About

Ignition is an action packed racing game viewed from above and slightly behind the player. The cars on offer range from police car and VW Beetle to school bus and truck, each of which has its own strengths and weaknesses - trying to win with the bus, which involves blocking everyone behind the hideously slow vehicle for 3 laps, is perhaps the ultimate challenge. Initially there are 5 tracks available, with practice and single race modes as well as full championship at 3 levels - winning each of the first 2 levels unlocks an extra track. They all have hazards running through them, and sections where you must make a split-second choice between the safer route and the risky but potentially rewarding one. Multiplayer can be done via network or by split-screen - in a break with convention the screen is split vertically rather than horizontally.

Frequently asked questions

Can I play Ignition on PC, Mac or Linux?
The original release already runs natively on Windows. There is no known port for macOS and Linux yet. Windows builds can run on Linux through Wine or Proton, but that is not a native port.
Is anyone working on a port of Ignition?
Nobody has published one on RecompHub yet. Games people want that still have no port are listed under What to work on next.
