It's very funny to get ahead of yourself only to remember you took a boost last round and watch your ghost just ram you from the back.

Great fun. 10/10!

I like the new approach to ghosts in racing games! Especially with a racing game, where precise dodges are harder, this gets very interesting and challenging very quickly!

Also, you can drive a hot dog. 10/10

I hope you'll try out and rate my entry too!

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed driving a hot dog. I will definitely check out your game.

I enjoyed getting wrecked by myself, lol! Good work!

Developer

Thanks!

OMG! Great minds think alike! Ghost cars!!! Haha, such a fun concept, right?

Developer

That's awesome that we ended up creating similar games!

Fun but some of the turns are sharper than the car's turnig radius so you are forced to go on the grass killing the flow. But overall fairly good!

Developer

Thanks! Most of the turns require drifting to make it without going off the track.

How do you drift I didn't know you can do that

Developer

Hold space bar to drift.

Always wanted to drift with a hotdog car. Thanks for making my dream game :D
Also a really solid idea for the loop

well implemented

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed drifting the hotdog car.

Pretty cool game. I've seen a couple with the racing premise. I like that you have to avoid your old selves.

Developer

Thanks!

Feels really smooth, was able to get multiple loops seeing the stacking previous racers and made it more fun. I would have enjoyed some sort of goal or target that could have served as a goalpost even if that just would lead to new tracks

Developer

Thanks! I agree that there should have been a goal. I was having a hard time thinking of one while working on the game.
