You obviously know how to make games. This is proof of that, seriously.
Without a doubt, I feel like you nailed the design and feel of Clowns and Carnage but added in a nice fresh steering wheel mechanic that frankly is an acquired taste. (Once you get the hang it's quite fun.)
During the chaos and me frantically shooting fireworks, I did end up clicking the RMB outside the screen quite often. Allowing for fullscreen on the Itch page can help with that.
Overall, this is a goofy, thematic, well-designed game with no real apparent flaw. I can see it being a mini-game in a co-op party game. Bravo!
