Introduction to PolyTrack
PolyTrack is a high-speed, low-poly racing game that was developed based on the principle of creative car driving behind the wheel. You shape a car, create your own circuit and attempt to master the circuit and the clock. PolyTrack consists in two things:
- Rapid adrenaline racing where each turn, jump and loop counts.
- An intuitive level editor with great power that allows a player to create tracks completely and distribute to the community and compete with others.
PolyTrack strikes the right chord if you are a person who likes fine-tuning times, busting ghost racers, or fine-tuning courses.
Instruction to Play PolyTrack
PolyTrack welcomes you with two main options: race on the existing tracks or create your own from the ground up.
Getting Started
The players start with trying the ready-made tracks and get to know the driving physics, the layout style, and the overall flow of the game. Once you’re ready, dive into the level editor:
Designing Your Track
- Open the built-in editor
- Add curves, ramps, loops, jumps, and obstacles
- Adjust terrain and track shapes
- Test and refine your course
- Share your track with the community
The game rewards creativity but also patience. Your early tracks may be simple straightaways, but once you understand how speed, balance, and physics work together, you’ll eventually design courses that leap over mountains and twist through stunning landscapes.
Customize Your Car
PolyTrack lets you tweak your ride with options such as:
- Primary car color
- Secondary color
- Frame color
- Rim color
Build a car that feels like yours, then take it to the track.
PolyTrack Controls
PolyTrack uses simple, intuitive controls to keep the focus on speed and precision:
- WASD – Steer and control your car
- Arrow Keys – Alternative steering option
- Spacebar – Main action button (jump / confirm in editor depending on context)
- Mouse – Navigate menus and track editor tools
PolyTrack Features That Make It Unique
PolyTrack stands out because of how seamlessly it blends player creativity with competitive racing. Here’s what makes it special:
Challenge Ghost Racers
One of the game’s most exciting features is the ability to challenge opponents asynchronously. Choose a player from the leaderboard and race against their ghost to compare lines, speed, and timing. You can even race against your own ghost, constantly pushing yourself to shave off fractions of a second.
Track Leaderboards
Before selecting a track, you can check:
- Best lap times
- Verified player runs
- Your own timing history
This makes competition feel tight, personal, and endlessly replayable.
Full Track Editor
Build, export, and share custom tracks with the community. The editor gives you freedom to shape the road exactly how you want it.

Tips to Improve Your PolyTrack Performance
To help you cut down those milliseconds and improve your builds, here are a few useful tips:
- Study ghost racers to learn optimal racing lines.
- Design simple tracks first to understand speed and control.
- Use smooth curves sharp angles often kill momentum.
- Test your track repeatedly before publishing.

PolyTrack is one of those racing games that gives you total creative freedom without overwhelming you. It’s fast, fun, visually charming, and deeply engaging whether you’re racing or building.
