Game description

In Gelato Drift ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿšš, you race and drift your way around the island in your funky ice cream truck delivering your sweet ice cream to happy customers ๐Ÿ’ธ. Every customers scores you more points, but you better hurry, cause your ice cream only takes ten seconds to melt and will make your truck spin out ๐Ÿ’ฅ!

Try to sell as much ice cream as you can without letting anything melt, and get a higher score by drifting, getting there early and driving clean. Try to score as much points as possible to beat everyone on the leaderboard ๐Ÿ“ˆ, and even if your score isn't the highest, you might still get #1 ๐Ÿ† with the most amount of *sick* drifts ๐Ÿ˜Ž
