All right!
Liked: + City - very cool and good looking! + Camera perspective + Drif effect! + Coolest start menu so far! + Nice 2d art! + Atmothphere of something wrong going on. + Gameplay is intence as it is supposed to be.
Disliked: - Controlls - was unable to turn while standing still... I was cornered a few times by UFOs... Was unable to turn around on the same street... yea I know that IRL vehicles can not turn around if standing sill but some sacrifices have to be made in favour of gameplay. - Did nont figured out how to kill UFOs - but I think it should be fun
Ways to improve: * Make your city more alive! Screaing citizens / cars running away from UFOs would be so much fun! * A bit more controls/responsivness polishing. * A bit more extended tutorial would be nice
Damn! I had fun playing your game! Thanks!
I love the graphics, and the way they are presented. It was an unusual decision to use flat sprites and then have the camera at an angle, but I really like the aesthetic it produces. The audio is what really hammers the mood home. It reminded me of old Simpsons episodes where Kang and Kodos would turn up. The gameplay is simplistic, but more than enough for a jam game. The premise fits the theme pretty well. I ended up having quite a few goes.
Good stuff :8ball:
Really great game!!!! Love how you can get upgrades, and how there are alley ways through buildings!
I loved the graphics, and driving was pretty fun even for the problems with turning, and the gameplay was mostly enjoyable great job guys!

This is a fun and simple little game idea. The game has some great music and a very funny atmosphere. Overall is this good jam game. Well done.
This was a cool game! I got a bit frustrated when I got cornered by an alien, stuck to the wall, and I couldn't move forwards or backwards at all, so I was just... stuck. And another one showed up and joined in on the stuckedness, and then I just had to wait out my timer until my brain exploded. THAT BEING SAID, A+ aesthetic. Got some Escape from New York vibes or something going on.

Man this was a great game! The audio was on-point, catchy music and very excitable. I really enjoyed it! The collision detection was a bit frustrating as I'd get caught on random things all the time when trying to drive/navigate to the arrow. But otherwise it was a lot of fun! I really liked the look of the menu too. Great job!
I liked the graphics and the 2d art. The audio was well suited to mood. My only complaint is the controls. I found them to misbehave every once and a while, I expect its my keyboard.

The intro is really funny (and that it's a parody of the US president giving instructions as tweets is just clever.) I had a difficult time with the controls (the turning radius on vehicles felt really wide, and changing direction seemed to require stopping, lifting off the button, and then pressing it again (often multiple times, though that might have been me doing it too soon.) That, while racing a clock, is not a great combination.
There's a lot to like, though - you all did a lot with a little to make the city feel large and detailed, and even though their behavior was about the same, it was really satisfying to unlock bigger and better vehicles. And the 50's aliens sound effects were cute. :)
Solid game! I managed to get 6 after a few tries, great submission.
Wow! I'm impressed for real! The aesthetic gives me such old-school vibes, I love it! The controls feel fantastic and this game feels less empty than other games due to the music and sound effects! Thanks for making this game and I hope to see you in the next jam!

I like the music and aesthetic. The trump tweets are great. Some of the collisions need a bit of work as they don't always line up with the graphics. The 3D art is simplistic but it does the job. The 2D sprite of trump needs to be commended. Overall a very good entry.
The graphics remind me of the old GTA games, despite the description telling me I'm supposed to kill the aliens, I didn't find a way to do that, doing deliveries was a frantic race against the clock! Not sure if there's a win state, or if there's a set amount of deliveries to make. I got to 9 deliveries.

So fun game :D I was enjoying the control of the yellow car with little drifts! The music and graphics very cool! Maybe for the future of the development : - Put more different aliens with different behaviours - Put civilians trying escaped the aliens - Changle the behaviour of the character vehicle when we hit a wall (the contact is too sticky and a little bit frustrating).
Very nice work guys, congrat!
Really cool game! So good art style and music, plus the gameplay is so smooth. Just the phyisics against the objects are a bit weird, you get stuck really easy, and some obejcts looks like they are not blocking but they actually are( It happened to me with the fountain of the park, I thought I could pass through it XDD) But for the rest its really good, nice job!

This was awesome! I had tons of fun, like dang! My biggest issue was this slight stick when you switch back from reverse to forwards, it takes an extra keypress and is a little annoying, but that's super minor. Some of the car upgrades were difficult to control, like the one with crazy drifting, but I think that's part of what makes it so enjoyable. I also think you did very well with the graphics and the camera control. Fantastic work all around!

Very interesting ! The art was great, altough the flat ships and character were a little bit odd. Like said by other people, the tentacle ufo chasing you made be being stuck a lot of times, during which I couldn't move. I didn't manage to kill aliens though. The starting menu is very cool and its art too. The music fits the game very well and the siunds too. The maniability is not so gret I think, it was impossible to turn carefully late game. I don't think there is an end, or I havn't found it. The president's tweets were very funny, #dejavu,#thans capitalism and such. Congratulations !
The city perspective was really a strong point, it's nice to have taken the time to add small details such as basketball squares etc.
I will go a bit in the opposite direction as some previous comment, I think the maniability is good, and I believe it should be worse. The issue is more with the collisions which are very punishing, and the deadlock you can have with some aliens. So if you combine more speed and less control with forgiving collision it could increase the fun of cruising through the city.
My most enjoyable playthrough was when I was able to pile up some upgrades and achieve speed that became hard to control.
The aliens were trolly and sometimes surprising, and it's nice to play a game without any bug or discrepancy.
Cool entry.

This is a very fun game, got upto 7 deliveries. Though sometimes aliens just lock you inplace and you cant do anything, not sure if there is anyway to destroy them
I loved the 2D meets 3D perspective here, reminds me of old school GTA. The drifting around once you got vehicle upgrades was awesome, I love the tire marks it leaves behind, it's a nice detail. I could never figure out how you can kill the aliens, so mostly tried to avoid them, but I found that if you stopped moving it was really hard to build your speed back up, so when one of the big aliens got you I just died because I couldn't get away and they would just corner me. All in all a really solid game that just needs a few tweaks to be even better. Great work!

It was a pleasure to play. 14 is a record, but I did not try hard. Good luck in your development!
