This game has a real crafted feel to it.  Great work

I was too dumb to understand what the Trolley solution is, before being pointed out what it actually is. Also the music was a banger. Great work!

I like the designs of the cube people and the way the train speeds up as you go. The game can feel pretty fun once it gets going but it takes a long time and there's not much there to keep you entertained. It'd be nice to see some obstacles but I really like the concept of the game and think it's pretty unique

excellent game and execution, great replayability.

If you added a bit more graphics (maybe little explosions when you hit the robot), debuffs (like running over people gives you negative points) and little powerups, i can see this making an excellent and addicting mobile game.

Good luck with the jam!

Fun!

I love that I was able to adjust the speed to fit my run, and the idea was a funny one. I too thought of doing something related to the trolley problem, but you managed to actually go with it so kudos to you :)

I really like the aesthetic of the game, and it is very amusing to just accelerate wildly to just blindly kill.

I like how you can choose between two play styles: Fast and dangerous, or slow and cautious. All I would say is that when facing down, the directions are reversed and It caught off gaurd first I played. Overall a great game!

Being immoral is so much fun! I really liked finding the area with the horde of people!

Simple, but enjoyable. I like the big yellow people. I think this could work well as a mobile game if it was polished up a bit. Nice work!

I think I found an exploit: You can just hold up and spam the right key and you will never lose.

Developer

Haha yeah, it works too with the left button~

A fun idea with a lot of potential! The game is fun, sometimes I got to a point where both ways would give me a game over, but thats not a big problem. The simple art style suits it really well!

Good looking game! Would have liked to see further ahead though, sometimes I didn’t see the robots ahead until I was literally at the junction, so it was a guessing game rather than a quick reaction thing. Very funny concept though!

Cute little game, relaxing to play. Good work!

I was confused initially because pressing my left and right arrow keys wasn't doing anything, but I restarted the game and it seems like it was a bug because it worked on refresh.

Developer

Interesting! We did not encounter that bug before, thanks for letting us know.

I love the art direction in this game! It's really cute. Nice job.

Cool little concept. I especially enjoyed having to look around and trying to spot which tracks are good to switch to. Wasn't very clear what I did right to go over the tracks and continue after the broken bit.
