Amidst the pushy crowd, passengers seem to defy physics, sliding through the air while seated or teleporting from one seat to another in the midst of an ever-intensifying herring party. Seems impossible, but you're not the least bit surprised. This is just another wild ride on the public transport bus, and you can join the madness โ€“ as long as you've got a valid ticket.


Remember to validate your ticket before the inspector catches you, and make your move when it's time to disembark.

Use the Arrows or WASD keys to navigate the chaos as the limited space around you shrinks even further.


Buckle up and prepare for the journey of a lifetime, because on these buses, we been bussin.

just as in real life. find the last working ticket validator in the back of the bus and then enjoy the rest of the ride at the very front window, ignoring all other guys in the back...

Even more passengers would add to the experience. The game looks and sounds nice, gameplay was pretty simple. Enjoyed the humor, nice job!

The true bus experience.

Had to turn off audio due to some weird stutter. I'm playing on Firefox 118.0.1 (64-bit) on Arch Linux.

Funny and simple game, embodied the bus experience perfectly

I love the presentation and overall mood of the game - it's not the most intense gameplay but the premise and execution are very charming. Maybe adding more exits over time or other ways to fail would make it more challenging - but I enjoyed it regardless.

? I tried a couple of time but didn't get it. I validate my ticket and then what? A tutorial would have been nice to help players. I mean, the game seems decent on a technical level but I really have no idea what I am supposed to do. So pretty hard to do a realistic rating... Nice work on the bus simulation anyway!

That rating should get you out of the danger zone. Took me a few runs to figure out what I was doing wrong, but finally got it. Hilarious entry. Seems pretty accurate simulation of mass transit if you ask me.
