fun little game, I feel like the car moves a bit too much to the side when you press the left/right arrows, especially at the first stage :)

This is a pretty fun game! It’s very satisfying to see how everything breaks around you.

I do wish the controls were a little tighter. Right now turns feel like they overshoot a little, which is annoying when you bump into a big obstacle because of that and lose all the speed.

I also wish you didn’t lose all the speed. Maybe the collision could turn you sideways but maintain momentum, or something like that.

UI could be clearer. It’s not clear that the circle is your meter until size up, because this goop is not really associated with growing. And what’s the deal with fuel? At first I saw it going down and saw fuel pick-ups, but then it just stop mattering.

Overall, it’s a solid submission. Good job!

That was sooo satisfying! Those cops were so helpless ahah! ;) Great one, nice job! :)

Exhilarating, love a game about destroying stuff and then destroying stuff some more! A small nitpick I ran into a few times is that as the car gets bigger cops drive underneath and stuck me in place, had great fun still!

Really cool! I think my favorite to smash was the fire hydrants. I love how you get big enough to smash even the tallest building! really impressive, great job!

The mesh destruction is crazy ! The polish and feeling of the car is super good, really good job !

It is the fun game. Just had doing some pure destruction was so relieving after endless puzzle games!

Also a like how you did almost seamless world.

Btw, please check out our little puzzle game. There is violence too at the end :3

Answering the question, "What if you were the Katamari Ball with more destructive tendencies" brought me a lot of joy. One of those game jam projects that I hope you play with a little longer to see what comes out of it. When I get big enough will Megazord Police Car come fight me? In future levels will I crash into planets? Thinking about it gets me excited!

This reminded me of Simpsons Hit and Run, that I had played for too many hours in my childhood. Definetely a lot of fun. Thanks for bring me back those memories

Immaculate fun! So satisfying to get up to size and rampage the whole city. Really cool city generation technique too!

Submitted(+3)

It felt good to destroy things and grow bigger, allowing me to destroy even more things! The graphics and sound were also very consistent!

It reminded me of the game "Katamari Damacy" that I played a long time ago, but I think it would be perfect if it had one more unique mechanic added to it. I would like to try a version with more features.

I had a lot of fun smashing things! :D

Growing stronger feels satisfying and the graphics a cute.

Two things i didn't like: 1. I did not understand why i suddenly got busted out of nowhere...there was no police around. Was it because i went out of fuel? There should be some warning sounds that my fuel is getting low.

2. Knowing how much more things i need to smash before i transform into the next bigger form would be nice! :D

Great game!

Very satisfying turning in to CARZILLA! Love the little references to other games and pop culture

We had so many more puns, but had no time or in-game world space to implement them!

If you like puns, give our punny game a try!

Drive with Ryan Gosling simulator. Super polished, very fun to play

Reminds me of Tasty Planet. The physics of breaking stuff down is very satisfying. I recommend adding points, a timer and a leaderboard at the end for players to compete and making it more replayable.

Submitted(+2)

I liked the concept of just breaking stuff, however it felt like a goal was missing.  I did like how it fit into the theme though and you grew as you broke more stuff.

This game is awesome. I'm just sad that driving with  keyboard is a nightmare

Submitted(+4)

There is nothing better than breaking a lot of stuff, by driving through it.

Nice job!  It checks all the boxes for what I want in a kaiju smash stuff kind of game.  I got a little confused with which things were smashable and how the meter worked, but I still got to smash things up for a bit and it was fun.
