As others have said, just absolutely nailed on all fronts. Amazing work.

I think that this is a really good example of the “high bit” aesthetic. It certainly looks like I could’ve played this on a super nintendo, but it’s crazy readable.

I wish playing as the blonde would make the game easier on me though 😅

The aesthetics and sound design are awesome, and it also feels increadibly slick to play. Great job!

This game has a lot of style, and the leaderboard aspect is pretty advanced for a jam game!

Fun game, but I especially loved the vibes and artwork. I also really like how the tutorial was weaved into gameplay.

Super slick! Riding around at night with the soundtrack and the smooth controls was total vibes B) I really liked the sound design as well; nothing was too loud or quiet! Great work!

I love the color palette. The music, visuals, and sound were all very chill. The controls were smooth. The leaderboard was a nice touch. Good work!

Love the ghost riders appearing where you died on your last run. REALLY fun idea. I don't think I've seen a game that strives to be slick in so many ways as this one. Bravo!

I struggled with the game (skill issue on my part), but loved the presentation! Very slick :) Thanks for making this!! Your artist is fantastic :)

Thank you!!  And to be honest none of us are good at this game either, we had to get someone with much faster reflexes to help us test :'D

I was lucky to see it was a multiplayer game and I was impressed. Nice graphics and vibes. It would have been great if I did not die as soon as I hit a cone. Overall, Good Job!

This game is so charming! I love how stylized it is. the music is a bop too, just existing in the environment is comfortable and pleasant when I'm not stressing about hitting cones. :) Keep up the great work!

Love the pixel art lofi style, it makes this game feel lo cool. Also the music is wonderful for a late night motorbike ride vibe. I lost track of time playing this game!

Very nice entry, the art style and sound work really well together, and the mechanics overall feel quite polished. It did feel a bit like going slower was better in terms of getting more coins because it was hard to see the coins ahead and get in position quickly, but I think overall it still worked quite well and it was a lot of fun. Great job!

This game is aesthetically pleasing in all things, the art style, the color pallet, the sound design. The experience was fun especially with the retro high score feature. The only feedback I have is to make it more obvious why and when you are likely to spiral out, because it felt to me I was spiraling out very randomly (most likely my own skills issue or lack of observation). Overall I really enjoyed this game.

Thanks for the feedback!  Definitely an in-game feedback issue, not a skill issue!  :)

I love how the name of the game really was thought out well. The music felt dream like, even the color pallet felt dream like. And the pixel are was so cool. Also the high score aspect had me playing this game over and over trying to get higher on the board. Really great game. You did a great job at keeping a tight scope and a strong lean into the world and theme of your game.

This game is seriously addicting. Perfect blend of smooth gameplay, slick aesthetics, and absolute terror when ripping the street at 264 speed while fending off the ghost riders. Great work.
