WOW, the concept is awesome!
I really loved the drifting concept for "LOOP," and destroying the vehicle is a really great idea you came up with!
P.S.: If you would like to check out the game I worked on, I would be grateful 🙏 (In your free time of course)🙏

It’s super cool and I love the main game mechanic. It’s like mixing Pokémon Ranger with drifting, I absolutely loved it, but I’m so bad at it hahaha.
The visuals are top and the audio is great too, little bit hard for me, but i think its a me problem, im aweful at drafting in every single game, even mario kart^^’ Great work!
Wow, this game looks really good! I love the outline on the models and the saturated colors, everything pops and looks super stylized. I could not get a great grasp on the controls though, it got tough to circle around the trucks when there was enough room, even when trying to feather the gas. Fun game!
It was very cool, you made my fingers hurt, at first it seems unrealistically difficult, but when you get used to it, it's hard to stop!!!
Please rate my game! Thanks!
This game is brilliant! My friend and I have played it for HOURS. We got stuck on one level in hard-mode, and we even thought it was impossible. We eventually triumphed, and boy what a feeling! Good work, the game is so much fun, and it's so simple. A great reminder that game-design doesn't need to be super complex. Thanks for submitting!
I think I know what level you are talking about. I actually have forgotten to set the correct timer for it in hard mode. I didn't catch it until the end of the jam xD. I always thought it was impossible but you've proved me wrong.
Thank you for playing and thank you for your comment!
The level was a simple clump of trucks, no barriers or boosters. And honestly, we were both convinced it just wasn't balanced (which I guess turned out to be true). My friend wouldn't even take a bet for $20 that it was impossible, despite the fact that I had given up and he was just mindlessly trying to drift it haha. But eventually, he perfected his drift, and seeing it was possible, I did too! Honestly this was a lesson in so many things, all borne out of a goofy and simple game jam game.
Good idea, and I think the execution is pretty good. I like the option to lower the difficulty level. I struggled to get past some levels even on easy mode, so maybe I don't know drifting mechanics very well haha
This has to be one of the most polished and well made games I've tried from this jam. I love the art, the animations, the sound effects, the pixelated retro look and how everything blends in. Plus, it's so fun! Though I suck at racing games, I really enjoyed it! You should definitely keep working on this game and expand it, because it's sooo good!
Hell yeah, this game is SICK!!! That's what I expect from a drift game, cool music, nice sound effects, very addictive. I took a bit to get used to the controls but when I did, was awesome. you did such a great job! Well Done! Nice concept aswell!
This is an amazing game and it's criminal how few reviews this has. I loved every aspect of it. It was challenging in a good way, never felt unfair just felt like I needed to git gud.
Excellent work!
Oh so you release the acceleration to drift sharper turns? I wish I knew that when I was playing Mario Kart…
Thanks for teaching me, and thanks for creating!
Also your game concept is similar to this one, not made by me but by a few of my friends: Judicium Drift
Great idea to add the toggle for the camera lock! I was about to comment that I got motion sick when I realised I could disable it.
I love the style and juice of the game, but I couldn't get a hang of the gameplay itself too much.
I really want to love this. Looks great, and nice music, but the controls are too frustrating for me. I can't get my head around accelerating with A instead of Right Trigger, it feels like RT is standard for accelerate, and one of the buttons is handbrake/drift. Keyboard was easier, but still too hard. I find it too fast, and the bouncing around is very unforgiving. Sad, because I love everything else about this. Graphics are absolutely amazing! Great job!
Thanks a lot for the detailed feedback.
The bouncing on collision seems to be the biggest issue when I gave the game to some friends to test it ( I wish I did that sooner haha).
Putting the acceleration on A was natural for me since I'm used to play Mario Kart and Crash Team Racing. The best thing is to give the player the choice.
Thanks again for the feedback.
pretty good looking and feeling game. i would like it if there was a failstate, like enemies that can damage you, or obsticles or something. otherwise a pretty nice juicy entry.
This game is sick, reminds me a lot to absolute drift, and has great level design that tests the player mastery on the controls. Really Cool!
This game is sick! nice job with the art and the aesthetic, it's super cool. The drifting was a bit hard to control, but fun regardless!
I love this art! And he's funny too!!
Hard but badass! I have seen a lot of games about looping around enemies to destroy them, I never thought of doing it with a car!
Great graphics, great physics, maybe the level design could be improved, especially the difficulty curve, but the game is really enjoyable as-is. Well done!
its a bit difficult but i enjoyed it! lots of fun, i do wish the movement wasn't so slidey when you're not drifting, but other than that, super fun game!
Great idea, it's a fun game. Maybe just a bit hard.
