I would add some shortcuts in the keyboard to select the gears (it was really difficult to drive, change the gear and dodge those nasty/adorable cats at the same time :) ).
Well done!
I was not able to discern an end state to the game, which meant that the cats felt like mere distractions, and the shape collecting was pointless ways to increase points. In other words, I felt the game was without objective.
To be honest, I do genuinely there's something interesting going along with the game. The need to switch the car state while collecting things is interesting. When the car does move to full speed, collecting shapes actually becomes fun. But because of how disjointed the controls feel, I felt like I was fighting the game the entire way through.
