Slow Roads is a casual driving game all about finding peace in a long, scenic journey. Escape to endless, procedurally-generated landscapes with configurable locations, roads, seasons, lighting, and vehicles. Generate a world, set the weather to suit your mood, and just drive. Endless driving zen Chase the horizon through endless, ever-unique landscapes. Disconnect while you roll through valleys, forests, and fields, at whichever speed scratches the itch. Generate your road A novel procedural engine generates the landscapes and roads organically, meaning every road you generate is unique , and no two corners are alike. Choose from single-track dirt roads up to 4-lane highways, and from straight lanes to winding corners. World generation is seeded, allowing you to revisit your favourite roads or share them with others. Have the weather suit your mood Instantly switch between different locations, seasons, weathers, and time-of-day. Toggle through pre-set options at the touch of a button, or enable the daylight cycle for a more dynamic drive. Configure your ride Choose your vehicle and customise its style and physics settings, with controls over colours, wheels, engines, handling, and more. Turn any vehicle into a rugged off-roader or rapid track car. Casual or sim-style driving Define your own vision of driving zen with controls for steer assist, camera pose, optional traffic, and more. Sim enthusiasts can enjoy a configurable cockpit view and support for controller and wheel input* Just drive Free yourself from objectives, challenges, or pressure; simply soak in the views at your own pace. You can even let the car drive for you, with options for automatic steering, automatic speed control, or full autodrive. Steam-exclusive features The Steam version is a sizeable expansion of the web version, with dozens of exclusive upgrades and features: More locations set in other parts of the world, including the US and Europe More road style options, including off-road trails and multi-lane highways More vehicle options Vehicle customisation, both for style and physics tuning Combustion engines and manual transmissions as options for all vehicles Configurable traffic modes A music interface for playing from local files or public radio stations Improved controller support, including UI navigation Profiles for saving your progress and settings Expanded gameplay and graphics settings Improved scenery details and high-definition assets Achievements The web version will remain freely available and will continue to receive small updates into the future, but will represent a minimal experience of the game. Ongoing development Slow Roads is a living project with new features, locations, and vehicles in continuous development. The roadmap is long, and while the following features can't be guaranteed, the goals for future updates are: A scene editing tool which helps you to craft your ideal road New locations, featuring mountains, oceans, tunnels, and more More vehicles, with improved physics Improved graphics features for lighting, weather, and environmental detail Multiplayer game modes, for shared driving or competitive gameplay The game will continue to receive content updates for these features beyond the initial release. A note on AI No AI has been used to generate any of the code or assets used in Slow Roads; this has been a purely human endeavour from the beginning of the project in 2021. Slow Roads is a solo-developed project, built with a decade of industry experience. Assets are created first-hand where possible - for example, most textures are either composed of photos taken in my local area or hand-drawn. All code is hand-written. It is my firm belief that AI has no place in any artistic exploit and it will never be used for generating any elements of Slow Roads. Please note that procedural generation is not a form of generative AI; the procedures are hand-written mathematical functions that are used to generate the environments according to specific rules, and they were designed with creative intent. * Force feedback support is targeted for release but remains in experimental development, so cannot be guaranteed at this time
