Fighty Driver: Outrun. Outgun. Outlast.

The bandits have the loot. You have the wheels. Let’s even the odds.

Fighty Driver is a high-octane, single-player arcade combat racer built for speed freaks and tactical drivers. Trapped in a wasteland ruled by armed gangs, your mission is simple: tear through the environment, reclaim the stolen gold, and reach the extraction zone before your fuel hits zero—or a grenade hits your windshield.

⚡ THE CHALLENGE

This isn't just a race; it's a fight for survival. To unlock the next level, you’ll need to scavenge coins scattered across the map while managing your limited fuel and dwindling ammo.

⚡ THE THREAT

The road is crawling with bandits who don't take kindly to thieves. Expect relentless AI pursuit, incoming gunfire, and explosive traps. You aren't just driving; you're engaging in high-speed warfare. Use your mounted weapons to clear the path, but keep an eye on your resources—refills are rare, and the clock is ticking.

⚡ CLAIM YOUR LEGACY

  • Arcade Intensity: Tight controls and explosive combat built on the Godot engine.
  • Tactical Scavenging: Balance the risk of hunting for more coins against your remaining fuel.
  • Global Leaderboards: Once you master the demo, grab the full version to cement your name in the Hall of Fame. Can you become the world’s #1 Fighty Driver?

⚡ DEVELOPER NOTE 

This is an active pre-release demo (v1.0 prep). We are looking for the bravest drivers to stress-test the mechanics and help us shape the final build. Found a bug? Have a suggestion for a new weapon? Join the development journey and leave your mark on the game!

WARNING!

The web demo version lacks some visual effects compared to the downloadable versions (Windows,Linux).

Unfortunately, the game doesn't launch for me. I get this error.

My attempts:

1. Running with the default settings.

2. Running with "Low end device" enabled.

3. Running with "Low resolution" enabled.

4. Running with both "Low end device" and "Low resolution" enabled.

5. Running in full-screen and windowed mode, both with "Low end device" and "Low resolution" enabled.

6. Changing my username from "Mark Wiering" to "markwiering" in case the error was caused by the space in the username.

Nothing worked. I always get the same error (see below). :'-(

Hi, unfortunately yours seems to be a problem with the video card's vulkan drivers; it's strange since cards Intel Xe graphics, including TGL GT2, support Vulkan. the game is developed and tested on various linux distribution mainly ubuntu and debian and never seen this kind of error. May be you can try to reinstall/update graphics driver.

I'm sorry

I am using MX Linux 23 64-bit, which is based on Debian. If this game is tested on Debian, it should work on MX Linux, too.

Support for the Intel iRIS Xe graphics is included in the Linux kernel that I use (version 6.1.0-33). All other graphical software, like Blender 3, Blender 4, Godot 4, other Godot 4 games etcetera, work like a charm on my laptop.

I do not know why exactly I am getting this error. I could try this game on another computer, or on this same laptop when Windows 10 is booted.

ok

Now I tried this game on my older PC from 2010 which also runs MX Linux 23 64-bit.

The menu was rather sluggish this time, but that is to be expected when running this game on an older PC. When I tried starting the game, however, it immediately closed. No Vulkan error this time. Just "Segmentation fault".

I tried again with low resolution enabled, low end device enabled and windowed mode enabled instead of full-screen mode. Nothing worked. The game always gives a segmentation fault when starting it on this older PC. :-( 

Next, I will try to run this game when Windows 10 is booted on either this PC, either my new laptop. One of those should work. I hope it will.

ok

@davis-alger thank you very much for trying the game and making the video. Your thoughts and impressions will be very useful to improve it. The game is not final but only a playable demo.

Thanks again!

PS: just a couple of things: to finish a level you need to accumulate a minimum score by collecting coins (as the enemies do) and to change the unit of measurement of speed just click on the writing
