Solid entry! I did feel like the road was a wee bit too thin and lead to a lot of annoying moments of colliding with my clones because I couldn't drive around them. But other than that gripe, I had a good time!
I very much agree, especially in bumping into your clones, its so annoying!
Fun use of the theme :)
I liked playing around with the turn sensitivity slider to find the right setting.
Thanks! I also like the slider it lets me well ykyk its cool XD
Yes it's very cool! The title was pretty funny too.
If you have some time on your hands, feel free to check out my submission too :)
thx, ofc sure!
Whenever I lose a race, I tell myself that it's because I was actually too good at the game.
That's actually so smart!
I felt like i wasn't as good as my past self on the first few runs lol, but overall great game!
All good, glad you enjoyed! :D
Hey, just completed the insane mode, got irritated by my own clone that kept bumping me out but managed to beat it, good game!
XD fr, bumping into your clones are the worst thing that can happen, it's so annoying! Thank you and congrats! :D
That means ur better than me and my entire friend group lol, we didnt even manage to beat the normal mode yet.
rip 😭howd one of the creators not finish normal yet
lol
maybe because the other creator didnt want to change the time limit T-T
hey I did!
by like 20 seconds T-T
Hey thats a lot alright 🤷♂️
Fun game! Really liked sabotaging my clone, it was somehow satisfying :). I think the game could have benefited from slightly zooming out when having a lot of speed to better prepare for the next turn (or having the arrows slightly before , my slow brain wasn't enough for those turns, kept bumping ahaha.
For real, so satisfying watching them fall behind! I would love to implement zooming out more with more speed it would definitely improve the game a lot, glad you had fun tho!
This game was a really good use of the theme. Well done!
Thank you <3
I'm not the best racing game enthusiast, but this is a fine game. Playable, good sound, alright graphics. But the biggest advantage is usage of GJ theme. It really added to this game. Good job! :)
Hey, I appreciate it a LOT, giving me lots of hope :D Thank u so much
I like how you can bump into your ghost, yet it keeps going back to its path, that's very unique! Well done! :)
Thanks :]
Very creative use of the concept of looping! The game font is kind of difficult to read. But apart from that is a very fun game.
Thank you! I agree that the font may be hard to read, it doesn't contrast well with the background
I liked that you could collide with your past self, so you could push or block them to gain time. It can get pretty chaotic but that's part of the fun!
For the UI, I found the contrast pretty low between the white text and the very bright background behind it, as it's not super easy to read.
Very true, I've also come to notice this whilst I was testing the game, but shrugged it off for some reason, should have changed it. Glad you enjoyed playing though!
Fun game! I had a bit of trouble bumping into my past selves but it was really cool to see my learning curve happen in front of my eyes!
Same, especially at the start, glad you had fun :]
Very fun one ! The music was a bit laggy on my part but overall had fun :)
Sorry that that happened, but glad you had fun :D
That One Time I got Reincarnated as a comment in That One Time I Got Reincarnated as a Racer and Raced Against My Past Selves comment section to say that That One Time I Got Reincarnated as a Racer and Raced Against My Past Selves is fun vibrant game, only shame there was not momentum left after releasing the accelerate button, however the controllers worked well, great job.
My brain died
Yeah true, my way of making it glide more is to well make it slow down more, but it makes the game look kinda floaty so I didnt know what to do
I get that, balancing hard you alway gain and lose something in the process.
Really fun game! I beat all the races! The ability to sabotage your ghosts was really fun. I actually liked the cars controls a lot, with the turning mechanics and all. I made a racing/drifting game myself. I would appreciate if you could check it out and lemme know what you think!
Thanks dude for sure I'll try out yours!
Good one! It was hard to get used to the tank controls but at least there is someone I can beat in a racing game: myself!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The title reminds me of 'The day I got reincarnated as a panda and started rolling on built to scale platforms' lol. I wish this was longer!
Lol
Really cool take on the ghost racing mechanic I really enjoyed it :) Would love for you to play our game, let us know what you think? :)
Thank you, of course!
Finished both difficulties. Really cool one, good takes on the topic. Cool art and controls feel great, well put together really!
You finished both!? Wow you're really good dude!
Thank you a lot for playing :D
coolitiest coool of cool
maybe next time name it those 10 (or how many there are) times and not one
;)
tyty
