Racing game

HexGL

HexGL is a fast, polished WebGL racer: pilot a hover-ship around a three-lap cityscape circuit with boosters, shield damage, a HUD, bloom and motion blur. Crash too hard and you are destroyed; finish for your lap time. Keyboard on desktop, with touch, gamepad and tilt controllers included in the engine.
