I like how the game combined the idea of racing and making donuts! I believe my car will be able to make more  donuts if I practice more!

I found it a bit difficult and couldn't progress much, but there's definitely something interesting in the core idea. With some tweaks or clearer guidance, I think it could become something really cool. There's potential here!

Really nice and original game! There's not much to the gameplay, but the controls are so satisfying. The sound is also on point. It would also be great to have some nice vibing soundtrack on the back. Overall it was really enjoyable to make donuts!

I can never say no to a game that allows me to make donuts with cars, especially when they are literal donuts hahahah. It was a fun concept, but the cutting mechanism seemed to only work for the first donut I made. Nice work!

Yeah. The issue is that all the time in the editor it was going to the next donut perfectly but in the build this happened. :(

You need to make donuts with a car. Think of the car as cutting through dough to make donuts as it goes in circles

Fun concept, though I'm finding it a little difficult to get it to cut the donuts out. Not sure if I'm doing it right, but I managed to get one at least xD
