Yeapee!! I got to play it.


Now, Let's see. it was fun, though my best score is only 95. Maybe be, because I was not daring enough to go full throttle in the rainy night.  It was a fun racing game. 

Here are some suggestion:

1) The visibility is annoying (I understand that you want the element of surprise, but maybe you could lower the camera angle a little bit. That would give the player a little bit of window to react, when moving fast.)

2) This might be a bug, when we collide with an obstacle/wall/Digitized pillar or whatever it was, the car/spaceship wasn't able to take damage with a few others obstacle after it. (Are you using triggers as obstacles, instead of Rigidbody. Maybe so, but it should be able to take damage through consecutive obstacles.)

3) You could add some collectibles which could improve the condition of the super"car".

Note:  This suggestion are just based on my experience and taste, and what I felt would be feel better to play.


Overall, I had fun playing it.

Good feedbacks, 

1)I already have the project since i reworked the game to have one camera view by historic period. I am not sure that full throttle give a real bonus (but it helps you with the jump, because when you will go down  you will need to be at the good place  and you can also fly  over the little buildings). The jump is a good way to have a large field of view.

An old test on the first version of my game and the field of view of my previous game.

2) The games is even harder, with no invincibility frame : I created a little shield to show the invincibility frame but the shield appears only 3
seconds so i decided to no put the shield in game (but the shield works fine). Problem: The buildings have multiple colliders and in the second time period you will hurt multiple obstacles at the same time.

3)Very arcade idea, I am not a fan of floating bonus in the scene. Maybe I will aim for gadgets that need energy (so that need the player to  wait before using it again) , but i am sure at all that my idea worth it. You already have the jump that needed to wait for recharging (i don't know if the player hear the recharging sound), i was more focusing on this kind of bonus. All the feedbacks are welcome however

4)  I am in the polishing of the game for the player experience part. As you can see above i had to do choices so i have not used all the features i created for the game.  I will do a synthesis of player experiences.  With score at 95 you only see 1/3 of the game  :) it's easier when you access the second zone with score at 140 you have a little break . I think i go through the night part by slowing down when i need, so yes don't go full throttles in the night (if you are not flying), you instinct was good. Happy to learn that you are not a kamikaze.

Edited message: Someone else had troubles? : I changed the menu a little by adding a "New game" Button: so one problem solved.

Sorry, My friend but I wasn't able to play your game I have downloaded it, But it is not working for some reason. It just got stuck on the introduction screen. None of controls were working. It was stuck exact at position of your first screen of the game catalog.  You should give some kind of start button to let the player(user) know that it is his/her fault for not being able to play the game. But, I couldn't find out the start button, it would be very guiding if you put a simplistic button. 


About the graphics, it was all looking good. It was almost a tease that I didn't get to play. :)  

I am not sure this problem is only happen to me, so can you please try to download and check that whether the game is working on downloading.  Looking forward to playing it.

You need to click on one of the two blue square. I had the intuition that it could be a problem but i was not sure. The "endless version" blue square was suppose to be obvious, at the bottom left. So it's the blue square at the bottom left, to start the game. I will change that in 3 hours.

Menu Improved. And my best score at the same time. Ready for all feedbacks. All the Boxes with text are button even if only the " Start a new game" buttons and the "Quit game" button are really used like that. Maybe the default buttons of the game engine (unity) are a little too simple. Best score is not a button any more.
