Hey there everyone,

We're celebrating the launch of the Steam Summer Sale with an awesome 25% off Dark Future: Blood Red States. So, if you have it on your wishlist and have been waiting for a discount, now is the best time to get involved!







A new gang has hit the big empty and they aren't what they first seem.

Known more commonly as the Demon Engines, these vehicles are controlled by a sentient AI gone rogue.

No one knows why they have turned up, and no one knows how they gained their powers, but everyone knows they are a danger on the road.

See how you do against them in the latest update Ballyhillin (more details on our Discussions Page)

Hey everyone,
