StreetRace Rivals races towards success on Facebook

Social game developer Hypester has launched its newest game on Facebook: StreetRace Rivals. The game challenges players to work from the bottom of the street-racing circuit, starting with a basic consumer vehicle and eventually upgrading it into something much more powerful, and more importantly, fast.

The “racing” in StreetRace Rivals comes via drag races using simple keyboard controls. Players use the up arrow key to shift, the space bar to accelerate and the shift key to use nitrous, which tends to be available at least once per race.
