  • Fun little racing game. The theme didn't really come through well. The powerups are definitely engaging. Would love to see this extended!
  • Loved the music and the game was very functional. It didn't feel quite like it was hitting the theme as hard as it could, but I did find the vibe relatable! Great job

My my, this is a great game :D My only problem is that my vision is pretty dizzy after playing a while, also having top speed is actually bad for you!

Oh! I love your response and means a lot from you! Heels on Fire is probably my favorite theme interpretation in the entire jam...

And you're right, speed will make your life worse... :-) It's my only difficulty mechanic xD

This is a fun game to play. It is challenging yet I want to keep playing it! The concept is cute and you did a great job with the graphics!

Developer(+1)

hilarious game. I'm reminded of old Atari and flash games with this one. Trying to keep my kid from shitting himself on the highway is... Unique. Haha

Hah! Nice work. Balancing the three, erm, "resources" makes for an interesting challenge. Simple concept, jammy, irreverent. Love it. Reminds me of 80's arcade games. I don't think I have specific constructive feedback on this one, just keep going! Nice work.

I felt bad for the baby until he started pooping all over the road.... hahhah! funny game concept.

The game is alright; it felt like a super blurry game, though, just from how quick the movement was, and it felt pretty discouraging when hitting the vehicles.

I think it is a quick & fun game to play when you've got 5 minutes to burn, though. I feel like as a parent this is inspired by recent events in your life as a parent, ha.

Very fun! Was wondering if it was normal to avoid all cars if you go in  the center line? My guess is yes as you still need to go and get powerups around the road. 

Developer (1 edit)

You can, its mostly a safe space, but doing so will limit how long you can go and limit your score ^_^ I had intended to put water barrels passing through in. But I felt you were already forced to grab powerups and it could possible cause impossible situations.

Does the game checks if you are and if so makes your score go slower or you meant in theory? Because I just moved out of the lane when powerups popped up and recentered myself after, which still makes for a challenging experience, especially when you go super fast.
