Wet Paint Laps
Wet Paint Laps is a top-down racing game that plays in the browser on phones, tablets and computers, for one player against bots. It has a daily challenge, the same for everyone that day.
A top-down racing game against five labelled bots on generated circuits, three laps a race. Every car leaves a stripe of wet paint: your own paint raises your top speed by a tenth and a rival's slows you, so the line you take on lap one becomes your fast lane. Race four cups of five races, or drive today's track against two ghosts.
How to play
- Steer with ← and →. Your car speeds up by itselfOn a touch screen: Hold the left or right half of the screen to steer
- Brake with ↓ before tight bendsOn a touch screen: Hold both halves to brake before tight bends
- Your own paint makes you faster; other cars’ paint slows you. Pass on your own line
The game shows these steps as you play, the first time.
Controls
- Steer: ← → or A D, or hold the left or right half
- Brake: ↓ or S, or hold both halves
- Esc pauses
Tips
- Paint stays wet for about 32 seconds, roughly one lap, so drive the same line every lap and your own stripe will lift your top speed by 10%.
- Never sit right behind a bot: its fresh paint cuts your top speed to 88%, so pull out to a clean lane before you try to overtake.
- A flat out hairpin slides wide onto the grass, where your top speed halves, so brake just before the tightest bends and steer in early.
How do the cups work?
Each cup is five races on different tracks, with 10, 7, 5, 3, 2 and 1 points for first to sixth. Finishing a cup in the top three opens the next one, and the bots get quicker in every cup up to the fourth.
What is the daily ghost lap?
Everyone gets the same track for the day. You drive three laps alone against a ghost of your best lap today and a labelled bot's ghost, and your own paint still speeds you up on laps two and three.
