I really like this game! First of the graphic style is perfect and the music is great, a mini-map would be useful (unless of course it's meant to be hard to find stuff) other than that great entry!
Foon → Ludum Dare Explorer → LD30 → Smugglers!

Thanks Troy!
A minimap would have been a great idea - wish I had thought of it, but even if I had there probably wouldn't have been time.
Nice game, the overall presentation was really nostalgic. I also think that a minimap would have been pretty useful, but it wasn't impossible to do well without one.
This is what pacman should have been :)
Normally I would have more to say but my only real qualms were the siren sound and the half hour of my life that I will never get back!
Thanks for making my day.
Well designed. Music was nice addition.
Nice game. The police is very persistent, though xD. I never could escape.
That was really fun, and the commitment to the graphical style is impressive. Nice job!
Lots of fun, great entry!
Loved the visual style and music! Great entry!
Really cool, simplistic style. I liked this a lot.
Very enjoyed your game ! Quite good music, loved the pursuits, keep on working !
Simple, but quite good game.
It got a lot easier once I realised what the compass was for.
Nice game.
it took me a while to figure out the compass was a guide rather than some sort of crazy clock.
when the cops(?) give chase I found it prettymuch impossible to shake them.
there“s certainly a game in there though!
Loved your game. One of the best so far. Loved the music and the way the game feels to play.
So hard to avoid enemies >_<
Wow! Thanks so much everybody, I didn't expect this to be this well received - I've never done a game jam or even published a game before.
pinion & Talvara: yeah, I regret not explaining what the compass is for in the instructions. It seemed obvious to me at the time but I realize it's not - maybe putting an "N" at the top of it would also have helped.
Satyre and Talvara: that's what the LShift/Space is for - you'll never ditch them at your normal speed but you can boost to get out of there (though your cash ticks down faster.)
Great work! very fun to drive around and the sound effects were nice :)
Interesting use of the theme. Fun little game!
Ahah, i love this little game, the "minimalist GTA", really enjoy the graphics & the music. Nice !
I love the mechanics, music and graphics! :D The only "but" is that the theme doesn't seems to fit very well, but appart from that, great job! :D
Cool game :)
Good game!
First time I thought that there is no compass but a clock, and took me a while to find a target ;-) Little hard to fit the theme but Funny game!
Hilariously fun! audio and art is charming. :3
I really enjoyed the graphical style of this game. I found the police/red jeeps a bit too hard in the later stages because they were so magnetic, and once they saw you there was no way to get away really. Some kind of "cop radar" would make this a little more forgiving I think. The music was great also. Nice work overall! :)
The mood is great, it really feels like an old game! :3
This is the highest rating I've given a game so far... perfectly executed in every way! I was not only transported to the world of international drug smugglers, but to the world of SVGA and soundblaster16 cards. Played it for ages. I feel like there could have been a tree or two in the "jungle" (I thought I started in the city!) and it seems unfair that the cops chase you even before you've picked up any drugs: I was just going for a casual drive through the jungle, after all!
Fantastic game, anyhoo. That tune will be in my head all day.
Colors, sounds and the ruthlessness of the cops remind me of the games I used to play a lot of time ago. Great game!
