I can play these kinda games for hours lol. Sometimes you can get into situations with no way out, especially in the slow lane, maybe a permanently empty lane in between each lane so there's always a space to safely move into, but those lanes don't give the player any score (or maybe even remove score if you drive in them for too long) could be a solution. The hit boxes are too big and seem inconsistent, for a game like this I think you should make the hit box for the player slightly smaller than the actual player sprite so the player feels like they are pulling off some close calls (could even include a combo bonus for chaining together close calls). Having this game in portrait orientation would be better because you'd be able to see further ahead and have more time to react to incoming cars, currently if you are moving fast, especially in the fast lane, there is almost no time to react. Also I should be able to press play with the space bar from the main menu so I don't have to keep switching from keyboard to mouse and back, but that isn't a huge issue. Overall I had fun playing this, and with a few small changes I think this could be a really fun game, nice work
I LOVED THE LITTLE THINGS LIKE THE CAR CHANGING COLOUR AND I LIKED THAT YOU COULD CONTROL THE SPEED OF THE CAR, AN END GOAL WOULD BE NICE :D
Audio is too loud, especially the sound effect for speeding up.
Moving the car feels almost too responsive and the hitboxes are too big. Also I don't really see how it fits the theme? It's not a bad game on its own, but it doesn't explore the theme very well, and needs some polish.
I like how moving the car feels, and the death sound is satisfying.
The sound effect for going forward is a bit loud and jarring.
It feels good to scrape by hitting a car just barely. Nice work.
I saw the YouTube video on your profile. You are a fairly experienced developer. Publish games that can be played in the browser, choose the right idea and win the next jam, for this you have all the skills. Go.
Not a bad game.
I’ll be real with you: I’m not going to install a game for a jam. I’ll play every web build, and maybe I’ll play games that I can download and just run from a directory, but installing a .pkg is too much from a developer I don’t know. Sorry, but good luck!
In the meantime for people like you that don't want to install unknown games (I understand), I compiled a web version for you; https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/939791
