I actually had a lot of fun running people over. But dodging obstacles and collecting things was good as well!

I like that you can steer. Avoiding people is really challengeing and fun, but... had you thought about what if instead, you have to kill the people? That could be fun as well.

Overall I really enjoyed the game.

BTW if you could check out my game, that would be really cool.

I for some reason ignored the arrow and was a bit confused at first, but I got the hang of it. Other than the lack of audio it was a nice game, although it would'be been nice to have a bit more stuff to do than only look for the letters and avoid people, I don't know what but it'd be nice.

Good game

Good game, nice car movement, and it's quite a challenge to maneuver between all those people. Would love to have my game rated by you as well!

Your controls feel great. It's really fun to cruise around in that car.

Yeah I really enjoyed weaving around people but there doesn't seem to be much of an incentive. Your controls are absolutely great though. You got the feeling of drifting down to a t. I would reduce the number of people and increase the time you can spend in the minefield to make the game just a tad more forgiving.

Great feedback that I totally agree with. The game incentive is purely driven on arbitrary numbers which quickly makes the game dull. Thanks sir :)

Nice mechanics but i think that's a lot of people and also money doesnt do anything
For a first project thats a nice attempt but maybe you could add a little tutorial or something similar to it

Wanna play my game ?

It only costs 1 money to kill someone? Not too harsh :)

Nice concept although the car was a little hard to control meaning I kept hitting poor innocent people and lost after 1 day due to crippling debt :(
