Fun game, takes me back to when I was a kid, loved this types of game. Great music, adds to the atmosphere, well done!

Submitted

Ha that was really fun.  Music is jammin!  The super quick transitions after successful merges prompting for another merge and another merge; really makes for some wild gameplay; definitely a fun idea - nice work!

Submitted

You have a very interesting idea for the game! I really liked it very much. Unfortunately, there is not enough variety in the game. And after twelve thousand the speed becomes too fast. You've made a good game!

Submitted

Huh, that my best. Cars so fast in the end

Nice game:

Pros:

The graphics are neat.

The gameplay is simple.

Cons:

The game is too short.

The graphics are a bit blurry.

It would be nice If there is a whoosh sound for when you switch lanes.

Developer

Thanks for playing! The visual clarity is definitely something to work on for next time, as well as a longer game.  My last jam game was too long so hopefully, my next one will come out just right!

Love the gameplay, it's fast paced and simple to understand. Sounds are great and incorporated nicely. The transition after merging is a little abrupt but still fun to play nonetheless

This town sure has a lot of police cars :-)

Great submission, it feels polished and easy to learn/play - it feels clear what's going on from the first play-through.

I enjoyed it, is there any way to get to the third lane?

Developer

Thanks for playing!

It's a little hard to tell visually but when you move up one lane, all the lanes move down with their cars and a new lane is added on top. So if you move up twice, you're in the original third lane, and two new lanes are above you.

Definitely something I would want to rework visually if I keep working on it

Submitted

I see, that makes sense. Maybe if the whole screen is filled with lanes and one lane is outside the camera and when you move up the camera loosely follows the player and a new lane is created out of sight while the bottom one is deleted.

Very simple idea, but definetly fit the theme ^^

It's fun to play. good work :)
