How does the game fit the theme?
You are driving the wrong way down a one way street - inspired by the Limmy comedy sketch.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Vehicle physics is my modified version of the amazing arcade physics by Ash Devs. The tilt and tyre marks he gets full credit!

All models are from Unity Asset store (free, or already owned).

The radio station recordings and other character voices are all by the BAFTA award winning comedian, Limmy (permission given!)

Code was all mine.

Cool game ! I was scared at first that there might not be an ending. But overall, it made me laugh,  i absolutely love it ! <3

Developer

Was I supposed to play this 1000 times in a row and make little skill progress? Because I did. I need to stop playing it now. Love Limmy, love Crazy Taxi, love this game. (EDIT: I now read in the comments that there's an end! Will have to come back to it later then! Kept getting round the corner where two cars are heading towards you and that was it for me.)

hahah that’s exactly what I wanted to hear! Yes there is an end! But the idea of having to play it over and over to master the corners / obstacles was the plan! 

Please get to the end and submit a score, it’s only a few more streets after the double car street! Thanks for the comment, and I’ll give your game a go asap! 


There’s a YouTube video on the main page which might give you some tips!

You totally, absolutely nailed the driving physics! Good Job!

Developer

Thanks, I have to give Ash Devs credit for most of the physics. I've added it to my submission now so I don't take full credit. But I've been playing with their arcade physics for a few months and managed to get it tweaked just right, then by coincidence I'm making a taxi themed game, so I already had a good basis to work off!

It's so hard! I really like the driving physics though

Will be a little bug patch coming in the next hour, will hopefully make the driving / pick up / drop off feel a bit more intuitive. The hit boxes were a little bit off! 


Thanks for your comment, it was meant to be challenging, the whole course only takes 1min30s if you manage to avoid obstacles - but I've had a lot of feedback about it being difficult. I think it's the curse of being a solo jammer and getting too good at my own game!

Yeah, it's so hard to balance difficulty alone!!! I'll come back and play it again later today :)

It was really fun thank you ! Loved the ambience. I finished the game but couldn't enter my name, when I typed R it restarted the game :'(

OH NOOO!! That was one that didn't come up in my frantic 4am bug hunting mission! Sorry about that, I'll put a warning on the page!

I submitted your score for you... I hope it's close to what you got!

Thanks a lot 😂
