New release trayler.

The next game from Bit Loom Games, the creators of Phogs!, it will launch on PC and Nintendo Switch.

Tray Racers! has players racing down sandy slopes on a tray, as the name would suggest.

It's set in a cosy post-apocalypse and has procedurally generated tracks consisting of multiple sandy biomes, with players racing for the top time in both the initial practice and a final race for a combined score.

I previewed the game back in January, describing it as "riotous, simplistic fun", reminding me a little of N64 classic Snowboard Kids but without the power-ups.

"Crucially, Tray Racers has that one-more-go factor thanks to its immediacy. If you're looking to indulge your inner-child, this is well worth a look."

Tray Racers! is available to wishlist now on Steam and the Nintendo eShop.
