I just rated your great game! Thank you very much for watching the stream yesterday!
I would appreciate it if you could check out my game too!

Haha, car go brr

Really good game ! I was confused at first, but when my car started and went RIGHT into a wall it was great fun :D. I like the idea of having to prerecord your inputs and see the mayhem that ensues, and the execution was good.

Think you may need to make the player able to control the car directly just a bit at the start, to “feel” how it controls, and then remove it, but discovering it works too ! Overall great job, I’d love to see more of it.

Great idea. Biggest problem was the lack of level. I want more!

Submitted

Great concept! Like other have said, it may lack feadback of some sort to at least guess what you're doing (maybe just sound feedback which vary depending on your speed?), because it feels a bit frustrating. Other than that, well done :)

I would love to see more levels of this!

I really dig this game, I love how you have to guess where you will end up! (or hit a pole ofcourse)

Nicely put together. Some visual on what keys are being recorded would have been nice.

Great concepts. Missed some feedback in the planning phase. But it was fun. well done

Very enjoyed the concept, missed having visual feedback on what keys you are pressing during the recording process

Hi there, good concept ! A bit more feedback concerning what we're doing during the planning phase and a restart button would have been perfect. GG anyway !

This game is amazing and I would like to see it as a full game with more levels in the future, the only thing I would say is to have a restart button when you realized that you have hit a wall and can't move. Overall a great game!

I love this idea! The game looks great and runs well (for me). The music is fun too.

It is a bit painful (albeit funny) to have to watch 15 seconds of a failed drive --- a restart button when you see you've gone wrong would be nice.
