About Drive Mad
Drive Mad is a physics driving game where the challenge is balance, not speed. You drive a vehicle over terrain built to flip you: hills, ramps, bridges, and gaps. Flooring the throttle gets you upside down; the game rewards gentle inputs and careful braking.
The physics are the core of it. The vehicle reacts to the terrain realistically, so holding your balance on a steep incline or after a big jump takes real control. Each level adds new terrain types and hazards, and the difficulty curve eases you in before the levels start stacking multiple hazards into sequences that need precise timing.
How to Play
Up arrow or W to accelerate, down arrow or S to brake and reverse. Reach the finish flag without flipping over.
Control your speed on hills and ramps. Too much speed and you flip on landing; too little and you get stuck on an incline. The goal is to arrive at the flag wheels-down.

Tips
Take new obstacles slowly the first time. Understanding what a section needs stops you failing it repeatedly from a wrong approach.
Use the brake to control rotation in the air. Tapping brake while airborne tilts you forward, which helps you land wheels-down after a jump.
Backing up is allowed. If you hit an obstacle at a bad angle, reversing to retry beats forcing it.
Read the terrain for the speed it needs. Long gaps want momentum; tight obstacle sections want careful control.
