Pretty fun and addicting. Nice work!
Survived for 36 glorious seconds! I think this might be seriously among my favorites. Spot on sound effects, excellent visuals, addicting gameplay, the controls feel responsive enough to know it's my fault when I lose, yet frustrating enough to add to the difficulty, and it's really addicting. Great job!
Chasing down the highway trying to escape the cops, thats just like playing what I dream every night! =D
Awesome graphics and car sounds.
Only real complaint is that it kills you way too quickly at the start. You should start closer to the right side of the screen at the beginning (and delay the starting cars).
Add some powerups (that repair you, give you bumpers for knocking cars out of the way for a brief time, etc) and this could be a fun little endurance game.
I've made it around 35 or so!
Though I don't really feel like a villain, this game is quite polished and very fun. I like that it has short rounds - nice balance and depth. For some reason I feel nostalgic playing this.
This is a really well made game. The graphics are great and the audio is great too. And of course it's fun :)
It would be nice if you had to press a button to start, just to avoid being killed right a way when you start up the game.
Yeah, I didn't have time to polish up the intro/start. :( But thanks for playing/rating!
So satisfying forcing buses off the road!
lol I almost said "ProTip: Rename the download file to something like speedrun_by_jmk or something." but then I unarchived the file and was like hahahah
Anyways this game is very good, good graphics, fun, good level of difficulty for a game you are meant to play several times, good audio... basically: GREAT JOB
Only lacking category is theme really. Because you're not that much of a bad guy. Still you took an original approach which is better than a generic game.
Super fun, I like the rectangles for collision debugging :)
But: No police sirens? That's a minus for the mood. And I think on starting the race the cars should be standing and only slowly speed up. I got killed trice before I realized that I should hit space.
I liked this. It's quite simple, but well executed. I liked how getting damaged decreased your acceleration, which eventually destroys you.
- You really should've added a bit of info in-game; at least that you should use space. I had to go back to this page to find out how to start.
- I'm also fan of a menu; at least to make sure the game doesn't start right away.
Other than that a fine first attempt.
Like someone has said before, you should start further to the right.
Impressive entry, loved it!
@Gemberkoekje: Yes, all valid points. I wanted to add a menu and some on-screen instructions, but totally ran out of time. :'(
But thank you all for the comments!
Mate, i want this on my Android phone, do it! :D
Very nice graphic style and very polished game in general.
Not sure why but it seems to be running extremely slowly on my computer. As such I can't really play it correctly. But the sounds, the graphics and the game idea is really cool. Well done on your first entry!

Awesome game, one of my favorites I have played so far. I couldn't stop playing until I beat 42.48
Nice game! It took some time to figure out how to start game before i die)
It's fun, but its very hard.
My best was 46 Seconds. This game is a lot of fun....I was compelled to keep trying and get the best score. It's also nice to see a driving game.
Pretty fun. Should wait for a keypress at first startup and a menu would have been nice as well.
Hehe, great art and nice difficulty curve with good, simple controls.
The first time you play is pretty surprising...
36 secs.
Fun game! I've done 35 secs.
Wow. cool game. A bit difficult at first.
30:56 only. The car's engine audio is awesome. Very challenging (a good thing). Very good pixel art. Fun gameplay. Good job!
OMG - this is super nice, make this thing an iPhone Game, plx!
