Interesting concept, and definitely a lot of potential for a full game! Thanks for sharing this on the stream yesterday, well done for getting this done for the jam ^^

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

The game is a far relative of the Watch Dogs ahaha. But I like the idea of controlling others' cars without being their drivers. I think the game has a potential to be expanded into different genres, even full crazy puzzles (not sure how that goes but anything's possible). But seriously, if you decide to expand the game, then good luck, it's a fun game with a nice executed idea

Neat idea.  My suggestion is to take a look at Driver San Fransico and play around with similar effects for moving from car to car. I think it would make the experience even better.

Thanks for playing my game. I watched your video, was really cool to see your views on every game. Those were some very nice insights, I would definitely play driver san francisco and look for inspiration. I subscribed to your channel, and will soon check out your game.

Really cool game. Just needed some more time to polish to be excellent

Developer

Thanks man! couldn't find you on discord though.

That sucks. Heres mine is vitoxio#8417 . Feel free to reach out!

Developer

the ID is not working :(

This is an interesting concept, I think working on this even more after the jam could make for something even more awesome! Only feedback would be that exploring the concept of switching cars more wouldve been nice. Overall good job though! :D

Developer

thanks  for encouraging. I would definitely continue the project

Thank you for submitting your game to the stream! =)

I realized that the hacker theme was used a lot in this jam, how cool! Your game had a good proposal, but I think it could be much more explored! Maybe doing a series of missions involving hacking the city, freely moving the camera and such, could improve a lot!

Although very simple, as it is a jam game, I believe you can turn this into a product or portfolio project that adds a lot! Continue development! Peace!

PS: In our game, we also use the hacker theme. If possible, give a play there, please. =)

PS2: And thanks for the compliment haha let's keep in touch!

Developer

Hi man! Thanks for streaming my game and providing feedback. I'll surely try finding you on discord.(or you could give me your discord name)

Nice! Search by Patrocinio#4174

Despite the use of pre-existing art and sounds, the game was cool!

Developer

Thanks! The complete version won't have pre made assets.

A very fun game, with a very very original idea, with the teleporting into cars! Intriguing for a puzzle game, great job! Only thing I can recommend is to try and make your own assets next time! :D 

Developer

Lol thanks. yeah i dun goofed up on that assets part. but i'm glad you enjoyed it. further updates won't have pre made assets so hope you stick around to experience that :)

Submitted

The concept of the game is very interesting!

Developer(+1)

Thanks man! I'll do my best to improve it!

Submitted

Nice game, well put together.

I think the design of the last level stood out as something you'd put a lot of time into!  There were many times where you think you're about to die and have to think quickly.  Makes the player feel good to escape the danger.

Nice one!

Thanks for showing appreciation! your game looks beautiful. will surely check it out :)

Submitted

I liked it a lot well done! :D

Developer

Thanks man! Your game thumbnail looks beautiful. will give it a try soon :)

Submitted(+1)

Its a cool idea and could be made into a good puzzle game.

Developer

Thanks for playing my game. I plan on extending the game. Your game intrigues me. would play soon.

Submitted(+1)

Liked the idea but with the camera zoomed in like that, it's more hitching a ride and seeing what happens, whereas I would have preferred being able to plan out my route a bit more.

Developer

Thanks! this issue seems to be the most popular at the movement. I will surely tackle this issue. Will play your game as well :)

Submitted(+1)

Liked the concept! It's like a finding a way out of a maze but with a twist! Neat!!!

Developer

Thanks brother! I'm glad you liked it :)

Submitted(+1)

Simplicity and elegance are core to the concept, but a zoomed out camera would lend it self more to the kind of strategy the game seems to encourage

Developer (1 edit)

Yeah that seems to be the most common problem, I'll fix the issue in the updated version. Thanks for playing my game, your game looks nice as well, will try out soon. :)

Submitted

Thank you! if you make a post jam version ill be sure to try it!

Submitted(+1)

I like the simplicity of the game. Might be even better with a more zoomed out camera so you can do some proper planning. Overall still very good and spot on for the theme of the jam. Well done. :)

Developer

Thanks Jonas! i thought that narrowing down the vision in the  game might create a sense of urgency and chaos but guess that felt flat. Would do my best to tackle this problem better. thanks again for the feedback. Means a lot to me :)

Really clever use of the theme. Lots of potential to expand the concept too, great work!

Developer

Thanks! will surely look on expanding. all the best
