WOW these turn physics feel fantastic once you get a hand of the controls (Turning relative to your car without camera motion can be very tricky, but the lack of camera movement did make it a lot easier to learn the map layout, in fairness), that said, it was kind of annoying needing to slowly back out of a wall when I inevitably crashed - perhaps the car could slide along the wall a little while moving forward (Looking at the car physics you sourced, I think this could be done with some adjustments to slope physics). Obviously this can do with some more visuals & sound design, just a couple additions from some premade asset packs or royalty free artists would go a long way - but I think my main suggestion would be some quality of life tweaks - perhaps a lap counter, minimap, per-lap timer, or maybe some indicator for how I'm getting points? All that said, this is a first game, and I'm impressed you took on a game jam for a first released project. Good work, please keep making things.

Fun! On the third lap I really started to lock in; don't think I bumped into a single wall the whole lap. Wish I could see my lap times.

Thanks for playing!
Really cool to hear that the flow clicked for you.
Lap times are a great idea and would definitely add some replay value — I’ll keep that in mind for future updates or next projects!

solid submission, as another similarly said, the walls being slightly bouncier and more slippery would improve the flow, i like the overall design tho, nice work!

Would've loved if the game had more juice and feedback, like having the car bumping into walls feel more satisfying!

If this is your first game, then good job!
...and welcome to the grind!

Thanks a lot for playing and for the feedback — I really appreciate it!
You're absolutely right — more juice and satisfying feedback (especially on collisions) would definitely make the game feel more alive.
I’ve learned a ton during this jam, and I’m looking forward to improving on things like that in my next projects.

Thanks again — and I guess I’m officially in the grind now! :D
