Carotic is a top-down 3D couch-co-op hide-and-seek game for 2-4 players. Each player plays the role of a car in a very busy city. Their task is to drive like the other NPC cars while trying to identify the other players. In order to gain points the other players must be destroyed by dashing into them. The player with the most points after a set amount of time wins. The players' goal is to find the other competitors and dash into them resulting in points for this player and destruction with a short respawn timer for the other. Dashing NPCs does not penalize the player apart from revealing them because of the particle effect and speed up that they gain. Round duration is configurable and there are plenty of different game modes to spice things up. Very Carotic gameplay and a fun time for everyone playing. You will need at least two players to play this game with. The most fun will be if the other persons you are playing with are with you in the room but the game supports stream remote play, so you can also play with your friends online. You can configure your car models, explosion particles and dash particles from several options.

A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.
