Very nice and original visuals. Fun too. Was doing well, for some reason lagged, and the next second the building is collapsing on to me :D

5th try's the charm! Fantastic job, those cops are maniacs. Art style reminded me of the video Shynola did years ago for Lyrics Born (Quannum Projects) - I changed my mind ( worth a watch on YouTube if you don't know it). Anyway, tons of fun here, congrats!

I done it!


Love the art style, love the destruction physics, love the shortened acronym which rolls right off the tongue. Don't love the cops, who definitely caused more mayhem than they stopped, someone tell them that launching the cars out of cannons isn't the answer.

Thanks for creating this gem of a game, even if you aren't my dad.

Holy destructive physics!

I also really love how creative you were with your art style to turn some real simple drawings & models into a unique and interesting flair.

If there's something I missed (either literally or figuratively), it's a pause menu with an option to reset the run after eventually getting punted into a softlock.

very impressed with what you did in the time alotted. bus feels good, cops have no regard for their or other's safety, and the building collapse mechanic is fantastic.  would love to see more levels

the only game in the jam so far that I played through 4 TIMES!
I really thought I was a crazy and mildly destructive driver, but that was beforeI learned about the police in this town. these guys are the true maniacs.

So glad you had fun with it! We were particularly happy with how chaotic the police are.

Really Love the style and writing. They tie so well together

Sincerely, I love this. The title, the pedestrian and building and vehicle chaos, the style! I hope this one wins. (⁠◔⁠‿⁠◔⁠)

Really funny concept and surprisingly fun gameplay. The chaotic bus driving matched the jam vibe perfectly.
