0/10 not enough geese

Fun game, though I've found the car a bit too slippery...

I like the synthwave aesthetic!

Great-looking game! I dig the 80ies-vibe. It would be nice to also have a leaderboard for best times which would be more relevant for the speedrunning challenge than highscores.

Wooow that was an amazing one, and I love how you combined the theme directly to your gameplay which is 100% speedrun based! Love the aesthetics and that goose is 2 cool 4 skool!

Wow! Crashing into cars is pretty satisfying, the vaporwave aesthetic is on point

Sadly my pc didn't like it too much but it looked amazing! I also love the menu screen artwork lmao!

I love the aesthetics on this one and the simple gameplay fits the mood really nicely, like it's a remake of a real '80s game. The car feels great, so good job there. Agree with others that it isn't the best use of the theme, though.

Thanks for playing and for the nice feedback, yeah we kind of shoehorned the theme into our predetermined game idea so it's definitely not a perfect fit.  But we also should've communicated our use of the theme better in-game.

I'll include it this comment from our game-page incase someone misses it!

Gameplay: Pretty solid for jam ! The car is slippery as fuck if you start to turn too fast but it's part of the fun ! A bit repetitive perhaps.

Theme: I don't know ? I would say no.

Aesthetics: Go fucking damn the poster only could sell you the game ! The retro neon vibes puts that couch gag from the simpsons in my head and the color palette is just so good. 5/5

Sound: Fit well with the theme !


Overall: I crashed into so many car and I have zero regrets ! Coolest entry !

Just, wow... Music: 10/10, visuals: 10/10, retrostyle: 10/10. Sadly the game isn't that good for speedrunning and I wish the sense of speed was conveyed better. The car felt like it really had some weight to it. Awesome game!
