HYPERPIPES

YOU RACE ON THE OUTSIDE OF A PIPE.
You’re racing a hovering ship on the outside of a giant pipe. Gravity is always trying to pull you down. Staying on top is the fastest line.
Sliding down the side is not a crash. There is no wall unless your too ahead, no reset, no penalty. You can climb back up from anywhere, including underneath. It costs you seconds — nothing else, except maybe a pickup.

EVERY TRACK IS GROWN, NOT DRAWN
Every track begins with a seed. From there, the pipe grows — sweeping curves, corkscrews, pretzels, climbs, drops, changing widths, and twists you won’t see coming.
Choose GROUND, SKY, SPACE or CANYON, then let the Race Lab build the rest.
Roll another seed and the whole thing changes. New pipe. New racing line. New problems to solve.
No two races need to feel the same. Don’t like the track? Reroll it. Love it? Save the seed. Race it again.

RACE LAB
Build a one-off race and reroll the pipe until a layout looks fun. Pick the environment, the race type, the intensity, the pipe width, and how wild the corkscrews get. Save the ones worth keeping.



SIX LEAGUES, AND A PURSE
Start in BRONZE with a stock craft and work up through SILVER, GOLD, PLATINUM, DIAMOND and HYPER. Win money, spend it in the Garage, come back for the race that beat you.
Six ways to run a track:
Classic Race — the field, the flag, the podium

Boost Rush — speed is the only thing that scores

Gun Run — bring ammo

Hazard Gauntlet — the pipe is trying to stop you

Pacifist Run — finish without firing a shot

Rival Duel — one opponent, no hiding

THE GARAGE
Five craft, from the forgiving PIPE RUNNER up to the SPEEDER D. Six upgrade lines — ENGINE, THRUSTERS, STABILIZERS, HULL PLATING, MAGNET and SHOCK COIL — that change how the craft sits on the pipe, not just how fast the number goes.

FIGHT FOR THE LINE
Draft behind a rival to close a gap. Grab a BOOST for a surge that is bigger when you are behind. Pick up AMMO for the cannon, a SHOCK that stuns everyone down the pipe, or a BOUNTY straight into your earnings.
Hold one item at a time: a SHIELD that eats every hit, an AUTOPILOT that drives the perfect line, a TAIL MINE that cannot catch you, or a JAMMER that makes you unlockable.
ALSO IN THE BOX
Leaderboards and the Daily Challenge require an internet connection—single-player, career, split-screen, and the Race Lab work fully offline. Gamepad recommended.

About The Developer
HyperPipes started as a game made by BeefCakePie built in Project Spark on Xbox ten years ago, under the name BeefCakePie. I've always wanted to make a game, and this year I finally sat down and rebuilt it from scratch in Godot — pipes, racing, and all. This one's for anyone who's ever thought "someday I'll make a game" and just needed a push.
