Panik Arcade has dropped for Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom that, among other things, adds a “Psycho Taxi” mode that focuses on the Crazy Taxi formula of delivering fares.
Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom is mostly a platformer, but some levels require you to maintain a timer that is filled by picking people up and delivering them to their destination, not unlike Sega’s classic arcadꦐe game. However, it’s much more laidback because, again, the focus isn’t on this mechanic but rather on collecting gears.
Psycho Taxi is a side-mode that omits all that collection nonsense and instead focuses on working a day in the life of a ludicrous shuttler of passengers. From the sounds of thing𝐆s, it’s a neꦯw level rather than a repurposed existing one.
To access it, you need to find an N64 cart in one of the early levels: “Arcade Panic.” O🅰nce you have this, you can visit a Psycho Taxi arcade unit to play t𓂃he new mode.
I reviewed Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom earlier this year, and I loved it. I’ve been disappointed a few times by recent retro-inspired platformers, but it won me over with its infectious hyperactivity. I’m not sure I’m going to reinstall it specifically for this mode, but… You know what? Maybe. Or maybe I’ll just play some Crazy Taxi 3.
Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom is currently available for PC. With the Steam Summer Sale goin🥃g on, it’s also marked down by 20%.
