Ram or Be Rammed by korfi
There's always a bigger fish in the sea, to eat or to be eaten.
In Ram or Be Rammed you need to delay the big bad truck from ramming you for long enough for you to pick up all the upgrades to your vehicle. Once you're bigger than the truck it's your turn to ram it. One thing is for sure, a crash between the two vehicles is inevitable, can you prolong it long enough and find all the upgrades before it's too late?

My one criticism would be that some times it was hard to find upgrades on the symmetrically shaped arenas. Maybe you could color the different sides of the arena so you can distinguish what parts of the map you have already gone to, in order to make it easier to find out where the upgrades might be.
Liked it.
Good job!
The art is pretty clear, sounds were helpful but I would've liked a 'truck is approaching' noise when he gets closer for extra dread. The music sounds a bit randomized and doesn't really suit the gameplay though.
Not great on theme, but a fun game to play.
Some more texture on the sphere/donut would be great for people like me who tend to get motion sick from games with heavily moving camera ;)
@3bt Thanks for your feedback, I definitely agree that a way to distinguish where you've picked up the upgrades would've been good, especially on the bigger levels! I'm happy you liked the game :D
@mimusangel @escarpoulpe Thank you for your feedback! The thinking regarding the theme was that a crash between the two vehicles would be inevitable and by delaying the (inevitable) crash for long enough you'd come out stronger than the enemy in the end. I do agree that we could've tied in the theme more however! Thank you both for your feedback and I'm happy you enjoyed the game :D
...I SAY simple, but I can't imagine how much work it must've taken to have mix car physics with Mario Galaxy physics. O.o
I think the tiny planets really add a lot to the gameplay, though! Not knowing exactly where the enemy truck is at all times add a lot of great tension and comedic moments. I really enjoyed this one!
