Fun game, I couldn't find the pink hotel though :face_palm:, I even managed to drift the bus. It would be nice if you could knock trees over and they slowed you down, rather than stopping you altogether maybe.

Good Game! Just a little bit hard to find the pink hotel.

I liked the idea of throwing hostages to protect the bus from police cars, the idea and graphics reminds me of TABS. I think sound effects to notify that police cars are approaching would make this fairer experience. Well done!

Interesting take on "delivery" :))) The controls feel a little clunky but overall solid

What an amazing open world for a jam game, definitely price worthy this one.

Pink hotel was difficult to find but overall enjoyable experience

Those poor people went on a rough ride with me at the controls!

LOL this game was so silly and fun. I had soooo many hostages in my car and the cops didn't give a single crap. At one point I got wedged sideways inbetween what I think was the hotel and another building, and I was trying to execute a 100000 point turn and then the cops GOT ME. Poor hostages, lol. The controls for this were super tough but it felt like it was kind of ridiculous on purpose. I loved that the game just started with a guy's head sticking out of the bus. Excellent work.

This game made me laugh out loud every time I ran into something. The sound effects were perfect.

I liked how the controls feel, I agree that they felt a bit off, but I think that adds to the fun of the game. If it controlled perfectly, I think it'd lose a lot of its charm.

I didn't know until I read the controls that I needed to press space to "deliver" the hostages, so I spent a long time just running around with as many hostages as I could hold possible. SO MANY POLICE CARS!

Ended up with a pretty low score of 468, but had I known how to score earlier, I think I would have amassed much more.

Fun game! Great job making it.

I enjoyed Tokyo drifting a bus to techno beats. My computer really struggled with it (my Firefox had an error, Chrome had poor performance). IDK, it might be worth uploading a local build, but it also might just be my computer's fault.

Interesting idea. Really cool game!

Good game, I loved how the poor pedestrians were tossed away when being crashed by a police car. I did not realize about the space key to deliver the hostages until I read the comment above.

Good game! I LOVE that the hostages are also kinda like health bar that every hit taken from police car a hostage will fly away. I also like the controls, it's a little clumsy but gives me the idea of driving a bus. Also the hostages running to the bus feels nice! It's a goofy and funny game, love it!
