Awesome game, loved how you took a unique concept and really ran with it! The level of polish is extremely impressive, even with multiple people it still takes a lot of effort and competency to get this done just from a project management standpoint, so kudos for that! The one area that wasnt the most polished was the new user experience unfortunately, some of the mechanics of the game weren't the most obvious and definitely hindered my enjoyment of the game the first few rounds. I think the idea of having tooltips in the menu is extremely cool in theory, but in practice if I have to read a lot of them to understand the core mechanics of the game (i.e. blocking bullets w/ windows) might as well just have a dedicated tutorial popup with the most important info. Excellent work nonetheless!

Use of the limitation
Windows are used to block attacks from the frequent hillbillies that approached to your side. Also hazards made stains on your front window that made it hard to see, therefore having to utilize your windshield wipers.

Impressive! Great work for 72hs.
Nitpick: I would have liked to have some on-screen instructions.
Silly game with an impressive amount of polish! Your choice of audio got me laughing a few times, and the road side props were a nice touch (pretty sure I saw a UFO). The mechanics are tricky but after a few attempts I got the hang of it. A possible bug I noticed is that the rear-view mirror is flipped, so if a car is coming up on my left it will appear to be on my right in the rear view mirror.
Great job!
Man a lot of stuff gets on the window. Would probably be fun in VR.
controls feel so good, fit to theme and limitation very unconventional and perfectly fitted good work
The atmosphere is very jovial and chaotic.
I didn't know how to successfully deal with a car that was shooting at me.
The trap where the windows get dirty is hilarious. Good work!
Love the spacial audio! makes it feel more immersive when you zoom by things :)
There is a surprising amount of stuff in this game for the time limit, and very fun to play
I enjoyed this game so much. There was a lot of choas and the theme really added to it! Game is very polished. The art, design, and feel, are very inspiring!
Very nice visuals and very polished for a 3 day game jam. The sound effects are interesting. However, there is too much stuff going on at the almost same time. I know it's supposed to be fast-paced, but maybe the cars from behind destroy you too quickly. This is a very solid game overall and I hope the results show that too!
I liked it, so funny and engagment! Just driving suits me perfectly.
Really neat graphics and overall feel to this one, very polished! It's completely bonkers to play but it's an awesome concept!
(p.s. unless I missed something, it appears impossible to exit the free drive mode?)
(nvm you just drive off the road to crash :) )
This game is so cool! Its so funny watching as armed cars swerve beside me.
