Nice idea! I had fun trying to beat my best time. I would appreciate to know how the controls are going to change in advance so you can adapt more easily to the new scheme.

I had a blast with the changing controls. When the racers all burst from the starting line into barricades, I chuckled. I like the challenge of figuring out new controls at each checkpoint. 

some bugs: The sound upon completing the level seems to not be functioning as intended and blasted my headphones, and I found it possible to escape the barricades and the boundaries of the map.

A lot of the time, I couldn't even tell my controls, which left me confused and unable to really play the game. Also, my ears were bombarded with a really loud noise after completing a level. Overall, unfortunately, more infuriating than challenging.

This was a fun and energetic arcade like game that felt straight out of Mario party! It was chaotic and energetic the whole way through. One criticism I had for the game (don't worry, I still loved it) was that there was no warning for when the controls switch. Other than that, I would be gladly willing to purchase it once it got a bit more polish!
