Our take on Undercity
The focus on rapid tunnel navigation gives up the flexibility of open exploration: progress is organized around fixed levels and immediate route decisions. Movement-changing upgrades add variety, but they also require players to reconsider handling rather than rely on one stable approach.
What is Undercity?
Undercity is a fast action game built around steering a jet-powered board through underground tunnels while avoiding hazards.
Its tunnel physics create changing angles that require quick route planning. The campaign contains 26 levels across five environments, combining procedural sections with hand-crafted challenges rather than repeating one stage for higher scores. Progression uses a skill tree whose upgrades alter movement instead of only increasing statistics, so different combinations can change how each run is approached. The game includes varied environmental soundtracks and gradually tests control and route-reading skills. A single developer handled the design, programming, artwork, and music over a year and a half.
