i love the sound effects in this one! they're so cute, and the game is really fun and smooth to play too. jumping over cars is also fun. good job!

httpsterio 2022-10-03 14:37

Very solid game. Love the visual aesthetics and the game play idea as well! Random game modifiers are always fun. I think I ended up with a combo of modifiers that made it impossible to survive haha. Great game!

jaybaus 2022-10-03 14:44

I didn't read the description before playing so was pleasantly surprised at the twist of having different effects added each round, it makes each playthrough feel unique and keeps it feeling challenging and fresh. The audio and graphics are fun too. I didn't realise you had to jump to choose a card for a while or that points are awarded for narrowly missing cars, I still had fun playing it though :) Nice job!

ugly-robot 2022-10-03 15:33

Really cute and fun game! Played it for quite a bit - love the little player's choice in how to increase the difficulty. Great job with the audio and styling as well - the limited color palette really pops and gives the game a very distinct flavor. The realization that cars can come 'off' the lanes and slide about - a wonderful moment. Also, can I say, when you die and your little flat boy just gets repeatedly run over - disturbing, but very funny!

zl17 2022-10-03 15:35

The card options allow for each game to be unique. Nice colour scheme, maybe the assets could have matched styles. Overall a fun game!

cptplastic 2022-10-03 16:18

It took me a bit to figure out the card part but this is fun. Good Job

tinybuttybutt 2022-10-03 17:08

Duck approves game. Duck laugh at funny sound design. Duck is impress by integration of upgrade to make game harder. Duck like the art design. good game P.S: Never take speed limit!

alex-covert 2022-10-03 17:09

Pretty cool! I've been enjoying the games like this where difficulty slightly increases every ten seconds, it lets you get a grasp on the game before things get too crazy. I was a little confused about how to select the cards but got it after a round or two, interesting selection!

untitled-studios 2022-10-03 17:14

Super rad!! The upgrade mechanic plays on risk-reward in a really fun way. This game is really well-designed, as as a result ends up feeling like much more than the sum of it's parts (which are great on their own as well).

eerongal 2022-10-03 17:38

Fun little game. The upgrades definitely add something to it, still a little rough around the edges but all in all pretty solid! Nice job!

hotaloca 2022-10-03 18:23

Quite fun. I especially like the Wanted card - that was really cool. I also like the idea of making the map more difficult by card selection; and how the combo can give something weird (like jam+wanted). On the audio the music and car sound were too silent was the card selection/die sounds. Otherwise really cool! :)

dreamscale 2022-10-03 18:26

Really fun game! There's a good variety of modifiers and they interact with each other well.

ale 2022-10-03 18:50

Summary of my first play through:

* "hey cool, an upgrade" * "oh, it's not for me..." * proceeds to get splattered

Overall a fun concept, and those sound effects definitely improve the experience.

slush 2022-10-03 19:24

Love the way the game scales with the ten second theme, well done!

pinnyo 2022-10-03 19:51

At first I thought I wanted the controls to be a bit more snappy then after a minute it started to feel okay. I think I'd still prefer the controls a bit more snappy / less floaty, otherwise I actually started to quite enjoy the game, especially after getting the wanted modifier!

sirdorius 2022-10-03 19:53

Haha, I laughed hard playing this, definitely great humor! And I like how the wonky physics of the cars make things unpredictable. Good work!

magus77 2022-10-03 20:30

haaaa very fun game, properly enjoyed this one. BEEPBEEP the sounds are supercute :D the powerups kept me wondering what it would do and i loved trying them out. BEEPBEEP +1 . nice submision and i hope to see more of you in the next LD's

rinkuji 2022-10-03 21:29

Very beepbeep %) I really enjoyed it the game is fun. Great job ^^

kingofnova 2022-10-03 21:30

wasnt sure if i was meant to dodge the boxes or not other than that fun.

thatanonoword 2022-10-03 21:31

It's an interesting game! The gameplay is simple but fun, and there's a lot of challenge and options to it! Maybe more options for traffic modifiers would be really cool.

unpronounceable 2022-10-03 22:54

Fun little game. Liked the choice between what sort of pain you want with the upgrades. Did notice that some of the combinations are extremely difficult, mainly getting Jam and Delivery creating a wall of trucks that I was unable to find a way to dodge.

tengusheath 2022-10-03 23:11

Pretty fun game

bit-flipz 2022-10-03 23:31

I really like this one. Very simple mechanics to understand and it is great experiencing how the various combinations of upgrades change the game.

david-hampson 2022-10-03 23:35

Awesome game! I like the sound design

kepsert 2022-10-04 00:04

Very enjoyable game! I LOVED the little sound effects haha. Controls were very responsive and the gameplay was simple, yet addicting. Interesting upgrades too, "WANTED" felt overpowered though hehe

she-wrote 2022-10-04 00:39

The game is fun, and the sound is great. Good job.

olddog 2022-10-04 01:25

So cute game, and the random stuffs design very nice ,Spent me many time on this game,,,but some sounds and feedback are need to add ,,nice work man

kankje 2022-10-04 01:59

Beep :)

birdy-games 2022-10-04 02:35

Simple but funny game. I love the sound effects. it's easy to get hooked. Congrats!

aes1 2022-10-04 02:40

Good well rounded game, with interesting mechanics and audio. Well done :)

theseusinabottle 2022-10-04 03:23

Everything was going so well until I got listed as wanted criminal lol. For real though this definitely started out a little slow for my taste but when it got going it got going and was great fun.

paul-avallone 2022-10-04 04:38

Great use of theme. I love choosing the modifiers and seeing how different combos will work together. For an expansion it would be nice to have different types of vehicles worth different amount of points. Also music would be a nice edition. Fun game. Great job!

wavertron 2022-10-04 04:57

Jam + Wanted + Delivery = Death :smile:

vphyre 2022-10-04 05:00

Wow! It's probably the best game I've played so far in this gamejam. The graphics are wonderful, the gameplay is very good, and the controls are user-friendly. The sound is good too. Good job!

chitoyuu 2022-10-04 05:31

I like the beep beeps and VROOOOOMs. Nice game!

chakit 2022-10-04 05:35

Overall I liked the idea.. can do many things with the idea..:)

savorytoast 2022-10-04 05:51

Very funny sound design and smooth gameplay! The only thing bothering me was the obvious mip-mapping on the tracks.

jaker 2022-10-04 06:04

Fun game! There are some evil modifier combos, like jam + delivery. I foolishly took that combo twice and subsequently lost to the wave of trucks that came.

cowgummiboy 2022-10-04 06:32

Really fun concept, the combination of 2D and 3D graphics is really cool in my oppinion. I think it would have been cool if there were more variation son Cars and they would have given a different amount of Points

saxops1 2022-10-04 07:19

Hahaha the audio is amazing :D

elmoeinstein 2022-10-04 08:09

Very interesting

maxi-ruffo 2022-10-04 08:14

whaat! i love this game!! the choice of a penalty makes it super fun visually! the sounds are incredible... each and every one is great and I loved losing and continuing to hear the voices of pain of my character when he kept being stepped on... what a great humor haha

phillip-scott 2022-10-04 09:31

This game was super fun, the audio was a highlight and the fact that it subverts your expectations and the round choices stack - Well done!

nilolo 2022-10-04 10:15

haha cute sound effects and love the crazy situations that arise and the collisions. Nice job! Also like this idea of "anti-upgrades" you choose.

nalquas 2022-10-04 10:44

Incredibly fun. I love the "beep" sound effect, and the "upgrades" you can select every 10 seconds highly increase replayability.

gangrue 2022-10-04 11:05

Cute and addicting. Awesome game and idea. The sound effects add a lot of character to the game. A lot of replayability as well.

honest-dan 2022-10-04 11:31

Hey this was a neat little game. Once I started to see the modifiers I felt it made it a lot more interesting. Jumping seemed the most safe way to get points, but I did like that any form of near miss was rewarded. Makes it not just about surviving, but also about living life on the edge. Adds replayability.

dnich013 2022-10-04 12:22

Lol this is a brilliant game and made me laugh quite a bit! Bet you had fun making the sound effects :D I love the idea of having to choose modifiers that are going to make it more difficult!

osh-studio 2022-10-04 12:30

Really fun game, I liked how you only got points for jumping over the cars but they were also the thing that kills you. A good double edged blade mechanic. Good entry :)

eager 2022-10-04 12:49

Fun and easy to play I got 87 haha

nicorm 2022-10-04 13:04

Great game, I do believe is one of the best contestants for the jam, you guys did a really good job! If you would like check our game!

nyxkn 2022-10-04 13:31

Very simple but quite effective! I thought difficulty went up very quickly and I was soon swarmed by a full-screen of cars :D Nice fit with the theme. Music got quite repetitive. Overall quite a fun game!

mrmaico 2022-10-04 14:38

I have a problem with the size of the game. It's too big, so I can't see the full game. What I was able to see was pretty cool. Enjoyed the simple controls and the "Jam" upgrade was pretty funny. Love some "random" upgrade choices.

charzy 2022-10-04 15:08

Extremely fun! I spent the entire time laughing

charzy 2022-10-04 15:08

Extremely fun! I spent the entire time laughing

yogurtthehorse 2022-10-04 15:57

It was super fun, especially sfx :D

retrisma 2022-10-04 16:58

Very fun game that kept my attention with the funny and interesting upgrade combinations. Don't pick both "Jam" and "Delivery" :]

urjarm 2022-10-04 18:02

Fun game with a great idea for implementing the theme. I enjoyed the hand-made (mouth-made) sound effects and the simple and catchy music. I just wished one round would be a little longer, as I often died within one or two minutes. Although this might be due to my low skill. ^^ But with a little more polishing, I can imagine this game being really good!

motti 2022-10-04 18:07

Nice game! with some more work it has potencial to be an adictive game! check out jam game!

wolderado 2022-10-04 18:14

Super fun :smile: I really like how the game plays when you get wanted upgrade so I always take that one :smile:

helzinko 2022-10-04 19:24

Simple game but so fun! Spend way more time playing this than expected

liii22 2022-10-04 20:01

Simple idea, but really fun to play! Plus for colors. And noises on death, amazing :D

moasip 2022-10-04 21:44

I had a lot of fun playing this. The modifiers were a nice touch. The sound effects were also good.

spacefudge 2022-10-04 22:04

As simple as a roguelite can get, controls could use work. The audio scared me looool and is pretty funny

alex-de-la-cour 2022-10-04 22:55

I thought the controls, especially the jump, were smooth and responsive, and I laughed at the little death sprite every time I died! I also like how the new cards stack on top of each other - it got pretty hectic after a while! Simple but fun and addictive.

msplanlos 2022-10-05 00:08

Very simple game idea but well executed! (: Loved the little "beep beep" sounds.

federico-delgado 2022-10-05 01:57

Simple idea but it works so well, i got scared by one of the sounds hahaha, well done!

anniv4x 2022-10-05 02:56

I really loved how creative the upgrades were! I was very curious to try them.. Fun game!

wazce 2022-10-05 05:17

Simple and sweet. Good implementation. The web player ran a little slowly for me so it was hard to time the jumping over the cars. Loved the voiced sound effects.

fattori 2022-10-05 06:36

hahaha what a blast, the simple graphics was done to perfection, nice color scheme, and funny vibe all around, sound design was top notch, and when I unlocked wanted and also had a sea of cars on screen the game completely changed to even better hahaha.

ludovicapiro 2022-10-05 07:21

The sound effects are very funny. I really liked discovering the different upgrades. It would have been nice to have more visual feedback when I clicked on them, but otherwise, it's great! Great job!

linktail 2022-10-05 08:07

Good Game. But a little hard.

firellon 2022-10-05 09:00

Actually, liked this one. It's simple, might be a bit bonkers, but it is fun - for a bit.

And 10 seconds levelling... somehow reminded of VS (yet again on this LD).

davirtuoso 2022-10-05 15:05

I had a lot of fun playing this one - the strategy of chosing cards is nice and you can quickly end up in hot water with the wrong combo. Great job, this is a really nice jam game

asue 2022-10-05 15:48

The sounds effects are incredible x) Very nice concept, I think it could make a good mobile game! The most fun game I've played so far.

clonze 2022-10-05 17:55

Great Idea for a game! I got 105

rawb 2022-10-05 19:19

Really fun game. You had a nice intro to the mechanics that were easy and understandable. So when I started really getting into the harder stuff it was very clear what I needed to do and it was just a matter of skill. Nice job!

jusw85 2022-10-05 20:02

It's a good entry! I would've loved to be able to control with arrows keys + space, or WSAD + j/k/l, since right now movement and jumping is on the same hand which makes it a little harder.

cayurr 2022-10-05 21:36

Fun game! Thought I had found a sweet spot to stay safe, but then I unlocked trucks and everything went downhill from there haha. Gets really chaotic and fun once there's so much on screen and vehicals start hitting into eachother moving them in different directions. Great job!

kimau 2022-10-05 22:23

Beep Bepp Blergh. Fun idea

4ahizon 2022-10-05 23:05

I enjoyed the game. Especially with the buffs every 10s changing which gave the game a challenging experience. I would suggest improving on background music and tightening the controls

waffleworksgames 2022-10-06 02:39

Fun, simple game! The sound effects were hilarious, and the modifiers were pretty neat too

william-baker 2022-10-06 02:44

really interesting

anne-nichols 2022-10-06 02:56

Definitely thought the cards were upgrades. Was sorely disappointed (and splatted!) Loved the humor in this concept - the "getting run over" noises were oddly delightful.

jag 2022-10-06 05:51

Incredibly fun game! I looove the sound effects they were so funny! Great work with programming the AI for the cars, it was hilarious to see them chasing you.

matt-ravenhall 2022-10-06 11:00

The sound effects are brilliant and the game is solid, great job!

koningmathijs 2022-10-06 12:15

I love how simple the idea is, but how engaged I am while playing it. A great take on the theme with a lovely amount of polish and personality. Well done! :D

haotian-chen 2022-10-06 15:13

at first i thought it was too easy, but when they stat to chasing me... solid gameplay, solid idea, definitely a nice game.

iradchenua 2022-10-06 16:06

Nice game, It's very interesting that mechanics changes by mixing. For example wanted + speed is not what is just wanted. Also I feel that my display is shifted to right. I like the idea. With a little bit polish it could be nice mobile game! I can suggest to add more interaction with music. I mean beat handling but still I don't know how to deal with upgrades in that case. Good luck!

martinboue 2022-10-06 17:31

Great game, it's simple and working perfectly. I love the fact that you can choose malus by jumping, it's simple to handle.

faust-mi 2022-10-06 18:33

Really cute and fun game! Reminds me of сamagedon, but from the side of the pedestrian)

coolgunxdd 2022-10-06 18:38

Nice game! Well done

alks 2022-10-06 19:27

Good work! Such a fun and simple game made really well! Graphics look good and the colour palette is great! Love it!

juanrod707 2022-10-06 20:11

Super fun game, gets very addictive. Great sound, functional graphics, the difficulty system is amazing. 5/5!

Beep

runicpixels 2022-10-06 21:58

Nice game. It really makes you think about how time intervals are used in games.

cassowary 2022-10-07 06:24

hahaha, I love this! the random upgrades were great especially when the cars start launching off each other and going every which way.

The graphics are pretty simple but work well. The color scheme is solid and I like the jiggly main character :>

lorwon 2022-10-07 08:30

Nice game, the fact that you had to avoid cars to have points is cool.

roroto-sic 2022-10-07 08:40

funny addictive game ! each death want me to retry to beat my score!

here is my best score 49 :

Capture d’écran 2022-10-07 103507.jpg

apostle 2022-10-07 10:46

Nice one, graphic are pretty simple, but it has some charm in it. Jam modifier is amazing!!

chartle 2022-10-08 02:44

Very fun to play, loved the addition of having to get close. I think you put in enough ways to force the player out of being in between two lanes that it ended up fine, I was a little afraid that you could just stand in the middle and win. Sounds were funny but got pretty annoying after a while. I think you could probably add some text explaining each option, as it was I'm not sure if I was getting the speedup or the cars. Solid game in the time you had!

tommy 2022-10-08 21:42

Nice game! Love the simple graphics and the SFXs of the cars speeding by. I'm just a bit confused by some of the modifiers (e.g., the size), and by the fact that some of them seem to help you while others make the game only more difficult. Not sure if this is intentional or not :D

euler-moises 2022-10-09 03:16

simple...

But challenging!

Congratulations for the game.

dgo 2022-10-09 05:23

Haha thats a lot of fun, simple concept and great execution!

ruruie 2022-10-09 19:53

Lots of fun. Simple but slick and the death noises are fantastic.

bobo-oh 2022-10-10 08:41

Nice game! Congrats!

sephowepho 2022-10-10 22:34

Great job for your first submission! I didn't get too far in my few attempts, but I enjoyed playing through it (:smile:)! I hope you continue on your game-dev journey! Keep it up! :clap:

kalendhos 2022-10-11 23:57

OK it's so fun, I love it ! Fun to play and I laught.

But I have one gameplay default and one technical issue.

Sometimes, during a few seconds, I can't make points. I don't know why/when the bug begins.

And I think "Delivery" is simply too violent. OK, maybe only for the ones who tryhard, it's POSSIBLE. But you can't prove it.

EDIT : Oh, and maybe when a car jump from the start directly on my head. But not really an anomaly. ^^'

For now, my favorite game. That deserves a little tryhard. ^^

2022-10-12 01_54_05.png

itooh 2022-10-12 21:18

It's easy to get addicted to this game!^^ Discovering the different combinations of modifiers is really fun. Congratulation for making so many of them! The game mechanic itself is very basic, but really efficient. Maybe there could be improvement made on the visuals and FX, but as it is the game is readable and has enough feedback. I enjoyed playing this small game. Well done!

ryan-dotsikas 2022-10-13 19:13

Awesome job! I love the idea of trying to dodge traffic but having to get as close to them as possible to actually get points! All the modifiers were clever and a lot of fun too. It felt initially like jumping over cars were just the best way to do it, until I get JAM and then I could just stand still and get 2 points every wave, and then WANTED let me just stand still and jump periodically. It would've been fun to have different number of points for different things like staying on the ground but being very close is worth more than jumping over, etc. But man this was a lot of fun, really great job!

captandrey 2022-10-14 13:42

➕ simple and fun

➕ every run is a little different

➖ black of information about what some bonuses do

➖ sometimes it became completely impossible to dodge

skyward4d 2022-10-14 20:52

Fun game, sound effects were hilarious! Loved the little "Beep" noise the cars make.

justking144 2022-10-14 21:31

Lack of upgrade information made it a bit unclear about what to do even a few runs in, but the gameplay was a lot of fun and I liked the aesthetic, especially when getting hit by traffic

screen size was a bit weird

alex-mcgrath 2022-10-20 16:27

This is stupid fun. I love the concept of permanent upgrades (downgrades?) and the sound effects in this are just hilarious. Really well rounded and a good fun time! Will definitely keep playing to see what happens with just an insane combination of chosen powerups!

dzolkin 2022-10-21 05:27

The maximum I scored was 31 points. I really liked the implementation in the topic, I brought the "cars" to the point of absurdity by increasing their size 4 times, you can earn score by jump. The animation of death is very cool, I liked it when you get knocked down after that you are still finished off by other cars.:thumbsup:

vivyhasadream 2022-10-21 16:50

hilarious audio!
