How did you interpret the theme?
I paired the technical intensity of a 90s arcade racer with the absurdity of dodging cows and snowmen at 250km/h. The "silly" soul of the game lies in the handcrafted GameMaker sprites and the frantic, horn-heavy driving.

Man this game is so cool, It reminded me of the car minigame in WarioWare Smooth Moves!
I really like the 2d graphics and the sorta fake 3d you get while moving with the car, even the biomes and the honking(best part I think i've spammed it all through the run) are so well done.
This brought back fond memories for me of all the time I spent playing Rad Racer on the NES as a kid!
Visuals were whimsical and just scuffed enough to add that proper silliness flair. Best believe that horn got plenty of use, too!
Transitions between stages felt seamless and I loved seeing the facial expression in the mirror while speeding through the different biomes. Great job with this one!
REALLLY FUNN!!! Might be one of my favorites games from the jam so far! I love the variety of environments and the detail that you cant honk while turning cuz your using both hands lol. Great job!!!
Yeah!! I made it to town! So many different environements :D
I really loves those graphics, really well done I had a lot of fun :), may be a bit to easy but that's better than to hard ;).
This is so cool, the camera effects, the honking (i forgot to add it), the changing biomes, the directions, the sounds, music, man, in three days i barely made the driving feel smooth enough on mine.. this is a visual espectacle!!! amazing!!
Suprisingly fun game!
Adding so many different maps within this short time frame is impressive
Thanks a lot! :D Once the base system was coded, adding new biomes was pretty straightforward. just needed the backgrounds, objects, and music. Glad you enjoyed it!
I trully liked it, well done !! The rearview mirror is such a good idea xD it adds smthg, and good job for the variety of environnement !
Thanks!! <3 I really think lil details like that make a big diff in games overal, so I love adding them. Super happy u noticed :D
A cozy "TOP GEAR" experience!
Thx! Totally agree! Top Gear vibes were exactly what I was aiming for. Appreciate the kind words!
