This game is great, it reminds me of a classic called SPYHUNTER which you should definitely look up and check out if you haven't heard of it! I loved how much effort you put into the art, music, and sound effects. The music is a little "discordant" -- meaning that it feels somewhat random and unharmonious, but it was interesting! I also think the idea of a summer road trip is perfect for the theme. You just need bathroom breaks, spilled sodas, and annoying siblings!~ haha

My only feedback is that the currency resets when replaying which means the only way to take advantage of the shop is to "be good at the game" the whole time you're playing. Much of the design of the "roguelite" genre is to assist the player by keeping some of the currency upon death so i can buy my way to victory! I also felt like if i weren't lucky enough to be in the lane where the coins were dropping, i was basically going to miss that pickup. Maybe you could award coins based on distance, and have bonus pickups the way you do now. The idea would be to make sure the player can survive long enough to take advantage of all the effort you put into the shop mechanics.

Great work overall, congratulations on submitting!

I like the idea of having a road trip for a game! Also, I like the upgrades and fuel system. This game reminds me of the "Learn to Fly" game series (love that game). I really like this game. Great job.

I like how you added the upgrades functionality to the classic old arcade game.  The car snapping wasn't that smooth which makes it laggish and difficult to play, otherwise the game is really good!!!

very good game but the coin is super hard to collect which means you can't get too many of them and then it would take a very long time to actually be able to buy upgrades in the shop, so slow down the coin or something

Good Job! My feedback: Its almost impossible to collect a coin if its more than 1 lane away. I think slowing down the speed of the player would solve that problem. Other than that this is a great game!

Ah yes, the summer road trip. This game did encapsulate the hectic driving essential to any road trip but it maybe was a little too hard. The cars and coins come up really fast and it’s hard to avoid or go to them. Some cars spawned inside each other and sometimes there was a coin in the car. The upgrades add an interesting rouguelike element but it’s so hard to earn coins I didn’t get to purchase many. Good job overall.


I rated your game, could you please rate mine :)
