Sometimes, you just wanna toss an N64 cartridge in your trunk and drive cross-country to game with an old friend, and as unlikely a concept for a video game as that might seem, it's exactly what you do in Keep Driving. This RPG's offbeat approach to its unusual subject matter instantly charmed me, and while there are some rough edges in its Steam Next Fest demo, I can't wait to see more.
You start by naming your character and choosing a few character traits, like your current job status and how good your relationship with your parents is. From there, you load up your trunk with a bit of Resident Evil-style inventory Tetris, and select your next destination from a map. Your car starts up and gets moving without your input, leaving you to sit back and respond to the various events that unfold.
