It is probably fun to play with different power ups. I don't know how or when the cards that you choose would have been played but you could really make something out of this concept.\n\nOne thing about the cars, when I steer left and the go forward, it rotates counter clock wise as it is supposed to but when I go backward it must rotate clockwise when I press left because I actually control the positioning of the front tires, just like a real car.\n\nWhat is missing for a complete game would be using the cards, music and sound effects, probably an AI opponent because LD games are mostly played by single players. This is really a lot to do in 48 or 72 hours but you did a great job on what you have right now. I especially like how it runs on my 32 bit XP VM and is a very small .exe. This is the way it should be, run on every Windows without any hassle! :-)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"conk","author_uid":"1001346","time":"2018-05-05T13:53:51Z","epoch":1525528431,"modified":1525528431,"text":"Probably should have read your page first as me and my mate were fairly confused why the pickups didn't activate :stuck_out_tongue: but it's understandable, I tried to make a card game too and also failed to implement all features. The main issues we found though, ignoring the incomplete features, was the collisions were very buggy, I managed to get stuck in the wall with no way of escaping.\n\nGraphics are nice but could've done with a bit more polish, but I reckon if I'd spent less time polishing my GFX I'd probably have managed to complete more features of my game, so take that advice with a grain of salt. Great job :grin: ","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Ajay.2002","author_uid":"1036660","time":"2018-05-15T05:05:46Z","epoch":1526360746,"modified":1526360746,"text":"Cool game but you should probably read the description before you play","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Steve Sparkes","author_uid":"1009961","time":"2018-05-15T14:11:22Z","epoch":1526393482,"modified":1526393482,"text":"A really great concept! The amount of cards was a bit overwhelming at first. Perhaps a Hearthstone style choose 1 out of 3 would be a way to get newer players into the game. :) The controls for driving were a little finicky, it would be great to see it polished up for the future!
