I really like the simple driving format, if you had to turn manually this would be a nightmare to play. I also like the thought you put into every obstacle, as none of them feel cheap, since the fast cars avoid you and the children are very slow (sometimes I clear them off the road though :)). I'm not sure if this is intentional, but one time the white car just ran into me from behind. I just assume this is a bug because every other time, it has steered around me. Great job!

It's a racing game like scalextric where each lap gets harder

Really enjoyed this concept and it was a thrilling ride all the way through!
Really fun! The car was a little hard to see on the track with the coloring, but great overall, I love the concept.
I absolutely love everything about this, from the scalextric nostalgia, to the genuinely fun gameplay loop of trying to complete as many laps as possible as more obstacles are added (or other distractions occur more frequently... 😂) Brilliant work!
This is great! The difficulty ramps up pretty quick - a good challenge!
Great entry! I was a bit sceptical at first, but the gameplay is really fun!!! Really liked the controls and the difficulty.
Good Job!
Why has no one thought about making a Scalectrix video game before? Great idea and also incredibly fun, I'll definitely come back to replay this one! Only suggestion I have, which you've probably thought of already, is make it so that it's also unsafe to go too fast or you risk running off the road, like with the real thing, perhaps with an incremental throttle somehow and maybe a speedometer/throttle meter? Edit: Come tot think of it, the obstacles and the intersection is probably challenge enough.
Also MP support for this would be really fun, reminiscent of that super-fast Micro Machines racing game from way back when.
Very glad you had fun!! Yeah we thought about making the player slow down in the turns but for a Jam this big it would be better to have simplier controlls and not making it too hard (it's already quite hard a few laps in), and also i didn't think i could have it on time. A MP would definitetly be pretty funny too. Thanks for all the feeddback!
Fun idea, the other racing cars made it stressful ahaha, nice range of modifiers
hey man I love your game and I like racing alot it reminds me of the new f1 movie if you would like rating my game I would appreciate it https://leotray.itch.io/haunted-heist
This was really fun to play. I made it to lap 13! 🏎️🏁
The first time the blue car showed up behind me, I panicked and thought it would chase me down, so I started spamming the spacebar like crazy 😄

Pretty fun game and addictive. I like how fast you have to think on your feet!
