Hi! Thank you so much for your nice comment :)
The position counter is a bit overkill in this game xD There are around 50 triggers around the whole track, used as checkpoints. Each kart keeps count on the lap it's running now, its current checkpoint, the target checkpoint and the distance to the latter. Then a race controller compares all karts progression data and sorts them in order!
There's a lot of room for optimization, but worked like a charm so who cares! Here's a pic so you can see what I'm talking about.
Thank you so much for your comments! I plan on fixing the wall clipping and adding the coyote jump, but the duplication bug is something I think that can be exploited in a good way, since I designed this as a speedrun-oriented game!
And please, keep in mind you played the post jam version in order to vote! The jam version contains fewer levels and there is no boss <3
Thank you so much for your words!
To do the trick that you mention, every time the player touches a coin I check for collisions in the top of the coin stack, the position where that coin would be placed if picked. If it encounters a wall of any kind, then the player won't pick the coin.
I'm sure there are more optimized ways to do this, but given the time constraint and the low memory usage in graphics, I just went with what I think is the easy way!
Love the aesthetics and sounds, nice work there!
I think there is a major flaw in the level design: by shooting constantly upwards, there is no way the herd of pathogens will advance for the first 13-14 waves. This makes the game so easy that is boring. I'd consider putting a barrier there to avoid this "exploit".
Besides that, it's a solid entry, and I had a lot of fun playing it. Congrats!
Nice concept! As everyone commented already, the controls are a bit clunky. I understood the need of shooting the drones, but when the swarm is too big, shooting only delays myself (the character stops running for a few frames with each shot), and that's an instant game over.
Nevertheless, I played 4 rounds and I enjoyed every one of them! Congrats <3
