It amused me for a minute or so ;) It looks very nice for a first attempt. Hopefully good luck next time!

It's a funny little game, the AI pathing seems to work quite well, maybe after the Ludum dare you can expand off this.
Nifty little AI running. I could use this as a screensaver!
Aw, was expecting cars to start crashing around. Hope you are more successful next time.
It's an interesting little system, it's nifty but I left it running for a while and they started off roading! Crazy drivers!
Interesting to watch, grats on your first Ludum Dare and getting something out there :)
It is nice you give it a try at ludum dare. Add tapping to destroy each car and you can have a playable game.
It actually was pretty amusing for the first little while. I think this would make a great screen saver.
One improvement I would make is making it so that the cars actually avoid each other. It was cool as it was, but the thing I like the most about watching real life traffic patterns is seeing how thousands of cars flow in and out, but not a single one hits another (at least usually). I hope you keep working on this though, it's cool!
Thanks for all the comments! I actually spent most of Sunday trying to get cars to not hit each other (with success, actually), but wasn't able to get the cars coming on from the on-ramps to predict when there would be a gap for them to fit into. I am hoping to refactor the code and finish the "game" itself at some point soon. If I do I will post a link to the post-compo version.
Seems like russia. When people crash, they just keep going.
I love that no cars ever leave. I've just been watching it for a while now. Actually, when I tabbed back over, everyone had stopped a few trucks were in the grass :) Keep workin on it!
I love the idea of exploring interesting AI and sharing that with other developers. Best of luck to your future entries, I hope they continue to have neat AI.
Funny :) Its a nice start for a simcity-like traffic engine :D COngrats for the first dare :D
Very cool to watch! Too bad you didn't finished in time :(
really nice work
