Inspiration

Inspired by fast-paced mobile racing games and the fun of customizing vehicles, Traffic Rush: King of the Streets builds on the remixable No Brakes template found here, letting anyone experience the thrill of city racing in Meta Horizon Worlds.

What it does

Players race through busy streets, dodge vehicles and obstacles, collect diamonds, and compete for leaderboard ranks in a vibrant multiplayer world. You earn points while driving, and the faster you drive, as well as the more near misses you pile up, the more points you get. Car selection enhances every run for solo or competitive players. The car selection menu displays detailed stats for each vehicle, including Engine, Brake, Steer, Snap, Friction, Mass, Gears, and Reverse, helping players make informed choices before hitting the streets. You need to collect or buy diamonds to purchase new cars.

How we built it

The game was built in Meta Horizon Worlds using the No Brakes template as a remixable foundation. We added new obstacles, multiplayer features, custom cars, and original gameplay tweaks using the Horizon scripting tools and creative assets.

Challenges we ran into

Integrating multiplayer features and balancing gameplay for accessibility and competition proved challenging. Adapting the template and optimizing performance for smooth gameplay took significant testing and iteration.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We transformed a template into a full-featured multiplayer racing experience with custom cars, unique obstacles and npc vehicles, and active leaderboards. The responsive feel and engaging play loop are major highlights. Traffic Rush: King of the Streets has already seen over 400 unique players enter and participate in the world, with more than 60 hours of collective playtime—even though the game has been live for less than a month.

What we learned

Remixing templates in Horizon Worlds saves development time but requires creativity to deliver a fresh experience. We learned advanced scripting and effective game balancing for all player levels.

What's next for Traffic Rush: King of the Streets

Future plans include more tracks, special events, and deeper car customization. We aim to grow our player community by adding features based on feedback and expanding competitive play.
