I think it's a good idea, but it needs a timer to limit the player and something like an arrow path or something like that. I'm lost and don't know where to go :D but keep to make it. :)

Fun, but REALLY tough! I think the collision damage is kinda overzealous - clipping on anything even slightly just kills a run as far as I can tell. Love the vibes and the gameplay though.

I love the idea to have a smooth trajectory. But it's really difficult.

I'm really impressed, this is great. The graphics are top notch, and the music and vibe are so chill. I'm also very impressed by the random generation, it felt varied every time. My one critique would be to be more forgiving on collisions - sometimes cars would just scrape me but I'd still take a full hit. I also think the drifting was a little too fast. But overall, amazing work on this!

This is an awesome concept. It's very unforgiving right now, though! An easier mode or easier level would be appreciated for people with subpar driving skills like myself. :laughing: I want to see the ending but I either run out of fluid or hit too many things.

The music and SFX really helped to set the proper mood. It really felt like driving downtown with precious cargo. I love the raccoon in the garbage bin, that was a cute extra touch!

Great job! :smile:

Fun game, simple concept but still original with the presentation. The hitboxes could be a little reworked, some collisions don't seem very fair, but the random generation works very well, it really feels like you're playing something different every time. It might be nice to add a meter to indicate how far you are from the goal, right now you never know if you're close or still very far.

Great job !

Man, this game is hard! :D
There was no collisions on some objects (like lamp posts). Also sometimes it wasn't clear how much "hp" does my passenger have.
But overall - great idea! *sips wine*

Is this what driving in New York is like? I beat it second try and then failed 4 times in a row. Game looks really great and the setting is fantastic, great work!

For the first few times I didn't realise there was an end condition. Think as a lot of other people have pointed out the controls and collisions made it difficult. Feel like with a few simple changes (making it slightly easier) it would play a lot better. Graphics, sounds and overall vibe were great.

Nice idea! I like the vibe, the music and the story! I'd love to see if there is any form of development, unfortunately, I was unable to progress in the game, it's just way to hard for me :(

I really liked the low-poly models and the music track is superb. Very atmospheric. Jumping on ramps is very fun. Drifting I didn't use all that much - I think it's a bit too harsh, produces more of a turn-in-place than a drift. I didn't like it much.

The intro cutscene is great - especially the portrait of our hero driver. Good work!

I got stuck in textures only once :grin: and finally managed to get my client to safety on my third try.

The gameplay is really fun! As a suggestion, it would be nice to have a sort of arrow or something to know where you need to go, or maybe a timer showing how much time left you have. The music was also great! Congrats

What a silly entry that gathered a few laughs :smile: The difficulty was quite high but after 5 attempts I finally delivered them successfully. The drifting was a little wonky and I found it easier to just slow down for the turns. Keep on making games!

Very difficult to control.
Wonderful music and low-poly graphics!

Fun game. I had a great time. Not so my passengers. But once I got used to the controls it went a lot better. And the music is just spot on

great graphics and audio. Gameplay was fun but the hitboxes and movement could use some work, idk how too describe it exactly but it often felt like i wasnt quite in control of my mistakes. But its still a very fun entry

I think the story idea for this is one of the most original I've seen this jam. I've never seen a story like this. I also liked that there wasn't a timer and it was just looking at the person's glass head in order to see how much time was left.

I thought the cars popping out of parking spots was a fun idea.

The vehicle was pretty difficult to control and I think it could use some tightening up.

Nice work! I always enjoy playing a driving game.

i thought i was driving around in circles at first several times before i realized the levels were procedurally generated and I was just seeing the same set of corners and parked cars a few times in a row

i loved the tunes and the aesthetic
