Poly

Roll fast. Fight dirty. Finish first. A parkour combat rolling racer from indie developer Digital Natives.

Roly Poly combines momentum-driven racing, playful physics, parkour, and close-quarters disruption. Sprint and roll through obstacle courses packed with bumpers, rotating platforms, rails, lifts, hazards, and shortcuts—then use movement and well-timed attacks to stay ahead of the pack.
