I'm not entirely sure what the goal of the game is, and it took me quite a while to figure out how to make the race start at all. I think I'm betting on a racer and then sabotaging the others, but I seem to just get money randomly anyway, or when I pick up a banana peel, so I'm not sure what the point is?

Feels like it could be interesting if the controls were a bit more obvious and easy to use, and if the betting worked the way I'd have expected it.

Anyway, an interesting entry, if a bit hampered by control issues.

This is a game similar to horse racing, but you can throw banana peels to hinder your opponents. The steps are very simple:
1. Place banana peels on other players' tracks to make them slip.
2. Choose your favorite player by clicking them.
3. Don’t forget to collect banana peels along the way when the race starts, and you can also obstruct other players during the race.
4. Enjoy the relaxed QTE as you watch your favorite player run to the finish line.

P.S. The Mickey character is quite amusing; he’s always crying, and I keep letting him win.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere, animations and sounds of this game. You really get the feel and mood of an arena across and I loved the artstyle. The controlls could have been explained better, or at least on this or the itch page. And I was never really sure how you actually succed at jumping the rocks, sometimes I did and other times not.

Also can you win in any way or is it only survive for as long as possible?

I really liked the Sprites. The Animations and especially the design of the runners.

I'm getting banana peels by randomly clicking on the crowd, the indicators don't seem to actually be pointing at the right spot for it. Occasionally the whole game would randomly restart. The art and vibe is great, I guess I just don't really understand what the game is.

The art is excellent, I love the concept. The game didnt make it mega clear what I needed to do next but once I worked it out we were flying.

I like the concept! Admittedly I needed @cromwell 's comment to figure out what to do. Getting bananas I'm assuming I had to buy them from the crowd? It didn't work all the time though so I could be wrong. The art was awesome though, would love to see more! 做的很好!!

@jaco-van-hemert Thank you very much for your playtest! We've now updated to a new version, and it should perform better!
@glassar Thank you for your kind words! In fact, this is a mini-game that doesn't require much interaction. Winning or losing doesn't matter; just place your bets and enjoy watching the little creatures get squished into juice!
@rsheepdv 可能是分辨率有点问题，我也有时会操作无效(。_。)。

Loved the art style and animation a lot, but it wasn't clear what game is about or can I even control my contestant, if not it is just pure random. Crowd was heard but background music was laking. Overall can become a good one evening game on steam with some work done. Good job!

I love the variety of the characters! The game is fun though sometimes, it doesn't seem clear whenever you can receive a banana peel or not (sometimes, I click on the crowd, and sometimes I can spam it to receive a banana peel, and sometimes I can't receive any)

@artallester Thank you for playing! Each little creature actually has its own traits in the design, but time was limited, Just creating these animations has already exhausted me! We’ll definitely make it happen later! The music will be coming soon too!

I really love the art. The style is cute and a little bit terrifying. But I am not sure what I supposed to do when I start the game.....

@alwayshungry Thanks for the comment, Once you enter the arena, just click on any little creature to place your bet and start the race.

Very cute but at the same time scary graphics! I had some trouble getting the game to fit on my 13" macbook screen but I managed and scored a win in my first race. It was all downhill from there. :sweat_smile: The Tinysonic TV was a nice touch. Good job team!

This is such an interesting and enjoyable interpretation of the theme, honestly I really loved this.

I quite like that I don't have to do too much, and can just recline back and interfere with the other contestants. The reclined gameplay is a thumbs up from me.

I did find the click boxes to select your racer were a little big maybe? For example when I was clicking on the last row, it would often choose the 4th. Not a big deal really in the grand scheme of things.

The art is really great and the only thing it needs is some light music!

Thank you, what a nice, light polished entry :).

It took me a minute to figure out the controls and what to do, but I love everything about this. It was fun, silly, and animated well.

The creature designs are really great, it's too bad I can't buy any of that juice near me.

Can you tell me exactly what it tastes like? I imagine it's blueberry flavored.
