It's also possible to create one high-octane racing game, completely distinct from the first one, using the color-coded barriers' thing you did.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>BUT, when you joined the two ideas, I found it to be rather confusing.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>You see, some of the which I find the greatest game designers state firmly that a good game is not about breadth of the mechanics, but the depth in which you explore them.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>That's my humble opinion :) \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also... hey, if you are interested in our entry, it is on my teammate's account: you can play WolfBit here:\r<br\/>http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/ludum-dare-35\/?action=preview&amp;uid=87729"},{"author_name":"DAT.NOT.MY.GAME!","author_uid":"56318","time":"Apr 24, 2016 @ 12:46pm","epoch":1461501660,"text":"This was rather entertaining, but I would use another key for shooting\/changing color in a web version."},{"author_name":"Freank","author_uid":"94168","time":"Apr 26, 2016 @ 4:18pm","epoch":1461687180,"text":"Hi, nice game !
