Only buy it on sale and only if you: A) like artsy, aesthetic games B) don't mind grinding The game isn't bad, but it's not what I would call fun. The races can be switched up slightly with bike upgrades but the core gameplay is largely static. You do one thing and you do it often. The world itself is cool until you realize that's all there is to explore and what can be explored is rather shallow. No conversations, just 1-2 lines when you visit the merchant, the mechanic, etc. The game is a good effort from a small indie team but with so many good games—indie or otherwise—just waiting to be played, sinking hours into getting a little bit of cash on the way to the $10,000 goal just doesn't seem worth it. I finally quit when the cops took all my cash after 1-2 hours of grinding.

This is not a racing game. The main way to progress is to play a racing/shooting mini-game with a variety of maps of different aesthetics and goals for each race, but thats not how you will spend most of your time. One will spend most of their time exploring the world, and that is where this game shines. The world is designed as if it were in the cowboy bebop universe with music and tone to match. The overall art of this game is beautiful and the characters you interact with all have a unique quality. This game constantly references hip-hop and jazz, making one smile and laugh from time to time. I payed $11 for this game and have really enjoyed it, but I would wait for the price to drop. If the desert punk bebop vibe of this game interests you at all, I highly recommend it. I have played nothing like it, and would like to see more titles like this released in the future!
