beautiful game!

Really enjoyed the gameplay! The audio tracks also being modifiers is a great touch! Found it pretty fun even though I don't know what it has in common with the theme "Unstable"

Хорошая игра! Было забавно крутиться на машинке.

This is sweet. I love the bright colors in the assets! The change in perspective when you speed up feels really cool, but kind of hurts my head after a while lol.

Great job with your game. It seemed like it maybe had some procedural levels or possibly a random selection of levels which is cool. The perspective for me made it a bit hard to navigate at times. I would have preferred seeing from down one axis. Difficultly seemed to ramp up quite a bit which made it hard to progress past a certain point. I am sure a lot of hard work went into this game so you guys should be proud! Overall I liked it, feels like a game someone could get addicted to.

This game has an awesome vibe. This camera perspective is interesting.

The driving overall is pretty smooth and when you get to just run into a ramp at full speed and yet yourself above everything it's super satisfying, but in a couple of my runs the road just started absolutely packed so my best guess was just taking the very middle of the road and just take down whatever unlucky cop happened to be there to reduce the damage to my car. I was missing maybe a timer or a high score to compare runs and keep trying to do better. I didn't know how to parse the ranks that I was being given but they were funny :v Aesthetic and all the audio tracks are real nice, too. Had a chill miami vice to it all.

Nice game. Quite fun, though it lacks any goal or end score, and smashing into things *could* have been made a bit more satisfying... :)

Oh, and the exit button doesn't work. (at least not for me)

This was fun. It was a good challenge, as I never made it more than 30 seconds. Also, are some of the cars driving backwards?

Liked the gameplay, graphics, and audio. I think it would work better with a more standard camera angle, though; just too hard to see well from the current one, so you spend more time trying to figure out where you are than dodging/planning/etc.

I found the angle of the gameplay a bit confusing. Aiming correctly is very difficult when I can't see properly. Otherwise, the music perks seemed pretty cool. I liked switching to slow motion after boosting up the ramp. Music is great.

I like the music and visuals.

That's a fun game! It mainly lacks of a more juicy sound design (the sounds here lack of impact) and I would have loved a sunset setting for a more driving-in-LA mood! Was fun to drive this car, well done!

gordie-synowiec 2021-10-14 19:02

@solah hey there, thank you for the feedback! i made the music for the jam, i would have loved to make a chill track for a sunset setting! that sounds amazing. we were pressed for time, but i would have put more effort in creating some sounds for hitting objects, revving, etc. next jam we work on will be in January, and i'm going all out! lol
