Very cool and unique idea with generating a PNG of the trail!  \n\nFor collecting points, I preferred to drive backwards, I found the fluid physics were much easier and more fun to control, if you're going for points. Here's my backwards image:  \n\n![trail_capture_backwards_drifting_for_score.png](\/\/\/raw\/11c\/d\/z\/6f301.png)  \n\nBut driving forwards was also super fun because of the speed. The objects in the map were fun to use as ramps, especially when I nailed the landing :) I think it would be even more fun, if I could better control getting clean landings more consistently! I loved racing around the map in large circles, trying to round the corners without crashing into the walls haha Sadly the generated image for this seems to not quite capture the whole map, you can see the corner trails and a lot of edge trails are missing:  \n\n![trail_capture_forwards_racing_along_borders.png](\/\/\/raw\/11c\/d\/z\/6f303.png)  \n\nHad a lot of fun riding around, and the trail colors changing over time also helped with fun and to keep the visuals interesting :) Cool game!","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":1179000,"author_name":"Yueyang Tian","author_uid":"yueyang-tian","epoch":1760104912,"text":"An interesting game!
