Game Description
It's a racing game set on a field with a bit of a twist.
How does your game tie into the theme?
You control a grim reaper, who has to ride around a field on their scythe to cleanse the demon pumpkins and save the harvest....BEFORE your collague, so you can get a promotion!

I think this is my favourite game of the jam! There's a fun little glitch to speed up without turning, by just holding left and right at the same time.
Really fun but too short. Speed feeling is good. Your game needs now tricks! :)
Nicely done! I like how this game is so unique compared to most of these games it has heart! I find the controls a little hard to pilot but overall good game!
Thanks! Tried my best.
Yeah I wanted a kinda slippery but controllable feel for it, but it coulda used a short sidestep at least and more indication for the boost.
Cool art style and nice upbeat racing music. Too bad it's so short :)
Did you implement AI for the computer opponent or is it i.e. recorded from your plays?
Glad you liked it! Im planning more tracks for it sometime in the future, but I plan their length similalry, maybee 1,5 times bigger, still testing that.
I sorta implemented AI, but nothing fancy.
Just gave chekpoints for the npc's rigidbody, then set it's normalized vector's endpoint to them one after the other. Tried navmesh but that wouldnt work for some reason.
Edit: wish i could take credit for the music too, but its a non copyright track, left the links to all used sfx's and music in the game's description, check 'em out sometime, maybe they got more in store that can catch your fancy.
Fun racing game! It's always nice to see a 3D game in a jam. The scythe strumming animation at the end was a nice touch.
Glad you had fun. I gravitate toward 3d models in general cause i find animating them more fun. Had to include that strumming, couldnt miss it. :D
The music is great, but as the other commentor stated the big "Go" text stuck on the screen makes it pretty hard to see where you're going
I left the link to the artists in the desc, be sure to check their stuff out, if you liked the music.
The go text bug is fixed im just waiting for permission for a reupload.
Fixed
My game was quite bugged unfortunately.. There was a massive "GO" on the screen that stayed here for the whole time. And also you could slip out of the map if you went too fast. But apart from these bugs the game is quite enjoyable.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Do They constitute as a game breaking bug? Cause I got around to fixing it today. So I could update the current version.
the big "GO" is game breaking yeah
Fixed
