Ride in a flying car and become a bounty hunter in Blue Drifter!

Sokpop Collective is a prolific developer of small games, releasing a whopping two small experiments every month. The latest, which appeared yesterday on itch.io, is the stylish Blue Drifter, a bounty hunter game set on a miserable, wet planet.

As a bounty hunter, you are just trying to earn enough cash to get off the planet. Once you reach your destination, use your scanner to find your target, take out any enemies that get in your way, and bring back an ID chip to get your reward.

The gunfights are inorganic and without much feedback, and the loops are incredibly simple, but the atmosphere is irresistible. Besides, I'd never turn down a flying car. I much prefer flying around a gloomy green world in a squat vehicle than an actual bounty hunter, and there's plenty of room for exploration.

Much like the wonderful "Bernband" by Tom van der Boogaart of Sokpop. Just do some sightseeing. A sequel is in development, and I would like to see some more of "Blue Drifter".

Bernband is free and Blue Drifter can be checked out for $3. Sokpop also has a Patreon where you get two games for $3 a month.
