Can I compete for the longest time instead? :D I got stuck before finish line a bit and had to backtrack so much. Because it was uphil :D 

Developer

lol yea I always ended up resetting over and over. I’d love to have it show a rank of where you are on the leaderboard tho lol that’d be sweet

So satisfying to play, the feeling of speed is very pleasant. Well done!

Fantastic idea, gets quite challenging! the adaptive drum track was a nice touch, nice to see someone else using a dynamic soundtrack

Submitted(+1)

absolutely brilliant!

Submitted(+1)

This is so fun!! I'd play a full version of this for sure. Managed to accidentally get the high score on one level by playing with explosive barrels haha

Developer(+1)

that’s so sweet I was hoping that would happen!!

Submitted(+1)

I suspected so! The one with like five barrels right behind the start point, right?

Submitted(+1)

I'm in love with the vibe of this game, feels fun to control and to play

Feels like an old school arcade game, or an SSX tricky mini game. Great retro music, art was cracking me up, super satisfying to launch down.

Great aesthetic, great vibe. Not fully understanding the mechanics of going fast though.

Developer

it’s all physically based so you really only gain speed when your putting dirt to wheel, falling, or going through boosts! Lmk if u have more questions/issues

Very addicting lol.  The rolling is well implemented, it's very fun. It's also awesome that you can see the world record. My only nitpick is that the 3, 2 ,1, Go everytime you restart is an unnecessary slowdown when you are frequently retrying.  Other than that very well done!

Developer(+1)

thank you! My workaround for this is if you really want to just learn a level you can just keep resetting to checkpoint until you wanna go for a record. I totally agree that you should be able to turn it off tho, I just didn’t quite have time.. :(

I gotcha, it was just a nit pack haha. I got 3 hours of sleep the past two nights so I can relate on the time crunch haha. Very solid game, nice work :)

The straftat aesthetic is put to good use here, I love the music and flow of this game. And race ghosts?!? Well done!

This game hit me like a tire rolling down a hill at 50mph. I dont know what it is about it but the whole package here reminds me of rainy weekends spent at my uncle's house playing free 3D games on his Mac. Thanks for the vibes.
