The car never lifts off the throttle on a road that never ends. Hold the screen to lean into the corner ahead; let go to run straight. Run wide or cut the inside and you hit the rumble strip, which slows you and kills your heat; go past it and you crash. Clean corners build heat, a score multiplier. Every ten corners is a gate with a car part to pick. The run ends at the first crash.

Hairpin
Hold to turn. Let go to fly.
Overview
About Hairpin
A one-touch top-down driving game: the car never lifts, you hold to lean into the corner and let go for the straight. Stay off the strips.
Gameplay
How it plays
- Hold anywhere to turn into the bend ahead; release to straighten.
- Feather the hold: a long hold cuts the inside, no hold runs wide.
- Rumble strips slow you and reset your heat; beyond them is a crash.
- Clean corners build heat, a multiplier on every metre.
- Every ten corners is a gate with one of three parts.
Depth
What makes runs different
- Early apex or late, and when to let go.
- Parts trade safety for speed: sharp tyres and a big engine, or wide strips and a roll cage.
- The hairpins stop being frightening.

FAQ
Common questions
Why does the car keep turning?
While you hold, the car leans toward the inside of the corner ahead. Let go and it straightens by itself. Short, repeated holds keep it on the line.
What is heat?
A multiplier built by clean corners. It cools on long straights and resets when you touch a rumble strip.
What ends a run?
A crash: going past a rumble strip on either side of the road. The Roll Cage part forgives one crash per gate.
Where is my progress stored?
Progress, records, unlocks, the saved run and the sound/haptics settings are stored on the device only (UserDefaults and the app's own Application Support folder). Deleting the app deletes them. x3r0soft never receives them. See the Privacy Policy for details.
How do I reset?
Settings → Reset progress clears records, unlocks and any saved run; sound and haptics settings are kept.
