Desert Child is a racer that taps into the same peaks and troughs as Cowboy Bebop

Getting food in your stomach and fuel in your hoverbike are your two priorities in Oscar Brittain’s debut, Desert Child - an explosive action-racing game. You play as a young hoverbike racer who’s trying to scrape enough money together to enter the biggest race in the universe, the Grand Prix. On Mars. You’ll need to race your way to the top through skill and upgrading your bike with new tech. The problem is that you're hungry, broke, and your current bike is a heap of junk. You’ll have to earn your money through back alley dealings, bounties, hacking computers, delivering pizzas, throwing races, and anything else you can think of to get a quick buck. In the trailer and vibrant screenshots you can see echoes of other sci-fi media. Desert Child has the scrappy ruggedness of Cowboy Bebop, the gritty races of Akira, and Redline’s vibrant pops of colour. We spoke to Desert Child’s one-man team about how these inspirations influenced the way he constructed the world and visuals of Desert Child.
