Classic Sport Driving is designed in the spirit of retro racers like Lotus Turbo Challenge and Outrun, so if you like the old style of racing this one might be for you. Originally released back in June 2023, the developer just recently added Native Linux support to the game.

Featuring classic arcade racing with time trials, a campaign to play through and unlimited challenges with their own track generator so you can play through a new race any time you want. Generated tracks even have their own online leaderboards for you to challenge others.

Looks interesting. Since we are never going to get Horizon Chase 2 because of that damned Epic Store eclusivity, this looks like a good replacement. I'll have to check it out.
