I also like the combination of cars and stealth. You say it's procedurally generated, but it seems like I always start in the same spot, maybe the seed needs to be randomized on every run? The camera clips into the buildings sometimes, not sure how to fix that. Sound effects, slightly improved driving physics, and maybe some sort of goal (instead of just how long you can last) would really make this game great.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Beebo Studios","author_uid":"1062033","time":"2018-08-15T12:13:12Z","epoch":1534335192,"modified":1534335192,"text":"Very good game!

I was having some fun, and then I saw a tree rolling on the road... Destructible content!!!\n\nSo I started running towards trees then I discoverd a part of the map that was blinking. I went closer, and it was full of trees colliding, pretty much from where the first tree was coming. I tried to run into it but a police car was hidden into it and I got caught.\n\nYou would probably describe that as a bug but for me it was the little something that makes a playthrough worth it haha.\n\nGraphics really helped to set the mood by the way!
