  • Nice idea, it could become a good game with more work. Some notes: - Graphics are pretty! I like the cats :) - Credits option doesn't work. - It's hard to know when you're making damage to other cars and when not. - I've tried the multiplayer mode, but it crashed with a butano error message. - You're using Varooom 3D music without giving credit or posting its license (https://github.com/GValiente/butano/blob/master/games/varooom-3d/credits/music.txt). It would be nice if you could add it.
  • Great concept! I think with a little extra work and some other gameplay features like powerups, this could be an excellent multiplayer game!
  • This is a fun concept and the art is well drawn, unfortunately it is held back by a few polish issues, for example the options page has the brightness and audio options reversed and opponent vehicles all seem to use the same car sprite but different offscreen character icons. The arena battles work nicely, for some improvement I'd suggest having a visual indicator that lets you know if the boost is ready.
  • Controlling the cars was pretty difficult, but I absolutely loved the characters! The ambition of going for link cable multiplayer is commendable, it's a shame it's buggy in it's current state but I hope you're able to make it work in the future!
  • The controls aren’t polished enough. Sometimes the car gets stuck in a collision with other cars and you instantly lose.

They're classy cats, and the way the game is made makes you want to play it again! Instinctively, I pressed the A key to try and send a booster shot to knock out the others.

I think the graphics are great, the music choice is excellent, and I love the idea. I can tell there's some intention there as to what the game should be, and I think this would turn into a really sick multiplayer game once it's got some more features/polish put into it :)

I can't tell how to do anything in the menu with the car parts. Also the game starts me off facing a wall.
