if you press a direction and boost every time you pass all level

I found the driving controls kinda awkward, I think it would handle better with dedicated acceleration/reverse buttons

The boost seemed to drive the game wild and leave me uncontrollable.

Hi there. Found your game difficult mainly because couldn't see what was coming up soon enough when moving fast enough to do damage. Great design and smooth movement. Good job!

I found your game very well polished but camera really did bug me: its having hard time following the player, still a great game but you guys can improve this a lot

Polished art-wise, but the controls were a little bit awkward and the skip that the camera does when you hit obstacles was very jarring. Once I understood what I was doing though I quite enjoyed it (even if the boost is maybe overpowered). Overall a great effort! : )

Thanks everyone for comments! Working on that project was really fun and we planning to finish some features, that wasn't included in present version of the game, as cooldowns on abilities and some balance with domination points. (Anton Nicolayev, artist/gd, sorry for English, not very good at it :) )

That was really cool. Little bit of twisted metal feel

The art's good but the camera seems to have issues when you boost, making it hard to play.

Really slick looking presentation, reminds me of what micromachines might be like on a pinball race course.

Others may not have cared for it, but I thought the driving mechanics were awesome. I love drifting, and I love car combat. Well done!

Hahaha, Smashing enemies with the wrecking ball feels like hammerwatch. Great mechanics plus the audio is great too!

Cool mechanics and a great look. Had a lot of fun playing it. I ended up getting bored after about 10 minutes when I couldn't figure out what it was I was trying to do.

Good solid fun and great graphics! I liked the idea of traveling between worlds to destroy your enemies. Overall a well done game, but could use some more content!

Very bad result in "audio" and I really don't understand where trouble/reasons are. I'll be glad to see & read any feedback about "What you didn't like in the music and sound effects". Thank you in advance :(
