A retro arcade racer inspired by the golden age of 80s driving games. Top down, pedal down.
Outburn 87 drops you behind the wheel of a classic convertible on an endless desert highway, bathed in the warm glow of a perpetual sunset. Inspired by the pseudo-3D arcade racers of the late 1980s, the game captures that unmistakable feeling of speed, reflexes, and the open road — distilled into pure, pick-up-and-play arcade action.
Dodge oncoming traffic, weave between roadside obstacles, and push your skills to the limit as the road gets faster and more unpredictable. There's no finish line — only your best distance and the drive to beat it.
Classic sprite-scaling road rendering, just like the coin-op cabinets of 1987. Smooth, fast, and endlessly satisfying.
Hand-crafted pixel art and a sunset colour palette that feels like it belongs on a VHS cover.
Steer left and right, that's it. Simple enough for anyone, deep enough to master over hundreds of runs.
Difficulty ramps gradually so you stay in the zone — that sweet spot where challenge meets skill.
Outburn 87 is free to download and free to play. The entire game. No trial period, no locked content, no energy timers. You won't be interrupted by video ads between runs, harassed by pop-ups asking you to rate, or nudged toward spending money on power-ups. The game respects your time and your attention.
While playing Outburn 87, small planes occasionally fly across the sky — trailing a banner behind them, just like at the beach. These skyplane banners are the only form of messaging in the game, and they're designed to feel like part of the scenery, never like an interruption.
If you'd like your brand or message to appear on a skyplane banner visible to all players, configure your fly-by below. Text only, no links — just pure sky-high visibility. One month of airtime for €9.
One month of airtime. One-time payment via Stripe, no auto-renewal. Your banner will appear in-game within 48 hours. All banner texts are subject to approval — we keep the skies friendly. If your text doesn't fly, we'll work with you on an alternative. No refunds.
Outburn 87 does not collect, store, transmit, or process any personal data. There are no accounts, no analytics, no event logging, no session recording, and no behavioural profiling. Your high scores and game progress are stored locally on your device and never leave it.
The game contains no advertising SDKs, no third-party code, and no tracking of any kind. It does not access your device's advertising identifier (IDFA/GAID), hardware identifiers, or any other unique identifiers. No network access is required during gameplay — the game works entirely offline.
Skyplane banners. The only content loaded from the internet is the skyplane banner configuration — a small text file containing the active banner messages and their colours. This request does not include any user identifiers, device information, or tracking parameters. There is no ad SDK involved, no impression counting tied to individual users, and no click-through tracking. The game simply fetches the current set of banner texts, nothing more.
Children. Because Outburn 87 collects no data whatsoever, there are no special considerations for children's privacy. The game is safe for players of all ages.
App Store and Google Play. When you download Outburn 87, Apple or Google may collect information as described in their own privacy policies. This is outside our control and unrelated to the game itself.
