Developer

Yes, we opted for a retro feel. Voxel art made that easy. Thanks for the comment! What was your high score?

Submitted

So fun. I've never realized how much I needed to squash chicks in a van.

Developer

Yes, who knew running over voxel art animals could be so enjoyable? Thanks for the comment. Glad you enjoyed our weird little game.

thanks for the opportunity to connect with my inner-voxel-self. i'll take the special, hold the feathers.

Developer

Haha at the Road Kill Cafe, we aim to please. Thanks for checking out the game!

Submitted

I had a tremendous amount of fun playing this game. I loved the art, loved the sound, and most importantly loved smashing chickens.

Developer

Wow, thanks for the comment. I'm stoked you enjoyed playing the game!

Submitted

A nice fun little arcade game with one of the goofiest backstories, I need to have me some road kill cafe food!

Submitted

That was fun and the artstyle is on point!

Meow this is the kind of comment I like. CATegorically awesome. Absolutely PURR-fect.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. And, cool avatar you cool cat.

Really enjoyed drifting into a group of chickens. 

Developer(+1)

Awww, your desire to run over innocent chicks warms the cockles of my heart. Thanks for the comment!

As a complete sucker for humor in games, this one spoke to me. It also reminds me of the good old days of playing Twisted Metal as a kid. It's a very simple game, as a jam game should be, and easily among my favorites.

Developer

Ahhh, yes, the good old days... I recall, with great pleasure, smashing into my opponents on a freeway free for all. Good times.

By the way, thanks for the comment! I'm glad we could ignite the nostalgia in your soul.

This game made my a psycho the amounf of animals i ran over. Nice simple concept and was well polished and felt smooth. nice music too to compliment. Great submission was fun to play

Developer

Your psychopathy is welcome in the world of Smashimals. You have arrived. You are home.

Thank you for your comment! I'm glad you enjoyed it... and the polka music too. I finished the submission at 3 am. For some reason, polka music just resonated with me in the witching hour.

Nice game. Camera could be placed a little further :)

Developer

Thanks for the comment and feedback! I agree the camera could be further away -  the game would benefit from further tuning. We elected to keep it a bit tighter for the jam so you could fully experience the epic voxel explosions.

Submitted

I'm gonna guess that your thought process for the theme was "ah yes, connection, like when you run over someone your car connects with them" lol

All around a really fun game for something that at it's core is quite simple.

The truck feels really nice to drive and the design of it is amazing!

Great game and great job! :D

Developer

We may have taken the theme too literally haha. When I thought connection, my brain went to impact, contact, and connecting in a physical sense... as in the bumper of an out-of-control food truck connecting with the bodies of innocent little chicks.

Thank you for the comment. It was a pleasure to make!

The poor chicks! lol (Looks over at her own chickens outside "Don't worry you're safe here!") Gave me flashbacks of a 90's screen saver that was a lawn mower that mowed the lawn but ended up running over kittens. Yes was a rather dark screen saver lol.

Developer

Sounds epic! Thanks for the review!

Submitted

You can do donuts, its a yes from me.

Developer

Donuts with a purpose!

Submitted

Cool voxel art. Truck handles nicely as well:) Not a fan of killing animals :(

Thanks for playing! To be clear, no animals were harmed in the making of this video game! 😊

Submitted

The handling of the truck felt very nice, almost as nice as decimating the little chicks, good job!

Developer

Decimating... what a perfect word to describe the gameplay! Thanks for the comment!

Submitted

loved the truck asset plus it felt good to drive, felt kinda bad about killing those birds! 

Developer

Thanks for the comment. And, the birds aren't dead... they're just... sleeping?...

Submitted

It's funny to play! Good game!

Developer

Thanks for your comment! Glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted

I really like the voxel graphics.

Developer

Sweet. It was a blast to make.

Thanks for your comment!

Submitted

Very funny and the sound of the small chicken make me loath all time. Great job 

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Who would have thought running over a chick could be so satisfying. Thanks for your comment.
