Nice game, I enjoyed racing agaist top racers (really top racers, I couldn't get past 5 pos). Some balancing should be made to the solar spots - for the first moment thought they are bugged, the restored power was too low. Wall colliders felt a bit clunky, I often ended up rotated backwards. Maybe making it multiplayer could help the game. Steering was really enjoable and skillful.

A fun game with pretty good, albeit a wee bit skiddy, controls. Smoother corners and a wider track would help a lot with keeping the player from crashing as much. The AI seemed a little iffy, getting stuck often but otherwise a good concept that fits the theme.

Good top down racing game. Would have loved to have some engine sounds. The theme could have been a bit more apparent in the game, takes a long while before you run out of power. Great racing AI implementation! Keep up the good work!

The concept is simple and works.

I had troubles controlling the car (you can't see how are your wheels directed and I guess that is root of the problem), and somewhat the car physics was highly unpredictable.

a top down racer it's awesome! .. car it's kinda hard to control, it needs more tune on the other racer/s IA (only saw one, I'm really bad at this lol), nice entry!

Good start! I included it in my Ludum Dare 39 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tnbJWl_w0c
