A top-down racing game. See how fast you can complete the course.

Use the arrow keys to control your car.

My best is 43.825 seconds.

Nice! I like the big rectangular go light, and the border-bounce behavior works well. One quick bit of feedback: I was surprised by how slowly the tires turn, making it difficult to do an orientation maneuver alternating between backward-right and forward-left. (If you backward-right, then immediately try to forward-left, you'll end up going forward-right.) Thanks!

Very, maybe too, difficult to control.

This was a fun little racing game to play. I got lost under the bridge and eventually found my way out. The real gold was when I followed a link trail to your live coding video. Keep up the awesomeness.

That's right bro:
Your physics are awesome(if you write them).
I respect that you have used javasript.
Keep up the good work.

Hi there. Like the presentation as Mondrian... Like how the wheels look when steering. Got to end once but very slow. Quite hard to control. Shame no sound.

Respect on completing something in js in such a small amount of time.

Enjoyed it even though it was tough to control of the car

I think the problem with the controls is that you can only steer while you accelerate, but I'm not quite sure.

Simple idea that could be polished into a full game. Nice job.

It's a little bit hard to control the car when it turns. I like that you animated the turning of the wheels and the starting light to tell you when to go is pretty nice! I also like the overlapping part of the track. Well done!

A bit hard to control as everyone else is saying. Simple but very intuitive. Nice work!

The turning is wonky, but I like the simplicity of this.
