I really enjoyed playing, but the one issue I had is that the camera angle is at points a little awkward, and so sometimes it was a little difficult to judge whether or not I was safe to change lanes, great game, though!

Very neat runner game. I didn't find any problems with the camera angle, but the start was a bit slow as I had a long time to run without any cars, I think that could be remedied really easily though. Perhaps some simple midi-track to accompany it and some small sound effects when changing tracks and it'll be a full package~ Really nice work on it! :)
Pretty good running game. Always nice to see 3d games in the jam
I agree that it is difficult to judge when it is safe to change lanes. Sometimes the gap is quite small and if you are a frame too early it's instant game over, which is quite rough since the track is very long :D
Some sounds would also help a lot, I think. But other than that, pretty neat and complete game, good stuff!
I can see where the comment about the camera angle comes from, I found myself running into the trailing edges of cars quite a few times before i figured out when to time the lane change. Nothing I'd be overly concerned with though. The Trucks had a bit of leeway if you ran into their trailing edges, maybe that would have felt a bit less punishing for a relatively small mistake in timing.
Besides that I would agree with SvenErik, fun runner game that definitely wasn't too easy. Runup time could be slightly reduced, but I don't think it was a big issue. Gave me a bit of time to plan which lane to focus on at the start.
Very enjoyable!
The web version worked really well, would have been great if there were more levels!
cute subway-surfers-type game! small and simple, I like it!
This was neat. It would be cool to have something to pick up along the way. Had fun!
Neat little jam game! Would be nice to have some sounds. Found it a little frustrating trying to judge when it was safe to change lanes.. would be better if the progress indicator was at the top of the screen I think.. found it a bit obstructive at the bottom. Thanks for sharing!
This was nice and simple, very easy to play and it did one thing I enjoyed that I don't see often in runner games at all: you can dodge between cars where the corners are near! It adds a nice risk taking option. The other? You you can swap back to the lane you just swapped away from mid-transition meaning you don't have to commit to a choice.
If you were to work on it a little more, I'd love to see a points system that ticks up based on how long you've been running and how many obstacles you pass with near misses giving bonus points. Good game as is though, I had fun!
Good game, I liked your models. Could do with a little sound/music and maybe some scenery at the side of the roads. Good job!
