You've just completed a mission deep in the heart of Berlin.

* Make your escape via the heavily-guarded Autobahn.

* Keep your speed up to confuse the German machine-guns.

* Watch out for the tar-traps and blockades.

Control scheme is a little involved, but it's not a racer. Try jumping!

No sound/music sorry. Ran out of time.

The source is a Unity project. Extract it to a folder and open that folder in Unity if you need to look at the source.

I like the idea, it reminds of the Need For Speed quarter mile races.

Also, took me a while to figure out how to accelerate. That instruction needs to be bigger :-)

Good game. I especially liked it because most of the other games were 2-D platformers. Reminds me of Crazy Taxi, but with a twist. Bravo!

Awesome work. My only complaints would be not being able to control your jump mid-air and that the machinegunners were a bit cheap.

Aside that, very very good work here!

Good stuff!

Those tarpits are monstrously deadly.

After I finally noticed that you can accelerate with W it was really fun. ^^

Liked the general idea of the gameplay. Jumping motorcycles ftw :)
Audio would have been great. It took me some time to get that the reason I died was because of a machine gun :)

W made it exciting! Reminds me of an excitebike on rails. This could a lot of fun.

Very nicely done, love the high speed driving. Terrain and road could use a little variety. Jumping to the side while holding arrows would also make gameplay easier. I am unsure what I'm escaping and why, and how the game is central to the theme?

Awesome! My play style is just to hold W all the time cause it's more fun that way. :D I'd like some more variation later on in the game, but the game does well.

I kept jumping over barricades and straight into tar haha, a single jump button(direction controlled with movement keys) would have been slightly more manageable.
