I liked this! It can start deceptively easy depending on your difficulty settings, but as you up them it gets more and more tense, and a single mistake can end your run. I'm glad you made it possible to configure everything here, it was a great way to allow players to set their own difficulty level. And as a bonus it allows you to make everyone an NPC and see who wins! Good job. ♥

Thank you!

I love it when games let you customize a lot so I try to include that in my games as well, when possible.

I must admit I have watched several races of just NPCs with different speeds, skill levels and lengths of track.
Including one epic one over the max length of 10.000 on Level 4. :D

it was a nice touch adding the possibility to customize the opponents speed and strength, it becomes very difficult in the 4th level expecially with a long length, good work overall!

Thank you for playing!

Yeah, I thought it'd be fun to test your capability against slow but strong bots or fast but stupid ones.
Or even fast and strong opponents.

Very cool idea!! Insane that you programmed CPUs and 4 player mode. I could totally see myself playing this with three other friends as a party game. Good job!

Party Game is exactly the vibe I was going for.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

I'm just imagining 4 people huddled around a singular Nokia 3310 playing this game during a lunch break.

Good vibes, good game, awesome that you went with this idea :)

Might be a bit crowded at the numpad. :D

Thanks for playing and the kind words.

I love this! We had a pretty small amount of screen real estate to start with and you go and decide to make a 4-player game!? Not only that but the game is also great!? I'm honestly really impressed! I really enjoyed the various platforms you added with each level. One of my faves of the jam so far, fantastic job! :)

Wow! Thanks for the kind words!
I'm very happy to hear that you liked it so much, thank you.

It was a fun challenge to make a game that basically only has 12 pixels in one dimension but I'm happy with the results. :)

Took me some time to wrap my head around it, but once I did, it became a fun challenge type beat. The additional levels were gave lot of variety too. Genuinely amazed how well you managed to get 4 player game to fit in the limits of this game jam.

Hey, thanks for playing!
I'm glad you had fun.

Yeah, it was interesting to create a game that is essentially only 12 pixels high :D
