- Built with Godot. Assets created in Figma. - AI Transparency: We used AI to help with the code and some Godot busywork. - All game design, assets and sounds are human made. - The music is an asset from asset library.
Fun! the art was nice! would be great if the controlls were inside the game as well also, pressing ctrl while playing in the browser caused the page to move, maybe consider changing it to another key
A surprisingly interesting and approachable game that’s really easy to get into a flow state! The art, music, and gameplay work together beautifully, and the controls feel smooth. I really love all the ridiculous items. what feels better than using a camera to stun everyone just one metre before the finish line and snatch the victory? XD
What a funny concept, good job. Lovely art style and the selected music fits the theming nicely. The isometric camera was fun and annoying at the same time. It made the aiming a bit confusing time to time. Could be nice if the track was wider and the player moved a bit quicker side to side so that there would be more room for the gameplay?
I happen to win all the races on my first go and the items didn't feel that significant. Idk if there is some "catch up" mechanism but it kinda felt like it as a few times I felt really behind and then still ended up winning. Seems that just good cycling is the meta for winning.
The art style is fun and I really like the menu screen with the characters riding in the background.
Hehe, that was really fun! I absolutely love the atmosphere, the setting is perfect, and the insults are great!

I heard this one the most but there was def at least 1 other one (with the teapot xD) But I loved soooo much how the absolute donkey is pronounced!! xD
I did my best to beat those Sirs in each race, and though the Final had seen me defeated a few times, in the end I came out on top >:)
Though I came 2nd in the 2nd race (I think, or 3rd) and didn't replay it, the menu still shows my name in there (so ig it only shows the records of the Players, not NPCs)
Which is convenient. For me. Look how I dominated! xD
Overall, I had a great time with this game, it was fun, felt polished, flew by enjoyably, wasn't too difficult but not TOO easy (imo), the sound design and the atmosphere are great! I love the way the theme was represented, and the "gifts" are well thought through, keeping with the setting and also funny! I did notice Sir Elephant as well :) It seems like a good bit of devs are adding a nod to the "elephant in the room", makes me feel a bit sad I didn't do that xD
Also, I wanted to mention that I would love to use WASD control type, but since I am the only player, I automatically get the Player 1 controls. Maybe there is a way to choose and I missed it? But if there isn't, it would be a good QOL addition.
But ofc, overall, it's super polished and feels great and complete!
The theme of racing for tea at the Queen's table is a delightfully silly concept! The visual style perfectly captures the strange elegance of the penny farthings, and the races feel wonderfully competitive.

Thank you for your feedback, good to know. We've updated the controls and added right-shift as an alternative key :)
