It looks like a nice game, but unfortunately I was unable to play it because two vertical bars appeared at the start on top of the car and made it burst into flames. However, pressing Q, W, or E beforehand would warp the car offscreen and would make the level keep going.

That's really weird and thanks for reporting! was that at the start of a new game?

Yes, it happens every time. The two bars also appear on the car on the title screen.

This game is absolutely hilarious! Warping & stretching the car to extreme proportions was really fun. I'm mostly parroting what other comments have already said, but I think the game could be a bit faster as there were definitely some stretches were I was getting a bit bored, but I really love the core concept, and I think it's a fun game to just turn your thoughts off and have fun with.

I liked how the car squished but with was a bit slow. I also never felt like I knew when to use the Q, W, E keys

I'm glad you liked it! Good point, we really need to add a tutorial level to explain things better.  The Q, W, E keys are for getting extra coins on the obstacles where the coins are in 2 places at once or the line of coins is too wide for the car to hit all of them. Example below:

Squishing the car is very satisfying, especially the squeaky sound effect. I would have liked if it was a bit quicker paced. Nice job overall!

Space Displace
Reply
BumnuggetsDeveloper23 days ago

Thanks! Yeah we need to do some tweaking to get the pacing tightened up. We originally just picked 2 mins per stage for the sake of making the music and gameplay match up.

grapplSubmitted23 days ago(+3)

Haha I really like the way you squish the car. Loved the transition into space too, but it wasn't clear to me where the asteroids are vertically without a floor. Great game!

Doodle To Scale
Reply
BumnuggetsDeveloper23 days ago(+1)

I'm glad you enjoyed! Yeah, I think that contributes hugely to the big difficulty spike in the space stage. Maybe we need some kind of Luke Skywalker targeting computer to line things up. For now, we'll just have to use the force haha. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for commenting on the art! Texturing that car took longer than I'd like to admit, and your kind words make me feel like it wasn't a waste of development time :D

Really fun original game. I didn't realize you could mov too at first. Duh me. Maybe a health bar or someway to determine health. (The car on more and more fire)  No easy way around probably but I kept wanting to use WASD to move and the arrows to scale. Going to play some more :)

BumnuggetsDeveloper23 days ago(+1)

Glad you enjoyed it! We had some ideas for control schemes that we didn't get to test, but we hadn't thought of using WASD for movement and scaling with something else. Good idea! Thanks for the feedback!

I thought I was able to get through the game by being a little pancake car hahaha. I'm glad to see the variety in form and contortions of the car. Overall, great concept!
