An interesting idea, but it's quite difficult to choose the type of rails, it's better to put them on top of the screen.

Really fun game with interesting mechanics! The levels provided a good challenge.
 I wished it was a bit clearer which number corresponded to which track being placed but on the other hand trying to find the right track in time made it fun.
Well done!

The game went off the charts (pun intended) on the immersiveness. although the absence of a menu that shows which key corresponds to which track really broke my immersion. my game has this “god mode” that is there for the noobs if they are too bad at the game. maybe you can add smt similar

Too hard game :D

Like others, I'd prefer something that indicates which track each key corresponds to. This fix would help to make the focus more on rapidly placing tracks and making sure not to override other tracks, which is where the fun resides.

Cool use of the theme, smart gameplay and concept, only thing that I would like to see added is a ui where you can see what button gives you what track (or did I just miss it?). other than that, this game deserves more reviews.

I like the mechanics and the concept, I think it's fun to complete the levels. But I think the rail types should be visible so I know which one to take specifically. I found it very complicated to search for the rails I wanted with the keys. But despite that, it's a great job! :D

Good game i really like the mechanics and the concept tho

dude what can I say, trains, trains???? Trains are cool 🕶️. I think the animations for the train moving and the track placement felt really intuitive and clean. Shortfalls might be just interesting obstacles (my game has a tree and a rock so I’m a hypocrite XD), also sound could have used something extra for train moving and placing tracks clicks. Overall great project!

Fun concept but a hotbar to choose between track types would have been much preferable to scrambling to try and remember which track was which key, I did love the art though very cute.
