Zorrito Slide

Zorrito Slide is a drift-racing game built around a single snow fox and the icy bends of its track. The fox travels at speed through a run of frozen corners, and the whole game turns on how it is carried through each one.

The control is a hold. Holding anywhere makes the fox power-drift along the icy bend, carving a line around the inside of the corner. As it slides, it approaches a glowing apex marked at the tightest point of the turn. Releasing right as the fox reaches that apex fires it out of the corner and onto the next stretch of track.

Timing is the whole of it. A release that comes too early, or too late, sends the fox sliding wide, off the track and into a lost life. Each bend is its own small test of reading the apex and letting go at the right moment, and the corners come one after another as the run continues.

There are twenty levels, each a fresh arrangement of icy bends for the snow fox to drift and fire its way through. The difficulty sits in the shape and sequence of the corners rather than in any clutter around them, so the game stays focused on the one gesture of holding to drift and releasing at the apex.

Zorrito Slide keeps a clean, wintry look centred on the fox, the snow and the glowing apex of each turn, with the drift-and-release rhythm carrying the whole of the play from the first bend to the last.
