Description
Collidalot is a local multiplayer game in which jet-powered destruction derby meets rail-grinding chaos. Players pilot post-apocalyptic hover cars and crash them into each other. The world is a wasteland where pilots battle for glory above desolated landscapes. Energy rails have been suspended above the unforgiving planet surface where pilots fly and grind on the rails at breakneck speeds for map dominance.
History
Collidalot originally started as a prototype codenamed "Love Letter 4Three Born". The concept began with spaceship sumo wrestling, with the intent to create a brand new local multiplayer game. Jokes were thrown around that the ships could grind on the gravity of Saturn's rings and thus grinding became one of the main gameplay features. The original prototype was named "The Enragement Ring" and shown in the local Seattle area during the summer of 2016. Full production caused two art style shifts and another rename, this time to "Collidalot".
