Slow Roads is a casual driving game designed to capture the zen of a long drive on a scenic road. Zone out as you coast along lifelike roads that wind endlessly through procedurally-generated landscapes, with configurable locations, road styles, seasons, weather, and vehicles. Generate a unique world, throw on some music, and just drive.
Simply chase the horizon through endless, ever-unique landscapes, with no objectives, challenges, or distractions. Disconnect from stress while you roll through valleys, fields, forests, and coastlines at your own pace. Minimalism is the focus; this a therapeutic escape, designed for a particular kind of person.
A novel procedural engine generates the landscapes and roads organically, meaning every stretch of road is unique and non-repeating. Choose your preferred style, from casual to winding corners, wide or narrow, and paved or off-road. World generation is seeded, allowing you to revisit any especially nice road you find.
Select a location and instantly switch between scene styles to suit your mood, with options for sun, cloud, snow, and time-of-day. Locations are based on real places - roll through the hills of the Peak District, coast along the California shore, or rove Off-World if you really need an escape.
"Driving zen" means different things to different people, whether that's cruising in the coupe, rallying in the hatch, or kissing each apex with the sports car. Maybe take the coach for a slow tour, or try hitting the perfect lean into every corner with the bike.
Optionally customise your vehicle's style and tuning, with controls over colours, wheels, plates, engines, handling, and more. Any vehicle's engine can be electric or combustion, with the latter having options for manual or automatic transmission.
Configure the gameplay to your own comforts with controls for steer assist, camera pose, traffic, and more. You can even let the car drive for you, with options for automatic steering, automatic speed control, or full autodrive. The cockpit view can be configured for sim-style driving, with support for controllers and wheels*
*Please note that force feedback is not currently supported by the engine, but is planned for a near-term content update. Check out the demo to verify your device's compatibility.
Slow Roads is designed for minimalist gameplay, with a lightweight engine that is hyper-optimised for endless, real-time environment generation - less so for crash physics or stunts. Take it slow, stay on the road, and let the simplicity of a mindless drive scratch an itch you didn't know you had. Having said that, nobody will stop you if you prefer to cruise at 300kph or rally on the mountain trails...
If you've played the web version, you may wonder what's going to be different on Steam. In the full game you'll find dozens of exclusive upgrades and features, including:
Extra locations, starting with the new California coast
New road styles, including off-road trails
New vehicles, starting with the Hatch and Sports car
Vehicle customisation, both for style and physics tuning
Options for combustion engines and manual transmissions for all vehicles
Configurable traffic modes - set density, speed, and which lane(s) they drive in
A music interface for playing from local files or public radio stations
Improved scenery detail and high-definition assets
Improved controller support
Profiles for saving your progress and settings
Expanded settings for gameplay and graphics
Milestone achievements
Lastly, buying on Steam enables the web version to remain free and ad-free for everybody, while supporting ongoing development. Since initial release in 2022, the web version has never featured ads, microtransactions, or paywalls. It will remain this way and will continue to receive small updates into the future, though will represent a more minimal experience of the game.
This kind of minimal gameplay isn't for everyone - check out the demo or try the web version first to see if it hits the spot. The demo is also the best way to compare differences between the Steam and web versions, and to check device compatibility. Some features are locked or limited in the demo, but all are instantly available in the full game.
Slow Roads is a living project, with active development of extra locations, features, and vehicles continuing beyond initial release. The list is long, but the main goals for upcoming updates include:
Force feedback support for wheel controllers
Rain, dynamic weather effects, and a day/night cycle
New locations set elsewhere in the world (see WIP of an Alps location above)
Enhanced environmental details like structures and wildlife
A world editor allowing you to alter parameters and generate custom locations
These are intended to be free updates to the core game; there are currently no plans to gate future features behind DLCs, though as the core game grows the base price may rise in alignment.
No AI has been used to generate any code or content in or about the game, and never will be. Slow Roads has been a labour of love since it began as a hobby project in 2021, and has been built with a decade of experience in 3D graphics and creative software development. Textures are hand-drawn, sounds are recorded locally, and all systems are designed and engineered specifically for the unique context of the game. The graphics are simple, but deliberate; most effort is spent on the invisible elements of the custom engine. This is a solo-developed project that I take great care over; it's an art piece more than a commercial venture. In general I think that using AI to shortcut creativity is a great loss for everyone besides those selling the tools to do it.
Please note that procedural generation is not a form of generative AI; the procedures used to generate the world in the game are mathematical functions that have been derived and defined by hand, with direct creative intent.

Great game so far. Don't go in expecting to be working toward a specific goal. Instead, enjoy some of the best vehicle handling in the video game industry while taking in procedurally generated landscapes where no two seeds (or even stretches of road within each seed) look the same. It's really one of those titles you can throw on anytime, for however long you want, whether that's a quick 15-minute session on your lunch break or a 2-hour deep dive to completely zone out from reality for a bit. The game lets you customize just about everything, although my favorites are the different camera angles (first person makes the whole game feel different) and the "scene" selection, which is the umbrella term covering time of the day, weather (no rain or snow implemented, although I hear that's coming), and season. Aside from the concept, which I love, what really made me pull the trigger on this purchase only a few days after release was the dev's willingness to listen to the community and implement new features constantly. The road map is ever-evolving, and it really sounds like we're in for a treat. I cannot recommend this game enough. P.S.: The game will run on a potato, but it's also possible to max out every setting to get the most out of more powerful rigs.

It is the road that never ends, Yes, it goes on and on, my friends! Some people started driving it, not knowing what it was, And they’ll continue driving it forever just because— It is the road that never ends..

It is a very nice relaxation game, with full customisation of the car mechanics (fast, traction, ev or not), procedurally generated maps, built in online radio, or plays from a folder playlist here are some of my wishes - more different maps - modded cars - edit the cars gear ratio - ability to link the in game music with spotify
This game has genuinely impressed me with how simple yet well it works. It is a fancy screen saver but it does it so well that I sometimes just leave it on while I do other things on my computer. The autopilot works wonderfully and the simple yet beautiful graphics make it so soothing to just watch the car go on its own for hours without failing. I like to add some traffic on the opposite lane to give it that feeling of going home after a really long day and seeing others returning to theirs. I would like to see scene/atmospheric events added to the game, like rain or fog and a midnight option across every scene. Very good game.
