How does your game fit the theme?
The main (movement) mechanic off the game is the engine of a chainsaw has to be started. If you jump the chainsaw turns off and has to be started again.

Amazing game! I had so much fun playing it. I loved the art style, the music, and how smooth the gameplay feels
The gameplay is fantastic! There’s massive potential for it to become a speedrunning type game here. It also has a strong core mechanic that's perfect for building on top of. The revving sound effects are super satisfying, and the dynamic camera zooms really enhance the feeling of speed. The visual effects (especially the blood) are also really satisfying to look at.
My only suggestion would be to make the overheat mechanic more visually apparent on screen. For example, you could gradually tint the screen red as the engine approaches overheating. Right now, it's a bit frustrating to have to constantly glance at the bar instead of focusing on the oncoming obstacles. Aside from that, really enjoyed my time with this one!
fantastic idea thanks :)
Super creative and funs pin on getting started haha, was super fun to play! Was definitely super satisfying controls and general gameplay!
This reminds me of some of those flash games when they were at their peak. This was a blast to play!
Pretty fun game. I love that you found or made the chainsaw to be orange just like the character from Chainsaw Man haha.
For this game there's one thing I would really like to see improved which is the camera. For an essentially forward motion-only game like this, I would really try and make the camera very biased towards the right side, basically showing the player just the stuffs in front of them. I also think the zooming out could be a little smoother.
Yeah thats a good point. I really struggled with the camera and it definitely need more work.
I was testing it on the right side but then the feeling of speed got lost (what is a essential part of the gameplay).
Because I ran out off time, I made the trade off to put it more to the left.
I will definitely work on that part after the jam. Thanks for your feedback :)
Simple, bloody fun! Love it ٩(^ᗜ^ )و ´-
