The cruise control mechanic is really cool! Loved the fact that you sticked to a realistic gas consumption model!

Controls feel a little too heavy, but good art and good gameplay :) !! Good job!

Nice game guys! love the music especially. It really completes the feel

All your game assets create a cohesive mood that makes for a relaxing driving experience cruising down the long road to somewhere. I will say as someone who know very little about driving I had a hard time figuring out the optimal driving speed LOL because of this I felt like it was never worth it to take the repair option at the station, as the gas timer was always ticking down. Felt like it needed some balancing for me, but I enjoyed my time playing it over anyway. Nice job

Look pretty neat! As for me, if the road is straight anyway, I guess it would be cooler if you had to ride rightwards, not upwards. It would be a better usage of space. And sometimes randomly spawned vehicles are unfair. There's sometimes four of them and they ride with the same speed, and it's impossible to pass them without damage. You can make them ride with different speed maybe, or maybe spawn maximum three at the same spot. But the game is nice and cool! Congrats.

First of all: the art is soo good all-around. Second, the music is very fitting to the game, and the game very well includes the theme. The game is overally well executed. I think it's a cool idea to balance between fuel consuption and fuel. the degrading is exactly balnced in my opinion. The only minor problem I have, is that on the end screen I can still drive the vehicle around, it is being slowed down, but I think it's not drastic enough. Anyways great game, props to everyone who took a part in creating this!

Nice job, overall. The graphics and audio are, to me, the highlight of the game, as both are very pleasing and set a very lovely and relaxed mood (ignoring all the parts where I committed vehicular manslaughter, anyways). The gameplay is simple and nothing super innovative, but is well done, overall. Some of the ways vehicles spawned would cause me to get stuck and basically made it impossible to get through without hitting anyone, though. In addition, the omission of a quit button on the main menu surprised me, considering all the effort went into the main menu. Despite these minor gripes, you guys did a great job. Congrats!

The game looks great, and the music is good. The gameplay idea is overall is pretty simple and fun. I was sadly never able to get very far. Overall a good game.

Nice game. I like it! Driving in the center with the motorcycle felt a little bit overpowered until I crashed into a car :smile:

Good work. Keep it up!

Really nice game. Lovely music and the top down artstyle looks great. I would have liked to see the vehicles actually turning instead of just translating left and right, but building a fully fleshed out driving physics model might be a much for a game jam, so I understand your choices. The other improvement could be making the traffic move at slightly different speeds, at one point I got stuck behind a row of cars, all of them were moving at exactly the same speed, so my only choices were waiting behind them or crashing.

Very nice
