Hard Diesel

Team car combat in a steel cage, from Overboard Games.

Hard Diesel puts two teams of rocket-boosted cars in a closed steel cage sunk in the desert. Cars boost, jump, roll in the air and drive up the walls and over the roof, and fight with rockets, homing missiles, a minigun, a laser and a bouncing cannon, all picked up from orbs on the floor, along with repairs, shields, chaff, chargers and cloaks. Ramming an enemy hurts both cars.

Players matchmake into Team Deathmatch online, play Ranked Deathmatch in rounds with no respawns, host private matches with their own rules and an invite code, or play split screen with up to four at one PC, with bots in every empty seat.
