Racing Limits

Racing Limits is an endless highway racer, which puts it in a long line of games about one thing: not hitting the car in front. It runs in the browser — no download, no account, no install.

The road is a busy motorway running one way, and you are threading through it faster than the traffic. Steering is continuous rather than discrete, which matters more than it sounds — you are not choosing a lane so much as choosing a line through a moving maze, and the spaces between cars close as you approach them.

Speed is the progression system. The longer you survive, the faster the game runs, and the faster it runs, the less time you have to see a gap and commit to it. There is no track to learn, because the traffic is generated; what you learn instead is the vocabulary of situations — a slow truck ahead with a car on each side, a sudden three-lane block — and which ones you can squeeze through.

It is a one-thumb game on a phone and an arrow-key game on desktop, and it reads clearly at both sizes.

On cool games spot this page is the index entry: cover, description, and search terms. The game itself is loaded from a third-party web build in an iframe on Play, so nothing is bundled into the site. It is filed under driving and tagged racing and car, so it appears alongside the rest of the racing games in the catalog.
