Super cool game, I really enjoyed the gameplay loop, the graphics where really cool and I liked how you added a Tron-like style to the world, and how you could generate more racetrack based on player choices. The only thing that stuck out to me was how there didn't seem to be anything discouraging the player from driving slower. Otherwise, this is really great!

This game has a very cool vibe, the car controls a bit weird, would have liked controller support. I'd say it is a bit on the punishing side with the roads being so thin. The jumps also would be really nice to hit at full speed but all the jumps I hit you basically need to hit at half speed to avoid bouncing off the track when you land. The music is nice and overall a solid game, great job. P.S. my highest score was 4780.

Hi mate! Had a blast playing your game. It gave a really nice vibe with the design. The commentary was fun too! The music was a bit loud to my liking, but it did not really deter me from enjoying the game. The generation was interesting too. Though some of them I could not get through at all, but that's just a skill issue from my side :) After picking all of the challenges, you can farm the score by simply holding space and w and the game counts it as "drifting" even though you are not moving.

The game has such a nice artstyle! It sets a really awesome mood :)

Unfortunately I had super low FPS. Are there any specifiq requirements to get it running smoothly?

Thank you all for your comments!! It's a pleasure to read you all!

@stmatn I'm sorry for you, I'm using UE5 and I know that the light system is costly. I didn't have the time to add option for quality. For the next gamejam I will create a boiler plate to have settings so at least everyone can play!

@starexplorer Nice bug! XD When I saw your comment I was impressed and then I read it XD. Making a drifting scoring system is hard and to be honest I implemented it today with a very tired mood. Glad you liked the game!

@vrdiy Thanks you! First time using the car engine of unreal engine, it's a hard process and it's full of real engine words that I don't know anything. Wanted an arcade control like Trackmania at start. Normaly controller work but it seem that some don't work well. A friend of me got it working by launching the game throught steam ^^.

@inidal-dev I Agree. Wanted to add a minimum speed that you need to keep up in order to survive (Like the movie Speed) but didn't have the time to make it.

I really enjoyed the art style and music of the game. The controls with an Xbox controller were a bit touchy for my liking, but I'm sure that can be an easy fix with some settings if you decide to expand on it later. It would be really cool if you could summon track segments while in the middle of a track, and maybe if you don't respond fast enough the track just dead ends and you lose? Either way, cool game concept!

The visuals, music and voice over is all really good. The driving felt good. Gameplay was okay, but I would have wished there was more reason to race fast. Overall a well made jam game.

timo654 2024-04-16 18:05

Interesting game, although I kept falling off the stage whenever I tried to go fast. Not sure if there's a way I should be driving to be fast while also staying on the road. Love the vibe.

You are really great! The game turned out great!

Cool game, but sometimes I was annoyed when car was unresponsive, especially on landing

I loved the idea of mixing a racing game and a roguelike? And your take on sumonning was cool (SUMONNING PARTS OF A RACING TRACK?). Like!

caplucky 2024-04-17 15:39

Really fun game also really challengin what made me want to try more! Also loved the aestetics :)

atan 2024-04-22 19:37

The graphics are really cool. I had some issues with physics like teleporting 2 car heights over road on road join but overall it is a really good game.

Visuals look juicy, but can't play since it is windows-only :(
