Maybe I would end with another scene and some music in the background. The collision physics were pretty sweet.

Fun to play overall!

Love the scene! I couldn't quite work out how the points worked but I enjoyed elbowing a few scrap seeking hobos all the same :laughing:

At first I didn't understand it was a race game x) But at the end I was like "Oh ok that's how it goes" and replayed it. I finished first on second round so I was pretty proud of myself :p

Overall the game is fine looking, the graphics are cool though I think I would have loved some animations :D

Great job !

I love the graphics! Really well done there. Once I understood that it was a race I just started skipping the first trash can, taking the buff from the second one, and taking the scraps from the rest. :smile: Nice entry!

Very nice implementation of the theme. I also had to think a little on how it worked, but I got there.

--> I mainly came to say: you are very good at pixel art! <--

@maggardjosh @bazld @enver-arco Thanks guys! I'm a programmer, not pixel art artist :smile: This is my 4th maybe 5th art. :pencil2:

Neat game and good take on the theme. The art is funny (as is the overall concept), and the mood is generally goofy.
At first I didn't know I was racing, but I got the hang of it pretty quickly. I also think the stats after each race could be either consolidated (instead of showing all scores separately after each race), or they could be formatted and broken out a little more clearly.
Nice job on this entry!

Looks pretty great, however, adding sound can go a long way in a project.

this was fun for a bit -- nice graphics and idea -- nice game

Lovely simple graphics and a nice simple idea, though more than often I'd just win because the other two got stuck in each other or pushed each other that much and I could just press the right key and win.

Just a note: You might want to update the controls listed in the description! Says that F is for taking the scraps and D is for using "the buff" but it's actually the other way around in game.

Not sure why trash gives me a speed boost but oh well!

@manimal Thanks for your feedback. Yes, I agree the scene is a bit raw. This is my first jam and my level is low.
