I really liked the design for the cart! And I also enjoyed the chaotic feel to it. The physics took me a minute to figure out, but once I did, it became really satisfying to see how quickly I could get through it. Really good job!

Developer

Thanks, I appreciate you taking my not-good car controller and viewing it as a challenge lol.

Fun game! All the rainbow sparkles!!!!!! <3 Very creative and looks great. I found the controls a bit challenging, but it may be because I need to get good ;) lots of spins. One other trick I managed to do, immediately after crashing through the boxes close to the start, I managed to fall through the ground into a black void, in glorious rainbow sparkle free fall until the timer stopped. Haha. Fun experience and nice game.

Developer

Thank you that's very kind, and it's great that the Nyan-cat rainbow trail helped you enjoy glitching to your death lol

That was cool, got silver in the end! Had to do a bit of practice, as the bus is slipping too much, even doing 360 from time to time, although that was fun to watch!

Developer

Thanks for your kind words, a lot of people have mentioned the medium Motorcat has a bit of a mind of her own lol

Submitted(+1)

That was fun ! It did feel a little bit like driving on ice though, and the big form didn't help me that much on the boxes, I always ended up crashing into them and moving them a little but almost completely stopping

Developer

Thanks for the kind words, and you're right. We need a pretty serious overhaul to the car's controller script lol.

The idea is suppper fun but pleaseee there is no i can drive this car (i can't drive in real life so how do you want me to drive this soap ahah)

Developer(+1)

Lol sorry, the car controls ended up being significantly harsher than intended, next time we'll choose a dish detergent that isn't so hard on clothing lol

LMAOO

Cool game. I liked the VFX and the music! The car handling was a bit difficult, when pressing left and right I was sliding all over the place! The mechanic is interesting too, could definitely be built upon post jam adding more mechanics for the larger and smaller cars! Overall, interesting entry :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks, those are definitely great ideas. Maybe the little car gets super speed, and the big car can do an actual AoE attack pulse of knockback.

Really like the vibe, the music and the vfx! Thanks for making this game, I laugh a lot when playing it

Developer

Thanks, we usually do horror games so it was fun to do something goofy and vibrant instead lol

Submitted(+2)

This is really great!

It's so refreshing to see a game that's just made to be pure whimsical fun without any strings attached.

The only thing I would have changed is the timer, which should be recording how long the player takes rather than give them a hard time limit to complete the game. That way first time players can just focus on getting used to the movement, and you could incorporate the times into a leader board.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your kind words and feedback, that's an interesting idea I'll discuss with the team if we continue development!

Our original plan was for couch co-op versus mode to be the main mode, but we ran out of time lol

Really enjoyable to play. A fun race game ! I liked the size changes and destroying those boxes was really fun. Good job !

Submitted(+1)

This was so much fun to play! I loved that the physics really came into play during collisions (esp. the boxes). I agree with the other comments about the medium car oversteering a little too much, but I got a pretty good handle on it after just two tries. Nicely done!

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for your kind feedback!

I love the energy of this game! The music and the rainbow trail are perfect! It was funny to see the car launch into the air when you change size where you're not supposed to. I managed to clip through the ground and fall out of the map😂

Fun overall, love the mario kart like entrance. Medium car was a bit hard to control. big  car mode was my favorite and the BLACK HOLE!!!!

Developer

Thanks, a few people have been mentioning the medium car's handling being the worst, which surprised me as small and big were the big problems during my testing.

If we continue development, I'll be throwing away the entire movement script for the car and trying again lol

Submitted(+1)

Cute and silly :D controlling the car is very tricky, as it frequently goes into oversteer.
Fun nonetheless!

Developer

Thank you, the car controls are definitely the #1 thing I would do differently lol

Submitted(+1)

This game made me smile :)

Developer

I'm glad that was your experience, especially after all the late-night programming lol

I love iiiiit!

It's super cute, the controls are great, and the idea is so excellent I'm dreaming about an antigravity racing game with this kind of mechanics as I write this.

My intuition failed my twice: when I thought the bigger versoin would be faster (in exchange for smaller clearance), and that it would help me catch more of the down-wind (although after reflection that would be dumb as the mass would cube while the exposed surface would only square) ; but you were smart enough to put advices in the menu and it simply enabled me to see the full game. Thanks!

Developer

Thanks so much for your kind words lol

Oh yeah that's similar to how mice can survive ridiculously long falls but elephants can't, since like you said, volume is cubic while surface area is square.

Steering's a bit wonky, but I had fun with it :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the kind feedback, the steering is absolutely the thing that worked out the least lol

Submitted(+2)

Fun game! I find that jumping over boxes as a tiny car is more efficient for me rather than smashing through with the giant car.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, and wow great idea lol

Submitted(+2)

Really cool idea.

I can see this as a full game, though you might need to tweak the steering physics a bit.

Overall really cute game!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I will absolutely be scrapping the current steering if we continue development lol.
