Fantastic sounds, funny graphics, abuse of a physics engine, what more could be asked of a Ludum Dare game? This one was a lot of fun and felt like it had a lot of polish. Several small details stood out to me that really tied it all together like the wheels on the car not being round and the slightly unhelpful hinges on the seats in the cars. I think that this was a great interpretation of the theme and it made me laugh a bunch. Well done!
Very cute entry. This game has some great floppy physics going for it and I love how it looks. The honking... THE HONKING! But what do you expect from a bunch of clowns? I enjoyed playing this and had fun shoving the clowns in the car/van and driving with uneven tires.
Love how this feels, like those stick figures are plushy toys. nice work!

great interpretation of the theme, and fun combination of dragging/stacking and driving mechanics. the wobbly wheels are very funny :)

Has a 2010s flash game vibe, very nice! And the tires being not round at all - great idea. :D

Very funny entry. First I tried to take everybody because "I DONT LEAVE MY MEN BEHIND", all who could fit - inside, one on the roof, one on the hood, when the one on the roof fell I felt bad for him but kept going, when the one on the hood fell under the front tires I was kinda worried, but that seemed to work and I had some hope until he fell down into textures xD. P.S. you should change the car service place because whoever made those tires and trunk lock should get fired

@jerem-watts Thank you for these kind words. It made me think and appreciate LD way more. I think it's easy to focus on the ratings too much and get demotivated if they aren't that great, or if the game isn't some miraculous new invention, but really we should all be proud for making any game at all.
The sounds haha, what a fun little game. I just wish that the wheels would be more centered on the axle but whatever XD
Gosh the character is so cute and the idea is so interesting !n
I LOVE CLOWNS!!!!!

super fun to cram everybody in, left me longing for a couple more levels
hearing the honks as my clownmobile sputters around was hilarious

I wish I could give 10 stars for humor! No other game I've played so far as made me actually laugh out loud XD
Hi, it was very fun :)
OMG this was hilarious!!!! I loved the squeaky clown noses as I put them in and moved them around, and the clowns were all so freaking adorable!!! I was sad at first when they fell out but then they looked just as happy so I FLOORED IT every time I was heading to clown college and laughed as they (and the vehicle!) bounced around. 10/10 would play again 🤣

Yesss adorable! Love how bouncy and whacky everything feels. A clown car is a cute application of the theme and I enjoyed stuffing those buggers in there. It would've been fun if there were some clowns to pick up along the way too, maybe you could catch them or something? Anyway great work!
