Music Racer is a game for Android with clear inspirations in those clips of Synthwave or Retrowave (see below). The game follows the musical pattern of the song you are listening to. Game is free and offline.
Now comes the bad part. For the game to work, you need music on your smartphone. It’s no use having Spotify or m4a songs. The game wants to root MP3, which is something very retro, however, difficult to find.
Solved the MP3 part, the result is a game that adapts to the music that is playing. The objective is to collect all the white points on the track, and to deflect obstacles. There are no lives, you simply play to relax and unlock other vehicles.
Now just look for the Retrowave with insane keyboards to feel in the 80’s! Yes or for sure! Oops, it could actually be any song .
Sorry for the exaggeration of videos, is that I like this type of sound (I think you already knew it …). But it is worth mentioning that this genre of music is very much connected to videogame and the 80s. A good example is the second part of this last clip, with clear inspiration in the music of the first Castlevania of the NES.
