The story was so good in this. Really wholesome and I like indie game logic. The game’s controls were sort of bad, but I think it made the game feel better. Understanding how to follow the path without bumping into the walls made the gameplay loop be interesting. The way to AI behaved made it feel like I was playing with other people.

There are other game modes in addition to racing! I almost missed that :o
It is in the “Play” menu after beating the race mode. Apart from that well done! I’ve found Super Monkey Bathtub Racing fun and I bet it would be well suited to a multiplayer mode :)
Also good job on the AI. It’s really well balanced. Did you try adding some sound effects? Maybe it could give an even goofier feel. Especially when bouncing all over the track.
And theme is completely ok ^^. Beyond “Low-budget”, and up to “carefully crafted high-end blindness inducing art”.
Sadly now I’m blind.
P.S. Love the “Settings”. I’m jealous ^^
thanks for such warm review :3
as for the sound effects i considered them but they would've annoyed people considering how many "bonks" happen per second, as you could hear i only added them on most significant events. I also didn't want to make you deaf as well because you wouldn't hear my evil laughter then xd
I really like the visuals, reminds me of older faux-3d games. the enemy AI was good!
