The amount of high quality art assets is insane. Awesome colors, super readable sprites, and some of the coolest portraits I've ever seen.\n\nThe music is also top notch and gives a really fun Jetset Radio vibe. Impressive number of quality sound fx too.\n\nThe gameplay itself wasn't for me. I found the car insanely difficult to control and not in a good way. I was constantly getting stuck on anything that had collision. Would have really liked if you could just glide along walls instead of sticking to them. I get it is supposed to be chaotic and hard to control but I think it would have also been a lot more fun if the turning was slightly less sensitive.\n\nHowever, I did love the number of destructible objects that you could drive right through!\n\nOverall, super impressive submission for a game jam.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":966127,"author_name":"Rocket and Blanky","author_uid":"rocket-and-blanky","epoch":1683252405,"text":"This game kicks ass and has a great sense of humor.
