This was a lot of fun to play! The difficulty level was just right, and the car controlled very smooth and reacted as I expected it to do. I found it nice that you could recharge your car by not accelerating, so you can manage your energy even better, and cannot fail the game (no game over when your energy is 0).

Music is pretty cool (I did not hurt your feelings ;)), but the graphics are pretty bland to be honest.

Overall well done!

The concept is really nice. One of its kind. This is my 2nd LD too so I know exactly what you mean 😅. Anyways, gam play was nice. I loved the concept.

Nice, this is a fun game.

First off, I get that this didn't meet your end vision, however I think it is a very cool game as it stands. It is very challenging to race and collect the batteries. One thing I really liked is the mini map, makes the thing look polished and on par with other racing games. The music was actually good! Sad to admit though I never actually completed all 3 laps, I just abused the heck out of my boost. Anyway good luck!

The idea really fits the theme and i liked the simplicity of it, great job!

I got stuck on walls on grass a few times and couldn't back out at all so I needed to restart. Other than that the game was fairly enjoyable!

This is got pretty good feeling to it. Well done!

Really nice and simple with good balancing. The spacing and placement of batteries is provides interesting risk and reward strategy. An engine sound would have been nice but I really like the music.

Just finished playing Battery Booster! I like cars/racing so was excited to find this. Car controls can be difficult to get "right" and I think you did a good job on that front. For me, it was difficult to get the boost and still race fast. I feel like some sort of visual aid telling you the direction of an incoming battery might have helped, or maybe I'm just bad. Good work!

Good game. I agree with @drtizzle that the controls are just right. Not too responsive, not too sluggish. The music was a little repetitive but added a nice touch. I managed to improve my time three games in a row, which means I was getting better at the game. Gives the player something good to try to improve on. Bonus points for a nice menu screen, and all features seem to work right. Got stuck against the wall once and had to shuffle back and forth several times to get out, so maybe an option to recenter on the road at the cost of a time penalty might be a way to go. Overall, nice job, thanks for the game!

Very nice game. Top down race car are always a classic, with simple mechanics but fun race in the track. Graphics and music are good, sound effects probably not much, but that's nothing. Great work!

Not too bad. It was a nice challenge to balance between gathering energy and having the optimal driveline.

**Great work!**

I actually enjoyed that there were no AI cars (I like playing without AI and in such a short amount of time, working on a good AI is almost impossible in my opinion). And it's better to have no AI then to have a bad one.

Also, I loved the simplicity of it. The feeling was just right when "driving".

**All in all: A great game, especially for you second LD :thumbsup:**

I think you can add some optional shortcuts (wall is broken and possible to move around trees). It's also hard to start when you got stuck in wall with 0 speed (even if your power is max).

Here is my play:

Damn, I wanted to try this one out but when I tried to launch the Windows version on a Windows 8 OS, I get an error message "Failed to load mono" and the game doesn't launch :(

Good idea :) well done

Really fun game to play, but needs a bit polishing. Concept of gameplay is simple, but fun. I think that steering could be better, but it is not bad. Great Job!
