Super cool idea, feels very cahotic if you develop that in the future I would love to see larger environements with huge allies and bridges where you can speed up

Also cool car design

Thats an amazing game! The idea is so unique and fun that I was truly amazed by the start!
Great job and excelent take on the theme - just sorry for my taxi driver, bet whe will be spending a lot of time in jail after all those crimes lol

I love the concept. music is great, sounds are great, the world building is insanely good for a 72 hour jam. The controls, being the center-point of the game, are likewise amazing. I do wish I could continue to wind-up while in motion so I can keep going, and it would be nice if the acceleration was a touch slower to enable turning. I will be keeping this one to play from time to time. Would love to see this developed more.

Those are good ideas, thanks for the feedback. The acceleration is definitely a little overkill for the map.
Glad you enjoyed it tho :)

Glad you like it dude! Being able to wind-up while in motion could be really fun to try.
Feel like we gotta disclose that the music was just something from freesound.org (processed a bit ofc), but we wanted something cowboy bebob like, and there was just no way I'd be able to make that, but we felt like this kinda jazz fit the game pretty well too :D

It's a good game and an idea to drive a car, although the controls are a bit complicated.

This was such a brilliant idea! Great work.

P.S. I can't read your game page with the blue and yellow theme.

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it :)

And thanks for the page feedback, we'll change it up.

Ok, came back to play some more, and I gotta say, this is more puzzle than real-time driving and I love it. I feel like I'm doing the toy car version of Tokyo Drift when I can round blocks smoothly without running into anybody. You should expand this into a full-sized game with a single-player campaign!
