Speed Punks

About

Speed Punks is a chaotic racing game for PlayStation that lets you compete against a friend or three others using a multi-tap. You zoom through wacky tracks while launching missiles, slinging sticky slime, and grabbing speed boosts to sabotage rivals. The gameplay leans into over-the-top antics more than precise racing mechanics, with a focus on hijinks over handling. Tracks mix urban sprawl and abstract nonsense, giving you plenty of room to zigzag and disrupt opponents. What sticks is the sheer silliness of the weapons and the ease of local multiplayer. The slime glob that sticks to cars and the rocket launcher that turns corners into obstacles feel unexpectedly inventive for late '90s racing. While it doesn’t hold up to modern physics-driven racers, its retro charm and instant chaos make it a nostalgic pick for PS1 party rooms.
