Presenting the LD31 entry that will take you the least amount of time to play! And it's HTML5 only, so playing it is really easy as well!
One Screen Racer is an overhead time trial racer in the spirit of Super Sprint. Can you win the gold trophy?
I wrote the physics from scratch, which was probably a mistake, but it was an interesting project. I spent a lot of time making a game that would allow additional track creation easy - but ended up not having enough time to create any additional tracks. A lot of recorded sound and music is missing as well. Watch out for the post-competition version though!
Yes, the source is all on my github under the OverheadRacer.gmx file. You don't need GameMaker to read it but it will help. I'm pretty sure the free version should compile and run this game fine and make it easy to view all the objects.
Just FYI I will make a blog post in the future addressing the physics, which are really simple but also quite flexible.

Ah, my bad! I was looking at the OverheadRacer.js file. Thanks! Promising demo, I'm looking forward to your post-compo version
nice driving mechanics, good job! :) it's a shame that the game itself seems to be somewhat unfinished for now. also, i'd appreciate if it was possible to move reverse when needed.
This is agate that can really be expanded upon! As a fan of racing games, I loved it, the drifting physics are so much fun. You calibrated the driving controls real well!
I will say, tone down the grass slow down though, make it still slow down, but not so sudden.

It need more contents and better graphics to be awesome !
If not, could you write a bit about the physics and the resources you've used?
