The Loopler

About The Loopler

The Loopler is by Mheep and came out on Steam in September 2026 after a demo earlier in the year. A slot car drives round and round a track on its own. You decide what happens as it does: draft cards that add points, speed, multipliers, ghost cars or dice rolls, place gates in the track's slots to trigger more effects, and collect passive charms. Each round has a goal to reach, and the aim is to build chain reactions that push the numbers towards infinity.

The game has nine cars with their own effects, nine tracks with different layouts, 50 cards, 30 gates, 70 charms and five difficulty modes. The order of gates and the neighbours of each card matter, so a good run comes from arranging pieces as much as from picking them.

The Daily Challenge uses a fixed seed, so every player gets the same random events that day. The developer has confirmed that only the daily is seeded; the weekly challenge is not. The daily has leaderboards you can view from the top or the bottom, so players compete both for the biggest score and for the fewest loops. Achievements reward submitting a daily score and submitting five daily scores.

It suits players who enjoy Balatro-style number chasing and want a fixed run each day to compare with everyone else.

How to play The Loopler

1. Buy The Loopler on Steam and open the Daily Challenge.
2. Draft cards between rounds and place them where their triggers will chain.
3. Put gates in the track's slots and collect charms to add effects as the car loops.
4. Reach each round's goal and keep building until the run ends.
5. Submit your result and see where it lands on the day's leaderboards.

Tips

• Since the daily seed is fixed, a second attempt sees the same choices, so you can learn from your first run.
• Cards that trigger off neighbouring cards are stronger when placed side by side.
• Gate order on the track matters; try different arrangements before adding more gates.
