Simple but intense game. Aesthetic and music really fit together. Love the desert look. Thing got out of control so fast! I was about to cheese the high score by going backward, but it seem like you handled that case :) Other than that, this is a solid and fun game!

Very nice game , the art and music was so cool , the initial start wrecks me bad XD -Ivory-

Very nice game, as soon as I opened it, i got sacred because I got immediately into action., which fits the theme Perfectly.

Wow, I'm really bad at this even after finding the brakes. Great choice of music and great work of art, really put me in danger mode, a scoreboard would make it competitive and perfect (and would make me feel really bad about my performance probably)

I had a really good time with this, and it looks absolutely gorgeous. The controls are just right too, they're nice and reactive but you still feel out of control. :)

A very fun little game!

There's something that always scared me about fast cars. I think I have some sort of phobia of car accidents and this game really did pump some anxiety into me.

But It was very good! 

I enjoyed the artstyle. The 'fake' 3d was very well made. I like how you achieved a feeling of space, just by using a few rotated images. The colors are very pleasant to look at! Very warm an balanced color pallete.

Yep! Very nice simple game! Good job! (sadly only has 7 votes)

It would help a lot if you would rate my game as well! Thank you \(^-^)/

Thank you so much for the review! I spent a long time trying to get the false 3d to look nice, and in the end I wasn't totally happy with it, so I'm glad to see it get some praise!

Overall good game, had fun with it, only issue is having to read your game page to know the control. Although you map a lot of key, I guess a Q card with the most common would of help, either before the game start or at the bottom of the screen.

Artstyle is really neat and the music choice is appropriate. So Good Job :) !

That was something I thought about. In the end, though, I ended up prioritizing other parts of the game, and never got around to adding a controls screen. If I return to this game, I think that'll be the one thing I add

I like the limited color palette. It's a fun little game !

Good job !

Thanks a lot! I argued with myself a while over the color choices, so I'm glad it came off well!
