Tanuki Sunset Arcade Racing

Game Introduction

Tanuki Sunset is a third-person longboard-skating game where players control a raccoon skating downhill on a synthwave-themed seaside road. The road is procedurally generated, so each run presents a new layout. Your goal is to drift around narrow corners, collect Tanuki Bits to fill your Bonus Meter, and gather as many points as possible. Drift often, get air-time off ramps, and avoid cars and obstacles. Push your luck close to walls and edges to earn near-miss and tight-squeeze bonuses. The game combines skill-based steering with risk-reward mechanics, making each descent a fresh test of reflexes.

How to Play

Use your keyboard or controller to steer the raccoon left or right. Press the drift button to slide around corners and maintain speed. Jump off ramps to earn air-time points. Collect Tanuki Bits scattered on the road to fill your Bonus Meter, which gives extra points when full. Avoid crashing into cars and obstacles by swerving or jumping. For higher scores, skate close to walls and edges without hitting them to trigger near-miss bonuses. You can also practice tricks like longboarding backwards. The game saves your best score, encouraging replay to beat your record.

Game Features

Tips for Success

Focus on smooth drifts around corners to maintain speed and avoid obstacles. Collect as many Tanuki Bits as possible to fill your Bonus Meter quickly.
