Rolling Car is an action platformer game developed by red Deer games and released on Nintendo Switch on April 16, 2022. In the game, the player takes the role of a car and must drive along levels that are made of a rolling conveyor belt. The level is constantly moving thus requiring the player to keep driving along to avoid falling off of the belt.
Tropes present in the game:
- Auto-Scrolling Level: All of the game's levels are set on a conveyor belt that is always moving, even if the car comes to a stop. If the car falls off the belt, the game is over.
- Cool Car: The three cars you can select to play as are large monster trucks that have the ability to jump as well as to burst forward in a turbo mode.
- Critical Existence Failure: The game ends if the car should ever fall off either side of the belt.
- Ramp Jump: One of the game's central mechanics is to build up speed and then use it to jump ramps that lie along the track.
- Ratchet Scrolling: The conveyor belt levels only ever move forward. That car is unable to move the belt backwards to move back to a previous part of the level and will instead fall off the belt.
