Great game! the idea is really creative, maybe you should make the stars you collect maybe make you able to get attached to the rollercoaster for a few seconds so that they allow you so easily pass the circular paths that otherwise are really difficult to pass, but overall great submission keep it up ✨🙌

Very original concept, I managed to make the upwards loop but the downwards one I have no idea how it's done! I think something to be improved is the UI of the speed collectables, I didn't know they were collectables until I read it, also the first runs I kept missing the platforms, specially the ones before the downward loop, they could be more visible. Overall I really had fun and good job on the random generation, it really adds a lot to the game
Very cool idea to combine a 2D platformer with a roller coaster. The random track generation gave me enough motivation to try over and over again. Congrats from a fellow roller coaster developer :)
Very cool take on the loop theme and very fun idea! I like the challenge and the game itself. The art is great too. I think the physics could be done better it's a bit buggy and one time I got launched forward for some reason. Overall a very great game. Could you rate my game?
Oh! We also made a game with roller coasters! And not many of us did it. this one is fun... and pretty hard! Nice entry.
Cool idea with working randomly generated terrain. Physics was a bit jank, but the game was still fun nonetheless.
I’m impressed you managed to get random generation working in a game jam! I like the physics-based gameplay too, although the physics system you’re using is a little janky and hard to predict. The geometry of the coaster is also kind of jagged, which can fling you off in weird directions.
When the physics work, I liked using them to try to make it around the loops - although I don’t think those platforms needed to be there! The loops are the interesting part. If they’re too difficult, maybe try to make them fairer without just letting the player skip them. More segments would also help spice up the level design.
Overall, a nice tricky platformer!
I personally find the big loops really easy, the platform were kind of an idea in risk vs reward thought, going over the look to get that 100p star or just skip to play it safe, this was also the reason why I added this score per minute counter to discourage safe and get the players to risk it for the stars,
the big loop would work without the platform, the small one needs some rework from my side. it is way too difficult. At this point I know what is causing the physics jank but I am not sure how to fix it, or if it is even possible. It's caused by that platform code in the character body to fix it a platform and it really does not play nicely with rotation.
I woud really love to fix the difficulty curve, an when the jank is fix to make it brutally hard in long runs.
glad you liked it.
Cool idea and like that it's randomised. Found the platforming a bit tough, but would like to keep trying.
I was like oh I have to jump here, I restarted and its randomized! Honestly a nice surprise I thought it was memorization based jumps and what not. Feels a lot more skill based with it being randomized!
Very cool idea and also pretty fun. these platforms next to the loopings kind of felt like "cheating", i feel like without them the game would be way more skill based (but ofc the physics system would need a rework if you couldnt "cheat" on the loopings anymore because on these youre most likely to get bounced off xD)
Physics issues aside, this was a really interesting idea. A little frustrating at first, but really satisfying when I was finally able to successfully pass a loop!
Great idea! Very honest in its execution. Would hate to be the one in that rollercoaster lol
Fun and unique game with cute art! A bit hard, but mostly that's my fault because I kept trying to get the shiny stars in the loops.
This is a unique idea! I kept getting myself launched trying to be greedy
Cool idea for a unique platformer! Definitely has potential if you can fix the physics!
If you are willing to polish controls / physics a little bit this has great full game platformer potential!
