DriveGear is a single-player spin-combat action roguelite. Battle through each district in a city-wide tournament. Route your optimal path, take on contracts, tune your build, battle rivals, and earn your way to the Crown Arena.
Every machine is built from four interchangeable components: Core, Chassis, Axle, and Bearing. Change the way you accelerate, collide, defend, and deploy special abilities by rebuilding between encounters. Build for attack, defense, or stamina, or find that killer combination of parts across three specialized part lines.
Dash attack an open opponent, guard through pressure, and utilize build dependent special moves and abilities. Find the right timing and openings to defeat difficult opponents or finish in style.
Scout branching paths across each district. Contracts, vendors, events, and fights all compete for limited time. A risky detour can secure a badge, reveal a stronger part, or leave you scrambling to reach the qualifier.
Reshape your gear as you move across the districts. Claim gear spoils from defeated rivals. Buy parts, upgrades, and badges at vendors. Complete contracts to earn credits for vital new parts. Every encounter is an opportunity to push your build even further.
Every district brings it's own local flair, changing the opposition and the arena around you. Route through the new environments, adapt to the rivals, and make them remember your name.
