What a view distance ! Think to make its higher the next time. Well executed though, but I do not fing the link with the theme. Quite good graphism, even if the car seems to be with plastic dough x) Great sounds too.

I am quite direct in my sayings, but for a first game, that is more than "good" ! Keep working on games and hope see you for the next LD !

My high score was 800 :)

Nice audio track, clean graphics.

Probably left corner is not best place for high score. Wouldn't be better to put it somewhere under car?

Very simple game, that, sadly, turned out not really impressive. It lacks some originality and I don't really get, what's the take on a theme.

But to improve game as it is, I would recommend to give players a little more time at the beginning to figure out what's going on. I crashed before I knew it at the first time.

Overall, the game is simple, it works and it is kinda fun to play for a little while.

Beat is the most memorable part of it! I feel like controls should be more responsive with less inertia for that type of gameplay and music. Still, good work, it's a pleasant experience. Also didn't see any theme-related elements, though.

Nice graphics and audio. I can't see how the theme is fit.
Controls are good but the view distance is really short.

My highscore was 995 !!

Great job for a first. Keep going this way :)

Certainly not bad for a first time :slight_smile:

Maybe you could shorten the death-animation/sound? It seems quite long given how quickly you can die.

Wow, for the first game jam ever, you nailed it! Compared to when I did my first ever, you are a professional hahah
One thing that is easy to fix and it will make your game looks a lot better is to uncheck the midmap settings from your textures, it's in the import settings.
But overall, good job!

Chunky colourful graphics are always nice to see, and I liked the slow motion when you crash!

Really simple graphics, but they are not bad. The music is nice and fit the mood. I don't know how the theme fits in though. Also, it's pretty unforgiven, but that's okay. Great job!

Very simple and basic game. The graphics could have been a little more polished, but the audio works very well for the game. Although I don't know if the game is really fitting for the theme.
But the slow motion effect is cool :3

On many trials my car started by flying and looping around, I don't know if that was intended but it was funny ^^ Simple but clear graphics, good balance and fitting audio ! Good job :)

Easy to get into and kind of fun to play, but yeah, no real connection to the LD theme.

Your graphics look very cool and gameplay is smooth. Music fits well and controlling the car is comfortable. The music is cut off a bit harsh when the game ends and having Restart on a keyboard button would be nicer.

Fun to play, well polished. As previously stated in other comments, the connection with the theme is a bit weak, but excellent work for a first game!

I really enjoyed the audio.

The game itself is a bit rough sometimes as collisions are not very forgiving with the controls (it's pretty hard to go from one side to the other and not hit something).
Graphics are cool. They're pretty simple but it works with the game.

Congratulation on your first entry ! Keep up the good work !

There is one thing a I really like it. This kind of games usually uses lines and you switch from one line to another one with just oone tap. This is not the case and I enjoyed a lot more than those kind of games.

Good job!

Not bad for your first jam. The graphics were the strongest point for this game, and everything else just kinda fell short. No tutorial or instructions, and the game kinda just begins without warning. It gets a little boring after a while; I would suggest adding new kinds of obstacles to spice it up a bit. Still, good for your first time, and keep making games!

I love the game but i ran into a bug after my 4th attempt shown in the screenshot above.
Besides the bug i find the game very fun to play and is quite addictive and i love the graphics as well. Well done.

@ghostrunners25 i know this is a bug in this game i dont know why is this happening but i will certainly look into it

Didn't really see the theme reflected in this game, but great gameplay overall! Could do with a little polish in the GUI but pretty good game overall.
