This is a very mixed bag for me, whilst I loved the graphic art style, the music drove me insane in about two minutes.

Nice and slick though, well done!

@gabriele, Thanks for the feedback!
Yes, I am very bad at writing music, sorry for the pain in your ears!

Lovely artstyle! Fun gameplay, even though I kept circling with the last enemy until I eventually lost because I slowed down too much :D

Haha, I had fun circling the cars over and over like it was some kind of mad max boxing ring match :smiley:
The art is cool too. Nice job!

I really liked the idea and the graphics of the game, however the audio was very repetitive and had to turn it down in the end. Smashing into cars is very fun though!

Gameplay felt great once I figured out how to brake lol. I would have liked it if the camera showed a little more of where I was driving, as especially at high speed I had a hard time steering in time to avoid hitting trees. Also, I would have liked a little more feedback when I damaged enemies. But for 48 hours this is super impressive! Well done.

Nice entry, the idea is great. It's just kinda hard to crash the other cars, the music might be a bit too repetitive and the game lacks of sound design. Just hearing our car may improve the feeling of driving it and it would be great to hear the crashes!

@aevek Indeed, I did not even think about moving the camera at high speeds! And about the feedback from collisions - I thought about it, but I just did not have time. Thanks for the helpful feedback!

Прикольная динамичная игра) Единственное, когда заезжаешь в гараж и нажимаешь esc, то игра выходит из полноэкранного режима и приходится играть в маленьком окне.

Really fun game ! I liked the art style a lot, and the controls are unusual but yet feel good ti play with.

Good job !

@ekaterina Действительно, совсем забыл, что esc сворачивает полноэкранный режим! В целом, надо было сделать закрытие этого окна и перезапуск на наэкранные кнопки, что бы была возможность играть только мышью, но об этом я подумал только в самый последний момент)

Cool visuals but I'm not sure about the controls. Gave me a weird sensation that the cursor is locked so close to the car. Gameplay itself is fun though :)

Good game, a little hard to control. Might be a little easier if it was zoomed out slightly. Great job overall though!

Cute little car game! Love how the playerr was thrown into the game immediately, but it wasn't overrwhelming. Great graphics but I feel the UI could have been touched up a bit to match visual theme and maybe have a longer background track as the song can become tedious after a while.

Визуально привлекательная и интересная игра. Слегка надо усовершенствовать управление и клавиши. Well done!

I had a little trouble time with control (you can endlessly ride around each other in circles haha), but then it became fun. There's no menu in web version, that was very strange. Just WOW and you're right in the game. Visuals of the game is amazing! Oh, that train from the car, it's beautiful. The concept itself is cool, but at some point there were so many cars that they began to break each other. But it was fun :)

Nice art! It was hard for me to control the car, which made it hard to hit the other cars, but like the idea. Keep up the good work!
