Hey, I kept playing this several times! It's a score chaser for sure. I enjoyed taking the shortcut down the middle and evading the car.

Some things can be improved like the bike's pathing. I don't know if you intentionally made it possible to move sideways in the road. It would be good if you let the bike be locked to the middle of the path, like in the game Pac-Man. Right now it's too easy to get stuck on the corners.

I would suggest adding a beep every second when it gets to 10 seconds and under, and a happy "ding!" when you deliver a package.

Developer

Thanks! I will add them sure : )

Really fun little game, even though I fell victim to car crashs like 20 times haha

My recommendation would be to allow movement only in certain lanes, so it's easier to quickly escape a car by driving into another road (I mostly had to press left/right several times until I found the right spot to enter this road)

But anyways, I had a lot of fun playing your game!

Really addictive gameplay, yet simple to play. I really enjoyed it!

Submitted

I had fun! Nice entry! Music is very simple and can be annoying because it repeats continuously.

Submitted

I really liked the game, fun and simple good sounds too, loved playing it. Reached 37 score :)

Submitted

Fun game! It would be nice to have a restart button (like 'r') for those (me) who had problems avoiding the crazy car.

Developer

Okay I will add that : ) Thanks!

This game is amazing! Absolutely hilarious getting splatted by the car xD

I think tightening up the controls and having a larger level, and maybe varying the path that the car takes would be good places to start if you're looking to improve it.


Awesome work!

Developer

Thanks!

This is fun! I think it's secretly a horror game haha, that car is terrifying!

Submitted

Very nice game loop actually. the car's movements are really fun to work around and finding the points is an interesting challenge. The visuals look rough, but I kinda like the style honestly, reminds me of the charm of older flash games. My only gripes would be the music, since its a little empty and repetitive (maybe add some more percussion?) and a glitch I found where the bottom right building allows you to get out of bounds. Otherwise, pretty good game!

Highscore: 19 packages

Submitted

awesome kids like visuals!

Submitted

Nice game. But the music could use a few improvements.

Submitted

Welp, the game is preety fun! The music is gret, the gameplay feels nice, but the bicuckle sounds are anoing. It would be also nice, if there would be more cars. Over all, great game!!!

Developer

Yes the bicycle sound is annoying. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

No problem!

Submitted

It was pretty fun to play. The car gave me a heartattack though. xd
