Time for a little retro action with this week’s friday fun. Tasty Static reminds me of old Atari 2600 games – there’s not much to it but it’s brilliant, twitchy, rely on your reflexes fun. It’s also free and available for all major platforms. The gameplay can be summed up in a sentence: arcade racing action on abstract ‘tracks.’ Apparently it’s based on an old game called Skyroads which I never played. Here’s a video to give you a sense of it:

There’s also a ton of content in the form of user-created tracks, and it runs great on even ancient hardware. Check it out!
