Really fun racer, I liked how seamless the transition was to racing your ghost and the drifting felt really nice to pull off, it never felt uncontrollable like some games. If I am to nitpick (and this is like a really small thing) maybe some visual effects to add a sense of speed? Other than that, great game! 


P.S. I loved the music track. Fit really well

Happy to hear that, thanks a lot! 

Yeah some cool speedlines and blurring are painfully missing! Maybe for the full release if ever :D

Very stylish. The controls were very smooth. Turning an established trope like a ghost race into the core mechanic is a cool idea. I think it can be improved a little though. Nothing is stopping the player from deliberately getting a terrible time so they can easily score points. Perhaps consider adding a par time or something, to force the player to go fast. Or perhaps you can record ghosts for every race so the game becomes about constantly improving your time.

Developer

Thanks a lot! 

Well there are no points, so I didn't think it really matters. It's really just about the vibe of getting into that flow hitting every corner fluently. 

The ghost does record every lap, it's always the ghost of your previous lap :)

Oh, I must've misunderstood then. Regardless, a very nice and polished experience. And hey, if you have time, I'd love for you to check out our game as well.

This was great, I was really expecting more driving games so always a pleasent suprise when one comes up in the random shuffle. This one was certainly impressive with it's consistent feeling and art but I do wish it had a little more oomph, I think the effects that were applied when you went through a speed boast should have been permenant and maybe blur the screen on the speed boast to sell the effect. That said, this was a blast and a really impressive creation for just a handful of days work!

I love the visual style. Drifting was fun too, nice work!

Developer

Thanks a lot! Happy you had fun :)

I'm not sure if the large and medium tracks were supposed to be the easier ones, but the small track was the easiest and most fun for me, drifting on it felt best

Developer(+1)

Oh wow really? You're the first to mention that! Happy to hear you had fun :)

Love the visual style! The music choice is really good and reminds me a bit of the Frozen Synapse OST. The race tracks are well balanced and the final/small track feels really well tuned and tricky to win. Even when I'm not trying to win, it's just relaxing and fun to cruise around the track and perfect each turn.  Very enjoyable!

Developer(+1)

That's exactly the feeling I wanted the players to have! Cruising through the curves :)

Thanks for playing and happy to hear that you enjoyed it that much!

very fun game, interesting take on the theme and i love it! awesome graphics and the controls feel very responsive and intuitive. some way of encouraging you to try your best rather than starting really slow just to beat it easily but i honestly have no clue what that could be. 

if you have time, id really appreciate it if you could give me some feedback on my game (/jam/gmtk-2025/rate/3780834) - its my first game jam and im looking to get better!

Developer

Thanks for the wonderful comment, happy you liked it! 

Once I have more time I want to go over the list of replies and play their games, I'll get to your as well :)
