i dont feel the controls were too bad, i think the speed of the vehicle may have been the issue, it had a very fast launch to it. the art was great and music was jamming, it was a lot of fun to play

Use of the limitation
All of the sprites are 8x8 pixels, with a limitation of 8 frames (if any), and so the player object is 8 8x8 textures "stacked" together.

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! The speed definitely gets hectic pretty quickly!
I'd like to make a post on the MiniJam Discord sometime soon, describing how I generate game jam music with Wolfram Tones. Music is super important in a game, and for non-musicians like me it really takes a load off my shoulders!
(Basic workflow: Download GXSCC, then go to Wolfram Tones, vary the RULE and SEED until you like the riff, then download the MIDI file, change the rule, and repeat to get about 5 or 6 such MIDI files. Run them through GXSCC and use a script to randomize the next clip to play, ad infinitum.)

Ah, sorry about that! That is something I found post-submission, it's happened to me before as well. I'm glad you liked the look!
Thank you for checking it out, I appreciate it!
Thank you! It was my first time using sprite-stacking to get that "3d" effect, it was very quick to set up and I'll be looking for other ways to use it! Trying to wrap my artist brain around "sine" stuff to get the bounce working was a bit harder, haha, but it works now.
Thank you for playing! Have a great week!
Really fun Game! Controlling the car is a little bit hard in some situations, espacially the jumping over obstacles, but with the bouncing it is still fun. The graphic is very nice. You did a very good job.
I got a time of 1:49 in the first try, in the second one I had a lot of luck and the targets were all in the same area:

Nice! I'm glad you like it! I tried to work the kinks out of the collision system, but those pesky little buildings are as mysterious as they are tall and foreboding. Well, as they are tall. Well, as they are buildings.
Thank you for checking out my game and giving feedback, I appreciate it!
