The racing feels super nice and while I didn't really have my former selves interacting with me it was fun to interact with them >:)

Good amount of content and very enjoyable to sit down and play. Awesome job!

This was a fun racing game. It took me way too long to complete the first track. It is nice that there are multiple tracks included too. Lots of content in this. Are the items useful on the first lap? It seems they are only useful for hurting the ghosts, which only appear after the first lap.

Well done! I had a lot of fun playing this. It is so well polished, one of the tracks I played didn't have too much opportunity to drift which made me sad because it is so fun haha. After playing mario kart my whole life, you tickled my brain when I was drifting and got that bonus similar to mario kart, I really did get genuine enjoyment from playing this for a while! Give my game a try if you'd like, also a hover car type racing game, but definitely not as polished as yours

Glad you had fun! That's a totally fair criticism regarding track 2. It used to be more curvy,  but it underwent a lot of iteration to get the branching paths, ramps, and upside down loop working. Somewhere along the line it got a little bit too straight, haha. Lesson learned for next time, gotta let the player drift!

When I saw the ghost rider I was like "oh neat an AI opponent" and then on the third loop after it stole the powerup I was like HEY WAIT A MINUTE

Great vibes, controls are nice, vfx gives that flow speed feel

Banger. Cool idea, looks great, fun to play.

This was awesome! Incredibly polished for a four-day project. I don’t think I even properly saw a lot of the detail put into the environment, given how fast-paced the gameplay is! The only snag I ran into was my car sometimes drifting in the opposite direction to what I wanted. That might have been down to the order I hit the keys in, though. I suspect the game probably feels a bit better on gamepad, so maybe I’ll try it with that at some point.

I was able to complete the first two races, but struggled with the third. I kept running out of fuel on the last lap. I was trying my best to avoid fuel pickups on earlier laps to leave them open, but the hitboxes are generous and the track is often thin… so, unfortunately, if there were more races after that one, I didn’t get to see them.

Woooowwww the visuals on this one are great!! I love this type of games. It feels so clean also. Great job!

Very well executed! Feels like a complete and polished game. I really enjoyed trying to distinctly make each lap a little different so that I could make a tactic to beat shadows in later laps.

Cool racing game idea! Having to strategize with your racing line so that you can go fast without following the exact same path was hard - I'm gonna have to come back later to try completing the full 5 laps!

Nice race game !

That's cool I like that the game wants you to go fast but you have to think about how you beat the next lap

Amazing game! It felt phenomenal to play, which is testament to the mechanics of the game itself, as well as the very, very nice coat of paint it's got with the graphics and music.
