The gameplay felt a bit slow, I wanted to be able to move a little bit faster. It was a good first jam though, I liked the concept. :)

Not bad! One thing about the movement that feels off is that you move pretty slowly but turn very quickly - would probably be better if it were the other way around! A little too easy, but overall a pretty good effort!

I like the background sounds. Steering is a bit sharp, but overall nice job.

I thought the steering was awesome, I literally started getting sick :P

The sound was really well thought out and you did a bit of bfxr mastery. The graphics were decent and stuck to the tried and true primitives so how can you go wrong.

I thought it was really fun and surprised at the lack of comments for such a novel game. Well done on this one!

One thing. When I die I couldn't restart so I had to keep refreshing the browser to reload. What is the key for restarting?

Nice idea, good take on the theme

I enjoyed it, simple although it took me a while to figure out what hurts you and what doesn't. Kinda got the evolution bit.

Sorry cannot vote as jam entrant.

Fun game, would like to see more added into it. Maybe some powerups and faster movement speed

Very nice work. I can't think of what it is missing but I have a gut feeling that with a little extra it could be an addicting replayable game.

Solid idea! Could use a bit of polishing though.

The player doesn't rotate around itself, but rather around a pivot-point somewhere behind it. This is horrible, as is causing both disorientation and motion sickness.

The music seems "warped". This can be either a)on purpose, in which case just ignore this, or b) because it is set to "3d-sound". A 2d-sound doesn't warp, it's more useful for music.

Sadly, you cannot use external music for the compo. EVERYTHING has to be made by you

nice one. a little ramp up in challenge would have been nice
