How does your game fit the theme?
I wanted to use the theme 'Out of Control' as the theme of the game, hence runaway train, but also make the player feel that as the game progresses they will find it harder and harder to exert control. (Also apologies we did not have time to add audio to our submission)

Pretty fun idea. It was pretty hard to see the grass/leaves. They blend into the background pretty easily. I liked how simple it was to understand and quickly get into the action. Might have been a better user experience if you didn't have to go back to the main menu every time you died.

17 is the record to beat, post if you do :)

nice :)

Is pretty extendable. You can make it a lot better. Would be a fun mobile game.

A solid start. I think it would be more fun with a couple different track layouts, and maybe ramp up the train speed as you move through levels
