Info about LANESPLIT:

Official game description:
**Multiplayer Mode**
Ride solo or with friends. The faster you ride, the higher your score multiplier, with the biggest rewards coming from high speeds and close, skillful lane splitting. Crashes or driving too slowly will reset your current points to zero with your highest points being saved to the global leaderboards.
**Multiple Weather and Traffic Settings**
Conquer dry roads with ease by selecting bikes with high top speed and agile handling, and maximize traction and stopping power during wet-weather rides.  
Test riding reflexes during Rush Hour mode, and become one with the road in Zen mode, where you have the road all to yourself.
**Become King of the Road**
As breakneck speeds turn the world into a blur, enter a flow state as LANESPLIT’s drum & bass soundtrack increases in volume as you accelerate (and comes to a crashing halt when colliding with traffic).
