Need for a Lack of Speed by Turrus

[raw]
made by Turrus for LD 41 (JAM)

A local versus turn based driving game. Race friends to the end and try not to crash. I joined up with a friend who did some art and design to help relieve some pressures. Lots is missing but think we had a good crack hope you all like what we came up with. screenshot1.png screenshot3.png screenshot2.png

Cool. Its hard to predict how far the car will go, but it ads to the experience. It would be cool if there were some hazard on the race track that need to be dodged. Cool game.

Played it by myself :shrug: car movement seems fine, works ok with the turn based approach, I just wish there was some slide to the collision, the cars get stuck even though they seem to be parallel to the wall.

PLayed by myself as well. Cars seem to get stuck to the walls and you can't reverse

One of the best turn based driving games I've seen around here. Pretty good!

Don't know how to move but the idea seems fun. Games that require other players can often be hard to play/vote for during a jam because most often it is only one person playing your game, however I had a good chuckle at the name of the game and I like the simple graphics.

Really liked the graphics and implementation of turn-based driving. The controls were a bit hard to understand at first - replacing them with UI representing a steering wheel and stick shift may help.

Great job!

I think this was well executed. Played two player mode by myself, but I can see how this could work against multiple AI opponents. I especially like how the time keeps moving slooooooowwwwly while you ponder your next move. Art style is clear and readable!
