Really fun experience! The gameplay feels smooth and fun, however i do feel like the reward system needs some work.

the progression feels really slow, at least in my experience. starting the player with this much money just doesnt feel right. especially when having to completely reset if you run out. instead, id prefer if there some way to make money that isnt gambling. this game really reminds me of Duck life the flash game, and i think it should take inspiration from it too. maybe instead of betting on a random cookie each time, you can "own" one that you train and grow to eventually win races with. aswell open up ways to make money passively in case you blow it all on one race. that obstacle addition is a nice feature, and can easily be expanded on.


with all that said everything else about the game is great! the art,music and ui are all very good. this is still a great game by all means, but i just think it needs that bit more. 4/5!

Heyyy thanks SO much for this feedback :D

By "starting the player with this much money just doesnt feel right" u mean its too less, right?
Cuz that is kinda intended :P tho i do think i need to increase it a bit more probly.

I also agree the progress at the start is relly slow.. cuz ya u mostly gotta wait mostly for the random spawner to do its work and use those + your starter obstacle to win.. so i def wanna think more about that..

I was conflicted between making this like a "perma death" kinda where your run ends if you get to 0 coins (just like rn u have to delete ur save if you lose all ur money) or just add a way to earn some money other than gambling..
For the passive earning i had an idea where you could cheer for your cookie when it passes by some audience (which isnt in the game yet ofc) and that would maybe get u some coins lol
OR sm like you'd need to sell your obstacle passes to get back some money if u get to 0 OR the easiest and worst idea is what i had before lol, i.e. if u run ouut of money, u just get a small amount like 2k again so u can continue to play.

So yaa im still very confused as to what to do for this part.. But if i do end up adding a way to get money other than gambling i def wanna keep it to a level where it only acts to make it so you dont get bankrupt.

I also saw the duck life games as u mentioned and i can see why u remembered that from this haha

I did think about you owning one cookie at the start of a run where you have to use that cookie for all the races and can only choose a new cookie by resetting your progress like deleting ur progress.. But that doesnt sound very fun :P
Either way, im not really sure if i could add this specific element of the ducklife games of owning a duck here.. I mean this game lives on the idea of horse race betting xD
So i really wanna keep the ability that the player can bet on anyone for any race

Also, i wanted to ask if you managed to win a race or two :P
Cuz i got a few frnds to try it aswell and they were having quite a hard time haha

Anyways, i really do appreciate the feedback and would love if u have anything else to add to this after my reply :D
Thanks alot!
