What a unique take on the theme! I was enjoying just the driving part (originally I couldn't figure out how to see the phone) but once I was able to play both simultaneously it became quite the challenge. Nice models as well!

What a beautiful game ! The interior of the car, the japanese town, these were much more detailed that what I expected to find in a game jam entry ! The car handles very well too, which is great given the amount of multitasking needed to not immediately die in both the driving game and flappy bird.

Overall, a very solid entry with a very original premise and a great execution. Maybe the addition of a simple soundtrack could have completed the great graphics, and I wish the driving timer was longer (but I guess that not everything is doable in 72h...)

Thanks, guys for the comments, we had some problems trying to merge our changes on unity, a lot of cool art and sound was lost in the process. (It's ok, the fun part was made the game with friends and learn about the process) We are going to add this after the Jam. :D wait for updates :D

I loved the gameplay, apparently a simple game but it becomes quite challenging.Details like the collision with the objects and the precision to drive the car caught my attention.

Nicely done. The game is very well polished for a weekend build.

It's too bad I'm terrible at multitasking or I might have been able to get a non-zero score... though that's just my inability, not your game.

From what I saw, I enjoyed the environment. Too bad you weren't able to merge all the other art and sound. That would have been cool to see. An in-game explanation of controls and goals can often be helpful, but since the controls of your game were simple, that wasn't really a problem (though it might have helped find the phone earlier).

Overall, well done. Thanks for sharing this game.

Thanks, @ThePelranthean, Don't put your self so hard, the idea of the game it's be all most impossible do the two thing overall it's wrong to drive and play, and this is two uncombinable things :D thanks for play!

Good job overall ! It took me a lot of time to figure out how to "flappy", maybe the smart phone screen should be visible from the start. The gameplay is quite difficult but also challenging as it is. Fun concept, congratulations !

Thanks, @La mecanique du plastique, It's cool know you appreciate the game, we hade some problem in the end, but We plan this polishment for later.

:D

That's really hard to do both lol but fun to try. The car controls felt....slippery? idk something didn't quite feel right there. Nice entry.

marcius-oliveira 2018-04-25 17:26

@those-30-ninjas , Thanks for your comments, Yep We have hard moments trying pooling the car mechanics, but 48 hours isn't time enough

This game is insane! I mean, flappy bird is hard, but playing it and trying to drive at the same time? The graphics look great for a jam game! The driving part wasn't super clear as to what the objective was, and it was a bit difficult to find the screen to play flappy bird on. Still, well done! https://youtu.be/U15_YlyCNqY?t=14m45s

marcius-oliveira 2018-04-26 00:42

Thanks, @Ben Pearson \o/ really nice review, We trying keep the car mechanics more simple possible, but with some difficulty, but in the end, the result wasn't like we expected, we will make better next time.

Good job guys! It's a really nice take on the theme and well done. The graphics are great and the game is very polished.

Please, take a look at my game too: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/confessional

marcius-oliveira 2018-04-29 01:05

@Rodrigo DenĂºbila Thanks man! love your game, the mood it's great as I say on comments :v:

Wow, your idea is craaaazy. Worst thing is I know people who regularly use their phone while driving...

It took me some time to figure out where to drive to. Also I suck at Flappy Bird. And multitasking. You can figure the results :D Still, a good entry that (theoretically :D) plays well and a powerful commentary on the recklessness of some drivers!

awesomealliterationalliance 2018-05-04 15:38

very nice idea. Was pretty hard to manage two games at the same time (I don't have that problem when I'm doing that irl...just kidding....or am I?!) Anyway, your take on the theme was spot-on and works on multiple levels. Good job!

milo87 2018-05-04 16:43

This is such a great contribution to the theme. It's a shame you didn't ask to get rated on graphics because I thought they were very well done considering the time limits.

+1 for a WebGL support too!

marcius-oliveira 2018-05-04 17:18

Thanks guys for all this feedback, Yep, we notice that figure out the mobile it's hard, the idea when we planing was put the game to start on the mobile, giving the player the option to "press to start" on phone then start the car, but the time was our enemy

ruslana 2018-05-04 21:42

I like the idea. But it could be funnier if had more gameplay. There is no rinish line. Playing flappy bird while driving is hardcore -- and that's the point. And sky is black -__-. So awkward. But anyways, thanks for the experience :)

darkwing00duck 2018-05-05 06:15

An interesting game, an unusual experience to play immediately on two screens. Maybe the screen with the floppy bird is bigger to make it better visible

I would be very glad if [you rating my game](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/last-stand-1) too:mag:

leonlaci 2018-05-05 08:35

This is a really unique take on the theme! But it's really hard (I'm a horrible multitasker :sweat_smile: ), also, I didn't really know where I should be going.

Good job! :smile:

Really fun game, fits very well on this crazy theme. Had a lot of fun trying to go very slow while making some points on the flappy bird.

Good job Guys.
