This is well made and put a smile on my face. Found it strangely addicting as well. Someone else mentioned obstacles, and I think that would be a great addition to the game play. Nice work on this jam.

Developer

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm definitely looking into fun ways to make the game play more engaging as well!

Nice game and the idea of ghost racing is very good! Though everytime I tried it seems like my opponent barely did anything.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! I'm looking into making the ghost system more accurate and competitive. I have some ideas for after the jam!

The art was all assembled really nicely. If it had some features that made it more difficult, for example obstacles you need to jump over, it would be a even funner game!

Quite an interesting game with a lot of potential for development. A nice visual and an interesting leaderboard concept in such a short time!

What a fun little game, the ghost racing does so much! At first I was a little bored but then the second you see another racer right beside you lock the f in :D 

Developer

Haha I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Nice simple game here! The leaderboard and ghosts really bring it to life. I would like to get a better understading of the different terrain types.

Small issue, maybe juste on my side: the music volume was at 1% on launch, I almost missed on all that goodness.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah the 1% was intentional to not make the music real loud when the game starts but I probably could of went higher then 1% haha!

this is soo damn good, I played it for quite some time haha. I love how managing stamina works, and a whole multiplayer system in a game jam? damn.

Developer

Haha I'm glad you enjoyed it! I had a few friends playing it earlier that enjoyed it as well!

Very well done, simple concept and great implementation. The online leader board and ghost multiplayer is perfect for this
