FINALLY!!! Took me a while but I managed to beat this duck!

Submitted

Fueled by competition I finally beat that damned duck. This game feels pretty polished! I enjoyed the art and sound design :)

Submitted

Very fun! At first it felt impossible to beat the duck, but after a few mode improvements I finally got 'em >:) Great stuff!

Submitted

Love it! I don't know why I was so driven to beat that duck. Incredible ending. Only downside imo is the air level, was the weakest of the 3 to me - the tornadoes seemed too random (some runs barely saw any, some I saw lots), and there isn't a good sense of depth. Still one of the best things from the jam I've seen so far!

Really creative use of the theme! Had a blast racing that feathered rascal.

This was awesome! The journey to defeat that duck seems to parallel life itself. I had so much fun and enjoyed the whole thing.

Submitted

Absolutely adore the aesthetic and gameplay, this is definitely one of my favourite submissions for this jam. Astounding work!


P.S: ending is definitely something

Submitted

Very fun concept indeed! Never knew racing against a duck would be this hard and challenging!

Before the game play: What a cute ducky.

During the game play: You evil duck.

Overall: Very fun game. I love it.

Fun & unique idea for a game. We liked the mechanic shop upgrade menu. The parallax / depth effects were cool & we liked that you changed the sprite art of your vehicles. Nice job!

Submitted

Very fun! I love the fresh gameplay in each race and especially the movement mode during the sky race. The sheer number of sprites and angles/versions of each sprite is super impressive! This is the first game of the jam that's earned 5 stars in every category from me. Well done!

Best game I've played in the jam yet! I was hooked the whole way through.

The attention to detail was really nice, like the mountain getting closer in the race. The different sprites for vehicle upgrades was unexpected, but gave an even weightier feel to your upgrades. And getting better scrap as you go was a great design choice.

But the gameplay twist and also that ending twist!! Writers need to take notes on this.

Finished it! That was a fun ride, man. Fun idea

Fun Game, a fun take on the theme. Improving the race screen graphics, especially the stripey water would take it even further, I think.

Destroying the duck in a race is one of the most fulfilling experiences I have had in my adult life

Really great job and a cute game. I think having the plane be so ridiculously outclassed at the beginning was a little frustrating, but that's the biggest complaint I can manage. It was also fun to see which adjectives would appear next in the MODE acronym, lol.

Also wishlisted your upcoming steam game :)

I do strongly recommend fleshing your itch page out, it might help with retention of the people who arrive there.

Really fun take on the upgrade game genre. I appreciated always having the next goal to look forward to. It kept me invested the whole way through.

Reminds me of the old racing flash games on Newgrounds and other old websites from the 00's. Great job. I had a really fun time. Addictive gameplay!

Submitted(+3)

Super fun game. The gameplay loop was excellent and the story twist at the end was crazy.

Oh wow, this game is so fun! I really love the use of the theme. And that ending!! GAME OF THE YEAR BABYY
