About
A side-view physics driver over procedurally generated hills that grow steeper the further you go. Gravity pulls you back on climbs and launches you off crests; in the air, 4 and 6 tilt the car so you can land on your wheels (clean landings earn a bonus, landing on your roof ends the run). Fuel cans keep the tank topped up and coins add to your score.
Objective: Drive as far as possible before you flip over or run out of fuel.
