sometimes had an issue where the car would move by itself, not sure if this was supposed to happen or not

I like the way how you used the theme, but the concept of the game is already very popular, so I had to put your Innovation low. But I enjoyed it.

Nice and funny game.

I don't know if it is intentional, but my car alsways dreaged to the left while playing and so I always run out of money (Web).

After I downloaded the Win version it worked good.

I realy like the idea and especially the music. Nice job.

@cubicode @megan-kozun What version of the game were you playing when it was dragging to the left and/or moving by itself? Thank you for trying it out!

The concept is quite hilarious, but the car keeps driving by itself sometimes. Not sure if that's intentional? Anways, good entry. :)

@megan-kozun thank you. Yea my HTML exports only seem to like Firefox.

Yeah my game was doing that as well, but it apparently only works with Chrome lol

Nice graphics but a bit confusing what how it works, but fun to play even so!

I think it will be more resonable that I am the insurance company, so save lives will save my money directly

Like the artstyle and the music.
the car is a little to slow,
so you need a lot of luck.
webgl works in chrome just fine at me.

I liked the concept and design but the game was a bit too punishing and got frustrating. Since the car had one speed, it was basically up to chance whether you could make it to the people falling or not. I did like the mechanic of the line climbing or falling based on how many people you were saving, so that was cool but it was just weighted too much towards losing all of your money very quickly and I only made like a few dollars every round. Honestly, if you made the car just mouse movement, that would probably fix it.

Hilarious! And that's it :-D I mean the music and the mood you have set is just brilliant and of course there are few things there and there that could be better! But I think you nailed it! Great job and idea
