Deskdrift

Deskdrift is a toy-scale time trial. Lay plastic track pieces across a desk — straights, corners, ramps, berms — and drive a palm-sized car over them. The desk is part of the road: a book is a shortcut, a ruler is a jump, a mat drags you down, a mug stops you. Fifteen tracks ship. Build your own, then chase your last run.

Controls

• Drive — arrow keys or WASD. Up throttles, down brakes, left and right steer.
• Put it back — Enter or Space, wherever the car is. A fall off the desk puts it back on its own.
• Restart the run — R or Backspace.
• Change track — [ and ]
• Build a track — B. Needs a mouse, so it is offered on a computer only.
• Mute — M

On a touch screen: hold anywhere to drive, tap the left or right half to steer, hold the bottom of the screen to brake.
