It is quite entertaining and chaotic. I had a lot of fun playing it. It's like a NES version of Rocket League, very fun, and the CPU works well for playing for a while. Good job.

whew the sliding is tough to get a hang of, but very satisfying once you do. very polished overall. it’s a little tough to see which way is forward at times, maybe some color could help there. plays really well. managed to drive the last puck straight into the goal at the last second - felt super good :D i do also like the graphics even if they are pretty simple. struck a good balance there, well done!

Thanks man. I appreciate you taking the time to play my game. As for the issue of not being able to differentiate between the front and back of a car, the pronounced black front bumper serves that purpose. Perhaps it's a but difficult to see it when the camera zooms out. I'll revisit it and try to come up with another solution. Thank you for your valuable feedback.

Well this take on 2D rocket league es really fun and well executed. Game is really polished and fun. Amazing work!

Developer

Thanks, man. I really appreciate you taking the time and playing it.

I won one match and lost another one.

I think the game works pretty well. I like the Micro Machines kind of physics, they're adapated to the chaos of the game, and the game controls well as you assimilated the go forward and backward commands. You just have as much control as I want to have there, that's true as someone who's bad at the game but I'm sure that's still be true for someone who'd get good at it, a match between players who know what they're doing would sure be fun too. The game is fun, it looks good too, the choice of vehicle is a nice touch. 

The game could use more pronounced sound effects but the music is good enough, overall it's a pretty well rounded game, I have really enjoyed my time with it.

Developer

Thank you very much for taking the time to play the game and for your feedback about the music and the SFX. I will replace the music and improve the sound effects once this jam is over. I also plan to add local (LAN and split-screen) multiplayer to it as well so keep an eye out for those updates.
