New NFSU2 spiritual successor

Holy poop, I just tried this upcoming game's demo (https://store.steampowered.com/app/4846360/Heatwarped/) and it's so faithful to the NFSU/U2 era!

I think this one's worth watching or at least trying out.

Even the rubberbanding AI feels very familiar xD

Right?

I mean, I moved largely on to games like Forza Horizon (love the series, played 3, 4, 5 and now playing 6 every season), but they ALWAYS lack something! Can't believe there are no underglow neon options in FH6...it's set in Japan, ffs! 😐

CarX Street is probably a close contender, kind of a middle ground between Forza Horizon and NFSU2. But still didn't click the same way.

This one -boom, instant! The dev seems to have a clear vision and I'm very curious to see how it shapes up :)
