Some devs want their game to stand out in their field, y'know do something never been done before. Hard to do in the land of Steam but by Jove they did it! Erk, careful what you wish for,,,,, :) Its basically a 2.5D platform puzzler when you drive around in a limousine fulfilling ever harder tasks and meeting people as you go, with excellently hammy real film cut-scenes progressing the story. Apart from the main storyline there are collectables, side missions and mini-game challenges, all of which give a completion rating you can compare within the game against your Steam friends.

About This Game
Roundabout is a '70s B-Movie game where you drive a constantly revolving limousine! Pick up passengers, find secret collectibles, take on dangerous missions, and fall in love in an open world puzzle adventure. Roundabout is the debut title from No Goblin, a studio founded by designers of games like Destroy All Humans!, The Gunstringer, and Rock Band!
In Roundabout, you need to pick up passengers and drive them to their destinations. The catch: your limousine is constantly spinning in circles! To move around in Roundabout, you need to time your limousine's movement with the constant rotation in order to curve around obstacles, buildings, and more.
Set in 1977, Roundabout tells the rise to fame story of Georgio Manos, arguably the world's most famous revolving chauffeur. While driving players around the town of Roundabout, players will learn about the dizzying highs, terrifying lows, and secret loves of a revolving limousine driver. You'll experience the seventies in the only authentic way possible: with full motion video set in the interior of a limousine.
