Gear Up for Fun: Build and Race in Screw Drivers - Available Now in Early Access
Alt-indie publisher Headup and development partner Creactstudios are today releasing their physics-based build and race sandbox game, Screw Drivers, on PC via Steam Early Access. In the game, players design and craft wooden racing vehicles from a massive collection of parts, including engines, axles, gears, and more, building the perfect powertrain and aerodynamics to drive their creations. They then race them in single- and multiplayer matchups to earn rank and, in single-player, challenge the island’s racing royalty to unlock newer, more powerful parts!
Developed by Creactstudios, Screw Drivers is available for free on Steam. To help support development, Headup is offering paid cosmetics-focused Supporter Packs.
Screw Drivers is the first graduate of Headup’s Prototype program, where consumers are invited to give direct feedback on the ideas behind a game based on early Prototype versions of it. Headup then considers this feedback when determining if they will green-light a full release of the game.
Technical creations mix with crazy physics and high-speed races in Screw Drivers! Craft custom vehicles - powered by combustion, electricity, or both, coupled with axles, gears, and suspensions to propel them. With an intuitive build editor at your fingertips, unleash your creativity! Engage in challenges against pompous royals, each featuring unique mechanical marvels, and triumph against them to unlock their unique vehicle parts. Race with friends in multiplayer, embarking on adventures across an island where thrilling races and competitions await, all fueled by turbo-powered creations and boundless imagination.
Features of Screw Drivers include:
Build, race, improve: Start by building your vehicle from the provided toolkit and parts collection, then race to win against others in single- and multiplayer modes to unlock new parts to improve your creations!
A technical toolkit: The game features a massive toolkit of parts and an easy-to-use design editor for building your car from the drivetrain up! Whether it's four wheels or 40, it's up to you, but you'll need to figure out how to power that mighty mega-drivetrain by selecting the right engine for the job.
Single-player story mode: The island's racing royalty (the Kings and Queens) think they have the ultimate racing machines. Prove them wrong by racing against them in story mode, unlocking their custom parts for your designs.
Multiplayer mode: Jump online and race your favorite creations against other drivers!
Explosive physics: Sometimes, it's more fun to crash than to win! Watch cars explode into their component pieces when taking a turn a little too tight or by playing a little more "demolition derby"-style with other players. A wreck never means you're out of the race, as you can quickly re-assemble and get back on the track.
Screw Drivers is now available in Early Access on PC via Steam.
