Can't Drive This is an arcade game where one player races while the other player builds the track.

<h2>Overview</h2><p>Can't Drive This is a multiplayer co-op <del>raging</del> racing party game for PC and OS X. One player drives a vehicle while the other player builds the road. The driver can't go too fast or they'll fall off the track – but not too slow, either, because going under 20mph will turn the vehicle into a big fiery explosion.</p><p> </p><h2>Development</h2><p>Can't Drive This was originally developed during the Ludum Dare game jam in early 2016. The prototype made it through Steam Greenlight well before the contest ended and received favorable reviews on several large-scale gaming sites. Can't Drive This was created in Unity and marks the second desktop-release of indie Studio Pixel Maniacs.</p><p> </p><h2>System Requirements</h2><ul><li><strong>OS: </strong>Windows Vista (or newer) / Mac OS X 10.8 (or newer)</li><li><strong>Processor: </strong>2.0GHz Dual Core</li><li><strong>Memory: </strong>2GB RAM</li><li><strong>Graphics: </strong>NVIDIA GTX 460 / AMD Radeon HD 5550 with 1024 MB</li><li><strong>Storage: </strong>1GB Free Storage</li></ul><h2>External Links</h2><ul><li><a href="http://www.cantdrivethis.com" rel="nofollow ">Official Website</a></li><li><a href="https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=668455587" rel="nofollow ">Steam Greenlight Page</a></li><li><a href="http://steamed.kotaku.com/a-racing-game-where-someone-else-builds-the-road-youre-1771870643" rel="nofollow ">Review on Kotaku</a></li></ul>
