How does your game fit the theme?
My game fits into the theme in several instances, some of the upgrades have to do with loops, the car simulation part is the car driving in a loop, it is also a roguelike so that is a loop in and of itself.

really neat game! maybe have some other little cars racing alongside it as well? cool stuff overall :D
Thanks for playing!
Great suggestion, I have it written down for the future :)
This is very impressive. Super polished! The biggest thing I missed were some synergies. Seems there is no real strategy, everything you select is good, and where you place the gates does not really matter either. Art looks great (font can be a little hard to read, but I appreciate you having a pixel font!)
I think there is a lot of potential here. Great job!
Thank you so much for playing and the feedback!
Yeah there could be a lot more upgrades for synergies and where you place the gates have no real impact, your still gonna hit them. Its more of a choice of which gates you want. The font is a little hard to read and I have modified it now after all the feedback so I will probably update it when the voting ends :D
Incredibly Polished! Seriously it has excellent presentation for an indie game let alone a 96 hour jam game. I loved the Balatro influences.
I have a couple nitpicks that being 1. I't was very easy I wasn't even sure how you lose at first. 2. I'm not sure handling does, or what the point of speed is if your measured in loops made not how fast you make them. But perhaps I just ignored some instructions. Seriously good work, keep it up!
Thank you for trying it out!
Speed helps do more loops which score you more points and handling is how much speed you keep while drifting. It's not shown that great. The difficulty turned out super easy, you have to intentionally try to lose to actually lose xD
I love seeing other roguelikes people have made, your's is so good! All the UI is super juicy and the game just feels so good to play. I also really like the concept of upgrading a car and placing gates it's really creative. Great submission!
Thank you so much, glad you liked it :D
Gates are a really interesting idea, somewhat similar to "replacing track sections" other jammers were using but way better looking
Thanks!
Yeah I really wanted something extra other than just upgrades.
Nice game, I finished it and I'm not sure how you can't get first place, so it was super easy. But fun nonetheless. Could be a great little game with some balancing and more going on during the race
Thank you for playing and the feedback!
I totally agree it needs balancing and some expansion, luckily I have lots of ideas of features and systems to add in the future :D
Very creative idea! I really like the gameplay and all the upgrades. I feel the racing time is still pretty long, even at the highest speed. Other than that, the game is very fun. Good job!
Thank you for playing! Fair feedback, I also feel it takes a little to long sometimes as well xD
A nice little game! The gameplay is simple but addicting. I would like to see more gate slots and more rounds to make the game goes crazy :)
Thanks! Good suggestion as well :)
Really impressive that you made it in 2 days. Great game and art!!
I think you mean 4 days xD
Thanks for playing!
Oh, my bad—I misread your game’s submitted 2 days before deadline. XD
I'm gonna be 100% honest with you and say this is one of the top 3 I've played in this jam. The idea, mechanics, upgrades... it's just so good. I really loved it so much. Great stuff.
Thank you so much Bröther! I had lots of fun making it, glad you enjoyed it <3
One of games of this jam that i played the most, really really liked the idea and mechanic. Congratulations for doing all of this and alone too, two points that i can say is that this font is really hard to read, i find hard to understand the upgrades sometimes and the game may be a little easy for my taste. Other than that, crazy good game!
Thank you for the feedback, there is definitely work to be done with the font and the balancing. Glad you liked it :D
Really fun game with beautiful visuals! Excellent all around. Great work!
I am honored Mr Belley, thank you for taking the time to try it out I really appreciate it <3
Only bad thing is no endless mode! seriously addicting! great job.
That will definitely be a feature if and when I develop it more :D
Thank you for playing it :)
This game is so freaking satisfying. Maybe a little too easy, but honestly idc because 'mm number go up'. I've been trying to only spend 5 minutes playing each game I try... couldn't help but play this one more than that. really fun game
Number go up can absolutely overtake the brain. Yeah the game could be a little more challenging I think. Happy to see it hooked you :D
ahhhh, I was having a blast racing the car and it took me 40 laps to realize I wasn't driving the car... 😂 It was very polished and felt like a complete game with a lot of content. Good work!
Very high praise indeed, thank you for playing it and having fun :D
genuinely convinced myself this game had really slick mouse-based driving and i was executing it perfectly every time. does that mean i had more fun than i would have? hard to say.
Haha, you must have been killing it xD
Very fun game! It feels super polished and the UI is nicely polished.
But I think the game could be harder. Good Job!
Yeah it needs some balancing of difficulty but I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Congrats! This game made it into my top 10 games from the GMTK Game Jam <3

Hot damn! That means alot thank you <3
I like the build up of upgrades to the track. It makes things more interesting as the game goes on.
Thank you kindly!
This had me hooked, it was really satisfying to play
Thanks, that's great to hear :D
