Very fun and creative idea, though the game is quite challenging I definitely felt the effort you put into it. Great job.
I thought a lot about the mechanics and premise, so I'm glad you liked it!
Very different and unique from other games in this jam so well done. It looked very basic visually which can get repetitive over time, but the trade-off was a solid gameplay experience. The map was my favourite part since I have played many game jams with 2d mini-map, so it was really refreshing to see a 3d mini-map. If you wanted to push this idea further, I would make the city more natural in road structure with more curved roads and unique junctions or realistic situations like blocked routes with accidents. an impressive game overall.
Going into these jams I value uniqueness and an enjoyable experience over things like visuals or polish, so I'm absolutely thrilled that you got that from playing the game. I try to nail the gameplay aspect first before working on the visuals, so only the bike and cars got any modeling attention. Those cubic buildings are next in line for a revamp though! I love your idea for more natural road patterns. A grid was simplest to implement, but having curves and different intersection types would give the map much more personality. Accidents and blocked paths sound like a perfect way to throw off a player's plan and keep them on their toes. Thanks for your feedback!
quite creative with the jam theme, and a lot of fun
Thanks! I'm glad you had a good time.
I liked the game! Simple but cute, EGGxecution was very good. Only 1 thing: make map borders.
Thanks! I didn't have time to add egg puns, so thanks for filling the quota. The lack of borders is definitely an issue, but for now I just have to use honor code.
very fun! cute graphics! smart idea! interesting take on the theme! although, i did notice that you can just ride your bike outside the map to avoid all the cars... really fun game though!
I'm thrilled that you had a good time with it! An hour before the deadline I had to choose between stopping the player from cycling into the abyss outside the map and making the car model more than just a basic rectangle. Those rectangles hurt my soul, so the infinite abyss had to stay.
you made the right choice, and at least it made it easier for me to beat the game lol
The theme is very creative. The mechanic is super effective because you have to be constantly making a gameplay decision and it's very fast paced because of how fast the eggs cool - you have to switch between juggling the eggs and steering at all times, which adds difficulty but it's still entirely in your control. So that was done very well. It's like how it feels to actually be driving and have to look at your GPS at the same time! This game definitely has a lot of charm to it and would probably be pretty popular with some more levels and some more visual polish.
The theme made me think of a constant fight against the cold, so I tried to capture the anxiety of that struggle, heightened by the multitasking element. I'm really happy that you could get that through the gameplay. Thanks for your feedback!
LOL i really liked this one. nice take on the theme !
I really tried to think outside of the box for this one, so I'm glad you liked it!
Brilliant fun, this is the kind of thing that Game Jams were made for!
Thanks! I tried to keep my ambition in check for once, and surprised myself by actually finishing.
very creative concept! zipping around was a lot off fun, nice work on the traffic system!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! The traffic system was a bit of a nightmare, but I'm glad all that work paid off.
