Have you checked that your GDD is publicly accessible ?
Yes!

Is your game set to public on itch.io so we can see it?
Yes!

Summarise your game!
It's a subway surfer inspired game except it's not infinite you have a goal to reach. You are an angry Citizen who wants revenge on the city government so you strap a bomb to your vehicle and become a weapon.

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
In this game I took the theme sorta literally. Your character straps a bomb to their vehicle and become a suicide bomber essentially

Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
I've struggled a lot in jams in the past. This one in my opinion went super super well. Basically I just want to know if this game feels fun? The whole time I've been working on it I've struggled to tell if it is actually fun.

My highest score with the ice cream truck

Nice game overall. Some feedback: Repeated inputs seem to have delays (I can’t just spam A or D and switch lanes as fast as I want), causing me not to switch lanes sometimes. Don’t know if that’s intentional or not, but I felt that I needed faster response time

I don’t know if it’s placebo effect or not, but I felt that some vehicles turn better than the others. Like the ice-cream truck.

The goal is well-designed: let the player achieve the highest score.

Your GDD is nice and explains it pretty clearly with a good timeline.

My main criticism would be that my I wanted something more to motivate me to play the game! Like I wish it had a leaderboard with the highest scores and something to compete against.

Developer

oh! Thanks for the feedback! There was a lot I had to cut and things I wanted to add. I wanted to do a leaderboard but I’ve never done something like that before and I wasn’t sure how to go about it. I could’ve watched a tutorial on how 🤔 I got too focused on polishing. As for switching lanes I did sorta limit the player but I kept lowering the amount of time it would stop you from switching lanes, my gut said to get rid of the limit I should’ve also yeah all of the cars control the same but some definitely felt better I kept getting that while I played too!
