Man don't you hate it when the trains already full and they just blow past your station?
Fun bit of game here, I really found myself thinking ahead and then sweating getting the next stop, two signs that I was engaged and interested! Thanks so much for sharing :D

How does your game fit the theme?
You control a train that travels around a circular track, creating a gameplay loop of picking up passengers, delivering them to stations around the track, and earning points. You gain bonus points by doing loops, and loops are counted as a separate score when the game ends.

This is a really relaxing game! I love the interpretation of the theme, the art is cute, and it's really pleasant to listen to you have great sound effects. I think this is a perfectly scoped and executed jam game.
I think the only way I'd suggest improving on this game would be just to give it a little more polish. Maybe some calming music, a sound effect when the train stops in place to pick up passengers. There was a tiny learning curve finding how how much leeway you got on getting the train into the stop. A small sound effect or visual cue that you got it right would be satisfying.
Awesome job!
Thank you for taking the time to play my game and writing such an extensive review!
I can only but agree that the game is a bit rough around the edges. I had a list of things I wanted to include in the game, including some music, but I didn't schedule my time correctly. :D
Thank you for the feedback about stopping at stations! That is something that has not crossed my mind, but I do see how it can be a bit hard for a new player.
Thank you for playing!

Thanks for playing! The 1x is an extension of the basic score counter - it is meant to symbolize one "overflow" (but let's call it a loop) of the score. :D You can reach a higher multiplier by simply achieving score 2 000 000 and so on.
Thanks for playing once more.
