Story
Nitro Nonsense is a chaotic racing party game built to be played your way. Race locally or online with up to 16 players. Grab a keyboard or your favorite controllers, play in traditional split-screen, or keep everyone together in a shared top-down view. Couch or online, one screen or several, choose the setup that works for your group and start racing. Win a race and the next one is yours to redraw. While everyone else is in the garage, the winner gets the editor. Raise and carve the terrain, reroute the track, resize the map, and drop in jumps, boosts, walls and traps wherever they will do the most damage. Build a clean competitive circuit, a trap-filled gauntlet, or something that barely qualifies as a racetrack. Falling behind does not mean you are out of the race. Every time you lose, your car improves. The more you lose, the more powerful you become, giving every player a chance to fight back and turning each rematch into an even more unpredictable battle. The Cannon spins out whoever it hits. The Hook latches onto the car ahead and slingshots you past them. The Jammer reverses their steering. The Brick Wall leaves a breakable wall behind you. Then there are mines,...

Then there are mines, oil slicks, shockwaves, homing missiles, and the passives: shield, 4WD, hang glider, and a bumper that lets you ram without taking the hit yourself. Every environment is inspired by the landscapes,...
