Description

Hit the Retro Highway and return to the days of blast processing and pure arcade fun! Retro Highway is a throwback game aiming to combine the accessibility of modern titles with the high-skill challenge and charming aesthetics of old.

History

Retro Highway was developed by Gearhead Games, a tiny international company by Nicolai Danielsen in collaboration with Constantine Berg. They met on TIGForums and teamed up for a ‘quick collab’ which subsequently turned into their longest development endeavor so far. Even though some people may tell them that they’re doing a good job, they actually have absolutely no idea what they’re doing.
