Oddly enough, this is the first one I've seen about cars! Good job on the art.

This is the post-apocalyptic car-wrecking soul-searching game I always imagined you'd make one day. It's an excellent piece of work from the sunburned aesthetic to the simple controls to satisfying feeling you get when you ram something. You've entered some extremely awesome territory, very cool!

Very fun and the graphics are amazing! Alll da parallaxing!

ilovetojam 2015-08-25 21:29

I found myself playing for about twenty minutes when I only meant to play for about five! Well done!

spotlightor 2015-08-26 02:06

Amazing.!Really fun and great graphics!

galanm 2015-08-26 02:12

So addictive. If it had a scoring system I could see myself playing this for far too much time.

Lovely mad-max-esque game, graphics, sounds and particles are spot on. Smooth easy to pick up gameplay. Alot of fun. Excellent job guys.

nice job and fun to play

bsevers18 2015-08-26 03:12

Fun game, well done! Great presentation

belowzerogames 2015-08-26 03:26

This game was a lot of fun to play, kinda funny at first I just was passing the cars instead of ramming into them :-)

humanatee_studios 2015-08-26 10:07

Simple and addictive, nice job.

peterkirk 2015-08-26 10:09

I love the art style and music.
I kept coming into an issue were the page would scroll down everything I moved.

dantedouglas 2015-08-26 20:17

Due to a large number of issues with the web version, I've removed it (for now). It may return later!

hthomson 2015-08-26 21:54

Fantastic aesthetic, I love the intro screen it has a very cinematic feel to it.

kerdelos 2015-08-26 23:26

Great graphics, the audio is discrete but well done. At first I didn't understood why i was loosing but it was because I did not had anymore fuel. Apart from that the player feedback is good. The only negative thing I encountered is the car physics. Don't get me wrong, it's working and quite good, it's just that it feels a little bit stiff. I don't know if it has to do with having no animation for the car going up or down or if it linked with how the car respond to the input. I just have a feeling that it could more enjoyable. Oh and sometimes there is a long time before another car to hit appear.
Good job !

Some instructions would've been nice, I didn't figure out you have to bump into cars with nitro until my third go.

eddy93 2015-08-27 12:37

I like the style and the gameplay. I only think some scoring system would satisfy me a bit more. Other than that good job!

parahunter 2015-08-27 16:23

Very nice art and sound design. I had to read the comments here before I got you had to destroy the other cars to get fuel so it would be good if you provided some feedback on that. A nice reward sound or something for example.

architect404 2015-08-28 12:36

really nice aesthetic. a couple of bugs I noticed: the music doesn't play on any subsequent runs, you have to relaunch the game. also you can get caught up in an obstacle and taken from full health to none in a split second rather than receiving one hit. I'm not sure how well it fits the theme, and some kind of goal beyond survival would've been nice (even if it's just a high score of how many cars you destroyed), but all in all it's a fun game with a cool aesthetic and I enjoyed it. good effort!

architect404 2015-08-28 12:44

oh, one other thing, sticky keys! maybe shift wasn't the best choice ;)

guoboism 2015-08-29 00:47

Very nice game! Graphics are amazing!

inbetweengames 2015-08-29 06:08

That was furious! Love the vibe, gameplay and style!

dantedouglas 2015-08-29 07:57

Hey all! Thank you so much for all the feedback! For those experiencing audio bugs: The updated build (1.1) on itch.io includes a few small audio fixes.

Understandably, those fixes were submitted well past the LD submission date and you are free to ignore that build if you like- but it's out there if people are interested in playing it with the sound working on consecutive runs, haha

ithildin 2015-08-29 09:52

Great mood! Music was really good, and I loved the colour palette. Gameplay was cool as well, awesome job!!

mrmordem 2015-08-29 10:07

Cool post apocalyptic car game really well done :)

literal_games 2015-08-29 11:31

Cool, seems inspired by Mad Max, which is great! Enjoyed the music too, gave it a nice mood along with the sepia

jupiter_hadley 2015-08-29 17:58

Beautiful graphics, fun game. I included it in part 10 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/Jf2dZyQpNFE

I love the deep parallax background that makes you feel like the desert goes on forever. The big chunky particle effects are great too. I did not know you had to hit the other cars with nitro boosts until I read the other comments here. I was just trying to carefully push them into rocks at normal speed and it was not going well.

sergi-montaner 2015-08-31 19:12

I really like the vibe of this game, It totally captured the wasteland survival thing and the gameplay is simple yet addicting.
Also the color palete fits very well.
I'm working on a game with a similar concept of car crashing, maybe it's interesting for you:

Good job!

WITNESS! Well done-- fantastic vibe.

lukezaz 2015-09-02 04:02

Good little game. Not much to see, but what is there is good. Could do with a few more things to do, though.

nintendo-master 2015-09-02 07:12

Wow! Now this is what I call fun! Not sure what makes it so enjoyable, but I love it! Maybe it is just something about destroying stuff that feels so good. Watching the sun go down really encourages me to play longer, because it gives me the sense that it's doable at the rate it's dropping and to see what happens after it does of course. Excellent job on your game!

drauthius 2015-09-04 20:03

Man, that was a nice game. The rocks were brutal though!

kai20 2015-09-10 17:05

8 bit Mad max. I mean this positive ;)

jantuts 2015-09-14 18:10

Nice Mad-Max-ish game! :D
I'm sorry I couldn't judge audio though, but I can't make noise right now... :/
