I love the creative theme. Popping balloons in a multiplayer arena reminds me a lot of old school Mario Kart and that's a great vibe! The movement does feel sluggish and slow, and since I'm playing alone, I noticed none of the other roombas seemed to move...so I'm unsure if I was doing something wrong with the set up or some other factor. Would love to see some speed boosts or power ups, and general movement polishing!

sadly there was no time to implement computer opponents, so it’s only a local multiplayer game, like flash style web games. There’s no error on your side.
I was thinking about power-ups and speed boosts with the items like the cacti and banana peels, that there would be other items, that could grant you some speed boost for example, but we tried to make it a smaller scope game, because we didn’t have that much time due to personal reasons.
I also like to take game jams as sort of a challenge to learn some new technology, so this game is written in the Odin programming language.
Thank you for the feedback.
