Police Car Chase

Floor it past red lights, dodge oncoming cars, and shake that flashing siren before the road runs out.

I'll admit it — I crashed within the first twenty seconds. The arrow keys feel twitchy at first, like the car's got a mind of its own, but that's half the fun. You're weaving between sedans, trucks, and the occasional oncoming lane, all while a swarm of cop cars tries to box you in. The camera sits right above the action, so you see the whole road spooling out ahead, and your eyes start scanning three cars ahead because the traffic patterns shift every run. The cops aren't brainless either. They'll flank you, cut you off at intersections, and sometimes set up a blockade that forces you into a split-second decision — brake hard or thread the gap. I once squeezed between a taxi and a streetlight with maybe a pixel to spare, and the rush was better than any triple-A racer. The spike strips are sneaky too; you'll hear a faint beep right before they appear, and if you're mid-overtake, good luck. If you want a quick adrenaline fix between classes, this is it. Runs last a couple minutes, restarts are instant, and there's no story (though I'd love to know why my pixelated driver is being chased). Just hold down the gas, grip the arrows, and don't look at the score too long — that's exactly when the spike strip shows up. A solid little arcade racer that respects your time.

Please use keyboard arrows

Use short taps on the left/right arrows instead of holding them — the steering is sensitive and overcorrection kills runs. Keep an eye on the oncoming lane; sometimes driving into traffic is safer than staying in your lane when cops box you in. Brake early before sharp turns, because momentum will slide you into walls or police cars. Don't chase the speed power-up if it means cutting across three lanes of traffic — it's rarely worth the crash. The spike strips are announced by a single beep; when you hear it, move to the far side of the road. Restart quickly after a crash — the game gets harder the longer you survive, but so does your score multiplier.
