The driving in the game feels really fun even if I'm absolute dog at it. I also love the visual style but I do wish there was a way to find your way back to the hospital as I kept getting lost.

I like the atmosphere of the game, the driving is pretty well done, a bit slow when backing the car. The ghost would be better visualize if it a bit constrast than the background, it kinda blends in. I love the light that kill the ghosts, but the ghost mostly attacking from the back making it a bit useless, may be a red light on top of the ambulance that do a circle kills ghost would be really fun too.
The game was nice. I'm not so sure how the limitation was used, though. The music and the assets you chose work nicely together but I think the game was too hard for me since the car movement was really hard to get used to.
like what 杏子シオリ said, I encountered a bug while playing that made the ambulance go under the map when getting too close to the hospital.
Overall, the game was interesting and cool.
If you have time to check my game out as well I would really appreciate it :D
I really liked this game! Pretty fun and addicting, plus the graphics look awesome and the limitation was well implemented! Great job! :D

Nice game. I encountered some bugs while playing the webgl version though.
This brings me back to when I used to drive an ambulance around the city at night at reckless speeds with the headlights off, only flicking them on briefly to scare off the ghosts.
This was a lot of fun and a great take on the limitation!
The driving felt pretty good, and the concept is also very unique, although it took me a minute to understand what I was supposed to do.
After I got the hang of it, I had quite a bit of fun driving around avoiding ghosts, but I think an indicator for when the citizens will turn into a ghost would've been nice. Overall, nice game!
the driving was nice, would have been nice to have a minimap, dont know exactly how deaths affect more than the player? Maybe a bit more of a signal or some sort of information that lets the player know when a citizen died, would help show the limitation stronger. Other than that, the game is good.
If possible, can you please rate my game? Thanks in advance
Really cool game and the web build works fine, the only difficult part for me was finding the hospital but I think that adds an extra level of challenge but if you wanted to fix it, you could do that by making more memorable buildings.
