How does your game fit the theme?
There's calm moments when the traffic is still and stormy moments when you need to move through it.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
No, these are the credits.

A promising start. If the cars had some ramps or more cars would spawn and get faster the more you rode the bike, it could have become a cool game :)
Hope that you'll also try mine https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-12/rate/2973690
Fun game. Looks more like a prototype (but that's the goal of game jam after all).
Could had been great to have crossroad, pedestrian and be able to go on the sidewalk :)
Nice and fun gameplay, overall a great job. Good Luck!
I think I have road rage at myself for how I was riding that bike thru traffic. This was fun to bob and weave thru traffic and try to avoid hitting the cars. I found it a bit hard to tell if I'd be able to squeeze thru a gap sometimes. Great job on this I had a good time racing thru traffic!
Simulator of most hated person on the road :D
Fun game! I was riding on the edge but then I fall.
it would be even cooler if you add some ramps or maybe a truck with a slope on the back.
very cool
As bicylemice, we feel we are the ultimate authority on the topic of this game. It is the Dutch Subway Surfer. It has a lot of potential! If you add more elements, it can be a full standalone game! We really enjoyed it and the bicycle controls and collisions felt very smooth. Great work!
The concept is fun, but I also struggled to see how it connects with the theme. I noticed there was no sound, which would have enhanced the atmosphere. That said, the gameplay itself was enjoyable, and the mechanics were simple but effective. With a bit more polish, this could definitely stand out. Keep up the good work!
I dont know how does that fit the theme,and sounds was not there, yet good job :)
hilarious game with a super fun concept I loved it. so simple yet so effective
Had lots of fun with this one! Although, I did get stuck a few times, and I don't know if that was by design ro not.
Please rate Hurricane Watch!
Kids, do not try this at home! Nice game ahah, had tons of fun daredeviling around with my bike, well done!
Super barebones of course, but you could be onto something with this. Its silly fun enough for what it is, and not really like something I've seen before. It could be cool if you had to chase someone else through the traffic premium rush style. One of the things that sort of bothered me was how sometimes cars would seem to move in a way that completely blocked my forward movement, and I kept thinking I could fit through smaller gaps than I actually could
I was trying to see what was lacking, and this is hit the spot: Having the ability to chase someone or something that's also peeling through traffic would definitely give me motivation to want to find an optimal route and really try to be *daring*.
Thanks, this is a really good analysis.
Premium Rush is one of the vibes I was channeling!! Chasing someone or something is a great idea. I positioned and sized the cars in such a way so that there is always a space to get through, sometimes you do need to ride along the edge of the road to do it. In real life I would never crash into a gap that was too small for me because I know how big I am but it does happen here. I'm not sure how to stop that. Maybe if I placed an orb on the floor in front of the cyclist that was the same width as the cyclist then you would be able to tell whether you could make it through a gap.
cool concept
I really loved the concept. But I don't see it fitting the theme. But the controls and the bicycle feel and look amazing!
The game is fun. I had a great time playing it. The downside is that there is no sound. Do the cars move randomly or is there a little bit more going on?
5 collisions and 134 seconds
Thankyou, that's a good score.
Each car has it's own brain and attributes (width, height, length, speed, acceleration, preferred gap to the next car, braking decelerration, ...). It will slow down if the player or the car in front gets too close.
Cool concept, but gameplay was a little bit flat. Would have maybe been cool to add some kind of damage system.
It's fun, but it could use some sound effects
Do not attempt this irl. Lol
