Fun, I liked the art style. Could really use some faster intro dialogue though.

Incredibly satisfying particle effects for the blood. Also the parallax scrolling was a nice touch. Overall a pretty fun game.

I found it creepy that there were dead bodies after the finish line in subsequent runs... a killer on the lose other than me? This game needs squishing sound effects when you land on grandmas. Anyways, loved it! :D

I'm so sorry, sfxr doesn't do squish... I definitely needs that though, along with a good soundtrack.

Great game which I really enjoyed. The criticism I had was noted by "God" so you are already aware of the pedestrians on highway problem already.

aHAHAHAAAA !!!11! This puts me in a frenzy (shaking head and wobbling tounge around)
You should get extra extra points for driving fast and smashing or fast and serving ;-)
I likes!

On this computer, F-Secure thinks this is "potentially harmful". It does run when you allow it to, though.

My game happens to be a variation of quite the same theme - I just didn't even bother to put in a score system but rather focused on the feel of driving. 8)

Hilarious game especially with the blood particles. Adding a couple more point parameters could benefit the game though.

Very much enjoyed it, though I was a little sad when multipliers didn't stack.

I'm a little hesitant to admit, but I love this game. The aesthetic is awesome, gameplay is simple, yet it feels rewarding. I'm not sure if this in fact makes me evil though. PS: Love the goat.

"VILLIANOUS" typo /facepalm xD

Also, I love the fact that because of the head-on view of the road and pedestrians combined with a three-quarters view of the truck makes for acceleration and deceleration when switching lanes because of the diagonal motion. An interesting choice.

As far as the game itself goes, it was really fun to squash, crush, crunch, and splatter all the silly creatures walking across the road. They're crazy if they thing I'll avoid them!

It's always fun to run stuff over. It's probably the main reason cars where invented. Too bad the game doesn't feel like it has an ending despite such a promising beginning.
Suggested plot twist : in level 4 the goat starts driving the truck and the human can't bear to watch !

Fun game. I wish there was some kind of penalty.

Crap, on XP in VMWare the ganme runs very slowly and then locks up right before the baby carriage. No problems with any other game so far, odd. Oh well.

One of the best game i've played so far, extremely addictive, i really liked it, i don't know if a soundtrack should have been necessary, but still, great job !

Fun game, the sound effects could be better, and the story is unfinished.

Needs hilarious audio to really make it special. Hilarious concept and theme interpretation. But I gotta wonder.... where's the goddamn four lane highway cutting through a forest that's full of old ladies, little school girls, and ABANDONED BABY STROLLERS all moving in the same direction????!!!!
