Cool game, especially sounds and graphics. I really like it!)

I really enjoy the graphics. The gameplay is fun and hectic, but still manages to be intuitive and fun. The sounds are topnotch too! Great job. Really proud of you for finishing <3

I like this quite a bit, good graphics and sound, overall just a short fun game. I didn't read the full description so I thought getting to 100% for speed was the goal, I felt bamboozled. Good work

I got a virus alert from exe. but other than that it's very cool game!

Great little game. I reached a score of 19507! Thanks for sharing this game. There is a small bug: When I resize the window, I can see the grey borders.

Cool game! Color palette is wondwerful. We made a rocket launch game too!! Should check it out :))

Simple but very polished game. Nice job!

its kind of fun trying to balance the speed of the rocket and i like the sprites, despite being simple i think its pretty nice for a first game jam

Really enjoyed the spritework. Game was fairly fun and the controls felt pretty polished

A simple concept but really well done execution. The spritework really sells it! It's also rad how this turns the typical 'runner' genre on its head by having you *want* to slow down, rather than constantly speed up. Keeping that balance is fun. Nice work!

I like humor ant style of this game.

hobzone 2021-10-06 18:27

Really cool character and art. Enjoyed the game a lot !

Cute little game,the colors are perfect and the art solid. I think a groovy/driving soundtrack would give it even more goblin adrenalin.

Could be cool on mobile with a few more features.

so, you try to avoid the barricades, but then you need to hit them? this is pretty nice

balduin 2021-10-08 16:20

The art is really good and the gameplay is simple but fun.

Thank you to everyone who's played my game!

@devundead good catch, I just uploaded a new version that should account for resizing of the game window

@neeko69 Yeah it seems to happen on only some people's computers. Apparently it's an issue with how Godot compiles executables... I've been talking with some other devs that use Godot and haven't found a simple solution to this issue yet. Fairly annoying

Hehehhehehe. Nice use of the theme, and like others have said good work on the visual style and sound effects.

Regarding the virus thing with Godot Windows releases - I don't include the pck inside of the executable because of that very reason.

Haha, very cute game, loved the goblin and their rocket! Also liked the mechanic of exploding when you get too fast, nice balancing act.

skyward4d 2021-10-12 10:26

Really simple idea, but great execution. The art and the audio are fantastic and cohesive which makes for a really nice experience. The controls are intuitive (Although I thought getting 100% speed was a good thing on my first run) and it was engaging having to manage risk/reward by going faster to score more points while risking not finding a barricade in time and self-destructing. It does get a bit repetitive after a while with so few mechanics, but overall really fun game. Nice work.

frozedon 2021-10-16 03:50

Fun little game. Got to 16,231 points. The management of avoiding barricades, but also hitting them to avoid going too fast was engaging!

pandore 2021-10-17 10:24

Simple yet fun :) The fact that you need to keep an eye on your speed jauge while dodging is pretty fun. Just wondering, at some point I exploded with only 88% on my speed jauge... Was it intended ?
