You're a broke hoverbike racer scraping by on ramen, chasing enough cash from races and side gigs to reach Mars before ticket prices soar. Race through challenges while delivering pizzas, gathering gun parts, and hunting bounties to fund your trip to the universe's biggest Grand Prix. Between events, roam vibrant cities to upgrade your vintage bike, grab local food, and battle gangsters and hunters for survival.
This action RPG racer simulation blends high-speed competition with gritty odd jobs in a world where Earth's decline pushes folks toward the Red Planet. Fans of indie hoverbike racing and resource-hustling gameplay will race to keep their bike running and stomach full. Nothing comes free in this harsh hustle.
You’re broke, you’re hungry, and your only friends are a vintage hoverbike and a bowl of ramen noodles.
In Desert Child, you are a young and talented hoverbike racer who needs to figure out how you can scrape enough cash together through racing and odd jobs to punch your one-way ticket to the Red Planet to enter the biggest race in the universe, the Grand Prix.
The world as we know it is slowly starting to become unhabitable, as many people on Earth have moved to Mars for a better quality of life, thanks to a government subsidy that assisted in relocating citizens by providing affordable passage. After several years of running this program, the government announces that in two weeks, tickets to Mars would go up in price, making the exodus to the Red Planet unobtainable for regular citizens.
You’ll deliver pizzas, collect gun parts, hunt bounties, and make some fans along the way. In between races, you’ll explore colorful cities where you can repair and upgrade your bike, dine on the local cuisine, and fight your way through gangsters, bounty hunters, and all sorts of interesting characters, just so that you can have a decent meal and keep your bike running.
Nothing’s free in Desert Child.
