Midnight Ride

MIDNIGHT RIDE

“Only your headlights and your reflexes stand between you and the endless dark.”

About the game

Midnight Ride is a fast, low-poly endless runner set on a deserted mountain highway. Guide your lone hatchback through pitch-black night, dodging cones, crates and rocks while grabbing glowing pickups to push your score ever higher. One crash, and the darkness swallows you whole—hit Restart and try to beat your best streak.

Features

• Headlight-only visibility – the road ahead exists only inside your beams

• Smooth drag / A-D steering – swipe with the mouse or use keyboard / game-pad stick

• Dynamic obstacles & pickups – randomized lanes keep every run fresh

• Reactive VFX & audio – exhaust smoke, confetti pops, screen shake and crunchy SFX

• Chill synth loop – drive to an 80-style ambient track (adjust Music / SFX separately)

• Instant restart – fail fast, retry faster, chase that high score

Tips

• Stay in the center until you see an obstacle – last-second swerves score farther.

• Dash through pickups to trigger a tiny confetti burst (extra visibility!).

• Zero a slider in the Sound menu to mute; ESC toggles menus anytime.
