Development of Star Drift Evolution started a couple months after the release of the first Star Drift on Steam. Star Drift, released in February 2018, was Catze's first project and laid the foundations for Star Drift Evolution. During the last 2 years, the game system has been refined and finetuned to offer a more exciting and less frustrating experience. The result is Star Drift Evolution. Star Drift Evolution takes the multiplayer arcade action and visuals of retro top-down classics like Super Off Road, Micromachines and Skidmarks and mixes them with a pseudo-simulative physics-based gameplay to offer an experience that feels familiar and refreshing at the same time. Star Drift Evolution was programmed in Unity and Blender was used for the 3D environments.
