3D air hockey duels against rogue AI enforcers with live table powerups and curve shots.

CHILL VECTOR CRUISING & RUN MODIFIERS

Not every run needs to be a pulse-pounding chase. Need to decompress? BAD DOGS doubles as a chill cyberpunk sanctuary:

  • Sunday Club Cruise: Slow down the traffic, dial into the retro-futuristic atmosphere, and spend time cruising matrix highways with dedicated chill leaderboards.

  • Cinematic ASMR Mode: Release the wheel and let an automated floating camera drift through neon architecture and cycling weather fronts.

  • Wild Perks: Shake up runs with unique modifiers like Wildchild Protocol (1.75x hyperspeed), Flower Child Sub-Routine, or Avoid Everything.

FOUR FACTION DESTINIES

Choose your ride and your ideological allegiance across the grid:

  • Red Crow (Rebellion): Balanced speed, nitro shockwaves, and aggressive assault grip.

  • Yellow Sparrow (Ecology): Raw supersonic top speed and surgical cornering for razor-sharp reflexes.

  • Blue Seagull (Exodus): Heavyweight armored tank chassis that turns syndicate traffic into scrap metal.

  • Green Mantis (Oblivion): Elite cyber-hacker craft capable of phase glitching through roadblocks.

LOCAL & GLOBAL LEADERBOARDS

Test your skill on your own terms across every single mode, circuit, and perk:

  • Local Leaderboards: Classic 3-letter arcade initials entry with celebration fireworks and ghost racing on your machine.

  • Global Steam Leaderboards: Direct Steam integration tracking high scores, circuit lap times, and weekly seeded world events against drivers worldwide.

GAME FEATURES

  • Neo-Noir Vector Visuals: A crisp fusion of early 3D wireframe vector grids and high-contrast comic-book art.

  • Dynamic Weather Systems: Over 11 atmospheric conditions including Blizzard, Glitch Rain, EMP Storms, Solar Flare Ash, and Nebula Drift.

  • BPM-Reactive Audiovisuals: Neon skylines, wireframe road borders, and shader pulses sync to the rhythm in real time.

  • Persistent Rebel Safehouse: Bank Data Cores to upgrade top speeds, mount repulsor shields, and unlock neon paint finishes.

  • Mighty Chip-Prog Soundtrack: An original score blending authentic hardware sounds from the Atari ST (YM2149) and Commodore 64 (SID) with modern production.
