One day in traffic, an ordinary man gets so angry that he loses his physical form. His car is possessed by a very angry demon - the personification of road rage. Suddenly, he no longer needs gasoline to keep driving - he only needs human souls.


Run people over to get extra time, and hear their tinny lofi screams. (It's cartoon logic, they're fine afterwards.) Avoid trash cans, fire hydrants, and other obstacles blocking your way. Enjoy endless mode and see how high a score you can get. Play story mode and see where Demon Car goes.


The first official game project of OCEAN DAD STUDIOS. All sprites by Noah Scher and all music sourced from DeerTears' GB Studio Community Assets Pack.


Made in GB Studio, so you can play it on an actual Game Boy, or on your favorite Game Boy emulator! Also playable in browser. (Z and X are A and B, arrow keys are d-pad.)


Created over the summer of 2023 for GB Compo 23. The jam's theme is you are the monster, and I'd say a demonic car that runs people over to take their souls is pretty monstrous.


Remember, in real life, hitting people with your car is bad. If you find yourself getting mad behind the wheel, don't become possessed by a demon - take a deep breath, count to 10, take a sip of water.

This is super charming and fun. If you ever build out this into a fully experience, adding branching paths similar to Outrun's left easy right hard would be a great addition for replayablity

I love the concept and car design. The intro is both perfection. I believe the gameplay could be stronger but overall it's one of my favorites

Love the screams! Fun game.

Feels like Paper Boy gone crazy. :D

I really like the style and silliness in this game. Goof job!
