Nice music and sound effects! Plus it's a car game! Thumbs up!

Not that unique weapon, but A+ on the humor.

I really liked the humour in this game. I smiled the whole way through it. The visuals might be the weaker part of the game, but they still made their job well. Nice job, I liked this!

Funny little game. Nice work

C64. Outrun. Flashbacks from my childhood. Nice. :)

"This sure does look like outrun!" #thingsinmyhead ... Plays one round of the game and reads text below, sure enough there it is!! I thought I should avoid the birds so I only got 3 kills :) For a real clone there should be the "world map" with splitting levels and a goal at the end... probably something oil related :P

I couldn't play the game embedded on this page (if I try to speed up the web page just scrolls away), but the link works fine.

I love the way you managed to capture the feeling of the wind blowing in your hair... only the coughing, the fumes and the bumpy road makes it a bit less glamorous. A bit. =D

*cough... cough... cough*... I am such a horrible person... *cough... cough... cough*

you made me kill innocent birds. i hope you are happy with yourself.

Bit hard on the birds, no? Funny game, audio is pretty good, though I found the way the birds moved in relation to the road a bit unusual, and I wasn't sure that my accelerating was actually helping me get any closer to the birds. First car game I've played this competition - not sure that a car is all that unconventional a weapon, but hey. Anyway, good work!

Unconventional weapon indeed. Great voice (cough) acting BTW. :-)

Nice music, and fun game! I'm loving the *cough* sounds.
Good work!

Love the game, it reminds me Lotus / Crazy Cars on my Amiga !!

grillaface 2015-04-25 19:55

Haha yeah stupid birds come get some!

hunttis 2015-04-25 19:56

The logic is infallible in the description! Nice work on the road-illusion. Reminded me of outrun!

Cough cough :D

Super graphics style but as a bird, I have some doubts about the mechanics :)

The perspective made me nostalgic for old racing games. Even though the subject matter was kind of gruesome it was kind of pleasant driving in the summer day, to no destination in particular. I appreciated all the particle effects, the smoke and blood. And cute touch with the coughing along with the smoke :) Great job!

Woah. Nice! It's pretty satisfying, to run the birdish thing over. x3

Cough cough cough

Quite a strange game you have.
The idea is interesting and the programmer art is lovely.
I would critic that the gameplay is quite repetitive and the kill sound feels like someone is knoking on the door.
Anyway nice implementation on the old school racing games map.

Really interesting idea!
