FAQ

Drive Mad is all about navigating through challenging levels while maintaining control of your vehicle:

  1. Start by selecting a level - each presents a unique obstacle course
  2. Use the arrow keys or WASD to control your car's speed and balance
  3. Balance your car when airborne to ensure proper landing
  4. Collect all stars in each level for a perfect score
  5. Reach the finish line without flipping your car or getting stuck
  6. Complete levels to unlock new and more challenging courses
  7. Try to beat your previous time on each level

Success requires a combination of careful acceleration, precise braking, and maintaining balance as you navigate the increasingly difficult obstacles throughout the game.

Drive Mad features simple but nuanced controls:

Keyboard Controls:

  • Up Arrow / W: Accelerate
  • Down Arrow / S: Brake/Reverse
  • Left Arrow / A: Tilt car backwards (balance when in air)
  • Right Arrow / D: Tilt car forwards (balance when in air)
  • R: Restart level
  • P: Pause game
  • M: Mute/unmute sound

You can also click the fullscreen button in the top right to enjoy the game in fullscreen mode for a more immersive experience.

How do I unlock new levels?
You need to successfully complete the current available levels to unlock new ones. Each level you beat will unlock the next level in sequence. Some special levels might require collecting a certain number of stars across all levels to unlock.
My car keeps flipping over. What am I doing wrong?
Maintaining balance is crucial in Drive Mad. When in the air, use the left and right arrow keys (or A and D) to adjust your car's angle. Before hitting jumps, manage your speed - sometimes going too fast causes you to flip, while other times you need enough momentum to clear obstacles. Practice using gentle taps for acceleration and braking rather than holding the keys down.
Are there different vehicles I can unlock?
Yes! As you progress through levels and collect stars, you can unlock different vehicles with varying handling characteristics. Some vehicles are better for speed, others for control or handling obstacles. Try different vehicles if you're struggling with a particular level.
The game is running slowly. How can I improve performance?
If you're experiencing lag, try closing other browser tabs and applications. On mobile devices, make sure you don't have too many apps running in the background. You can also try lowering the quality in the game settings menu if available. Playing in fullscreen mode sometimes helps with performance issues as well.
