I really like this design where a racing game is lap-based but doesn't have a start/finish line, and if expanded I think could lead to really interesting arena  design where a player could tactically "skip" parts of a lap to return to later. The controls were indeed a little frustrating but I think are only a couple of minor changes from feeling good- (for me personally, I think being able to turn without forward momentum, and upping the rotational friction, would be all that is needed). I think the randomized obstacles were cool, keeping a racing track fresh with randomized elements is a neat idea!

I liked it once I learned to look at the wheels to see where they are facing. Would have preferred faster steering

The friction and sluggish steering were very frustrating for me. I think that giving the cars a slightly more obvious front and rear would have helped too.

The track progress / scoring system seemed to work pretty well, and at least the AI seemed to be struggling as much as I was.

I managed to get a point, but couldn't muster the willpower to finish a race, sorry!

No need to be sorry -- thanks for giving it a go!

I think this is a very accurate ~~NAS~~TAGCAR racing simulator and I approve. I also think I was drunk and asleep at the wheel.

Rollerderby but its mario kart balloon mode! I liked the concept but i could not get the controls to agree with me. Since they’re racecars i will the controls were more responsive

Controls are a little tough but I like the concept! Chasing down a flag car while avoiding obstacles and other cars is cool.

Struggled with the controls first but got used to it after a while and was a fun challenge to overcome!
Really like the concept.
Didn't manage to get 5 points though, what do you do if the flag and bomb are together?

Developer

Thanks for playing! I hope you had fun.

Unfortunately the flag+bomb combo is game-breaking... I wasn't able to prevent it from occurring before the jam ended. Hopefully it doesn't happen too often :fingers-crossed:
