Dashy Crashy Turbo takes pole position at the Big Indie Pitch at Apps World London

Dumpling Design’s racer Dashy Crashy Turbohas taken pole position at the Big Indie Pitch at Apps World London.

The quirky game sends players on an endless road-trip as they hurtle down the highway at breakneck speeds, all the while avoiding a series of hazards.

There will be crashing, lots of crashing.

He looks reasonably pleased to wield the mythical Big Indie Pitch bat.

In second place was Asobi Tech’s Dr Harrison and the Blood Crystals. Players must jump and duck over obtacles as they speed run through over 50 levels.

The team previously hooked the game up to a dance mat to really test players’ reflexes and fitness.

Rounding off the top three was Leviathan Creative’s expertly named Starbeard, a match-three title about the age old video game trope of beardy gnomes hunting cosmic dragons.
