Howard Phillips Lovecar is an indie arcade title that thrives on its sheer absurdity. Developed by The Secret Pie and published by The Secret Pie alongside Kurki.games, the game takes the themes of cosmic horror and filters them through an energetic top-down shooter centered around a heavily armed car. Rather than focusing on narrative or atmospheric exploration, it throws players directly into a hostile wasteland where fanatical cultists are racing against the clock to unleash ancient beings upon the world. It is a premise that sounds like a joke at first, but the game commits wholeheartedly to its bizarre identity, and that commitment is what makes it memorable. The gameplay revolves around speed, destruction, and survival. Players are tasked with driving across an open desert environment while eliminating cultists before their rituals succeed.

Plain and simple, the game doesn't work. I can sit in the menu, no problem. But once I start playing, it crashes after 3 seconds. Every single time.
