Wow, really beautiful visuals! Reminded me of Thumper (I'm assuming that's an inspiration?). Maybe it's just me playing safe and boring, but I found that if I didn't drift, I could make the timer every time pretty consistently, which makes the game a little easy. Perhaps decrease the amount you get from the checkpoints over time to increase the difficulty? Or something like that. I mean, it's pretty fun as it is just to scramble around as the little hampter chap. Nice entry :)
