Velocity Blocks
24 tracks, White to Black
Stadium, Desert, Water
Floodlit stadiums, dunes at sunset, bridges over lakes and rivers.
OpenFree 3D racing game
Velocity Blocks is a time-attack racer made of road blocks. Take every checkpoint, shave off tenths, and chase the hidden Author medal across 24 tracks. Then build your own.
Android may block installs from unknown sources. If it does, tap Settings, allow your browser (or file manager) to install apps, go back and tap Install.
Windows may say Windows protected your PC because the app isn't signed yet. Click More info, then Run anyway.
Open it in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen: it opens full-screen like an app. Hold the phone sideways.

Why Velocity Blocks
Free, and nothing to sign up for
The APK, the Windows app and the browser version have the whole game unlocked. No ads, no account, no tracking.
Plays offline
Every track, the editor, your times, medals and ghosts live on your device.
Smooth on modest phones
Graphics pick Low, Medium or High by themselves to keep the frame rate up. The physics run at a fixed 100 Hz either way.
Already have it?
The Android and Windows apps look for new versions by themselves, at most once a day, and ask before updating. Tap Update now: the update downloads in the app and installs over the top, and your times, medals, ghosts and tracks stay as they are. (APKs older than 1.2.2 download it in the browser once; older than 1.2.0, install the new one by hand.)
24 tracks
Three worlds, one clock
Every track is a sprint against the timer: a 3-2-1 countdown, a 10 ms clock, checkpoints in any order, and an instant restart when a run goes wrong.
- Stadium, A01 to A12: from the White warm-ups to the Black Grand Tour
- Desert, D01 to D06: sand off the road, dunes, mesas and sunsets
- Water, W01 to W06: bridges and jumps over lakes and rivers, splash zones
- Bronze, Silver and Gold, then the Author medal: an autopilot has to finish every track, and its time is the one to beat
Desert and Water
Off the road is slow. In the lake is worse.
Ground-level roads have no barriers, so you can cut across the grass or the sand, but they hold you to about 100 km/h. A checkpoint only counts between its posts, so shortcuts can't skip one.
Drop into the water and you're back at the last checkpoint, with the clock still running. Prefer a friendlier ride? Turn on Walls on all roads; those times are kept apart.
Car, bike, truck
Pick a ride, fire the nitro
The car comes with four bodies (Racer, Buggy, Muscle and Formula) that look different and drive the same. The bike and the truck handle their own way and keep their own records and medals.
Nitro sits under your left thumb and recharges six seconds after every boost. Turbo and boost pads on the road add more.
Want it to look real? Switch the look to Realistic for the Sport, Coupe and Sedan, the Cafe Racer bike or the LCT 3000 '95 truck.
Real handling
Learn the line, then lose it
Turn on the racing line and the road shows you what a pace driver would do: green for full throttle, yellow to lift, red to brake. It plans with the car's real grip and braking, and custom tracks get theirs worked out in the background.
- Downforce: fast corners hold more grip than slow ones
- ABS brakes and traction control (Normal, or Low to let the rear wheels spin)
- Tap the brake while steering to drift
Ghosts and replays
Race yourself
Your personal best is saved and raced as a ghost, with split times at every checkpoint. Finish and the results card counts your medals in.
Watch the run back from chase, far and trackside cameras at full, half or quarter speed.
Track editor
Snap. Test. Share.
Fifteen block types on a 32 × 32 grid with eight height levels: straights, curves, slopes, boost and turbo pads, jump ramps, splash zones and water.
- Rotate, erase and undo, with route checks as you build
- An autopilot check, then test drives: your first finish sets the author time
- Save to My tracks, or export and import

Your controls
Drive it your way
Steer with the arrow buttons, an on-screen wheel or by tilting the phone. Drive with analog gas and brake bars, or round on/off pedals. Auto-accelerate is one switch away.
Your driver profile holds a name, a photo that floats above your car (it never leaves the phone), the colour, the body and the camera. Keyboard and gamepad work too.
Get it on every device
The same game everywhere, free with everything unlocked. Each device keeps its own records.
Android
Android 6.0 and up. Updates itself from 1.2.2 on: it downloads the new version in the game and asks Android to install it.
Download APK
8.3 MB
Windows
Windows 10 and 11, 64-bit. Keyboard or gamepad, F11 for full screen. The installer adds Start menu and desktop shortcuts and updates itself; the portable .exe runs without installing.
Not signed yet: if Windows says Windows protected your PC, click More info, then Run anyway.
iPhone and iPad
Apple only lets App Store apps be installed, and Velocity Blocks isn't there yet. Play it in Safari instead: tap Share, then Add to Home Screen, and it opens full-screen with its own icon.
Mac, Linux, Chromebook
Any up-to-date Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari. Nothing to install; records stay in that browser.
Play in your browser
The same game with everything unlocked, on a computer or a phone held sideways. Keyboard, gamepad or touch. Records stay in that browser.
What leaves your phone
Nothing, apart from one small check for updates.
Stays on your phone
- Your name, photo, colour and vehicle
- Times, medals, ghosts and replays
- The tracks you build, and your settings

- The APK asks GitHub for the latest release, at most once a day. No personal data, identifiers or game data go with it.
- The Google Play version never asks: Play updates it.
- No ads, no account, no analytics, no crash reporting.
