Steer Cars Using Just Your Eyes in Open Drive, Out in Early Access on Android

Open Drive, the innovative mobile racing game, is now available in early access on Android. Developed by the charity organization SpecialEffect in collaboration with Sun & Moon Studios, this game is not just about racing; it's a beacon of accessibility in gaming. Open Drive is designed to be inclusive, allowing players to use a variety of input methods including touch, keyboard and mouse, switch access, or a controller.

What’s the Game About?

Open Drive redefines gaming accessibility by offering a flexible experience that caters to all players, regardless of their physical abilities. One of its standout features is mobile-specific eye control, enabling players to steer their vehicle simply by looking left or right with a compatible eye gaze camera. This groundbreaking feature is a game-changer, particularly for players with physical disabilities who may struggle with traditional input methods.

The game spans four diverse open worlds: Stunt, Speed, Snow, and Meadow, where players can enjoy a variety of gameplay styles. Whether you prefer a relaxed drive to collect orbs or aim for high scores with daring jumps using the Roadster, Trickster, or Speedster, Open Drive offers something for everyone. You can even adjust the speed to your liking, making the experience truly customizable.
