[raw]
made by euske for LD27 (COMPO)
Reach the end of a busy street without being knocked out by nasty people! Use powerups wisely, which last exactly TEN SECONDS.

NOTICE on Linux version: you need to install an Arial-compatible font.

EDIT: the goal is to gain more score (not just to reach the end), which you will find difficult when you use too many powerups.

EDIT: a bug that your speed hasn't been reset after replaying was fixed.

There are waaay to many powerups; it's basically a continuous powerup game.

Good effort nonetheless!

Yesssss all of the things on the screen forever!

In all honesty it might be too much but still, I like experiences like that, when everything just gets thrown at you

Powerups are too frequent, only difficulty is the fact that the jump powerup is quite bad. Interesting game that could use some rebalancing.

The powerups are actually counter-productive as they prevent you from getting any score.

Yay! I got a smiley face!
It's a bit too easy- the biggest challenge is putting up with the overwhelming visuals.
The tile texture of the ground was strange- sometimes it didn't move at all, sometimes it went really fast. It never seemed to move at the speed of the character, this just added to the overwhelming-ness.

Nice little race game, it was fun. It could be improved by polish it a bit more with effects and better graphics.

Lovely audio! Crowded it is indeed; makes it a bit chaotic.
Power-ups could be more fun - it is a bit boring to do nothing while waiting for 10 seconds to pass; but judging by the title that's maybe the point :P
Well other than that's it's a really fun game; I loved it!

Nicely done.

The countdown timer takes the whole screen. Its too hard to see anything behind it. May be a little transparency on it will help. 10 sec feels really long when watching the count down timer on the screen.

Nice game, but the countdown should be smaller, you can't see a thing behind it... :(

I like the continous flow of basic shapes. You just need to polish the balance of things going on, as others said, and you'll have a great simple racer. Congrats.

Actually quite fun, but 10 seconds was a bit long for the powerup duration. And the giant numbers blinking over the games were annoooooying! Good work otherwise!
