I really enjoy the idea and the feel of driving the taxi was pretty satisfying, but I had a pretty hard time finding the passengers after the first one. Would help if there was some kind of pointer indicating the next goal.

What a great idea! Super smart mashup of crazy taxi with powers, just really a strong premise. Also I loved the taxi and mutation art. I laughed when I had all sorts of stuff on me and I was turtle spinning with my racoon arms out. One balance thing I noticed, it was actually better to just farm logs for 10 gold at a time since they respawned.
Super polished and enjoyable! Really impressive for the time limit.
Minor issues with the controls, Ctrl+A/D weren't exclusively captured be the game and led to my browser closing 😅.
I love the little abilities you get from passengers. I started with nothing but buying upgrades and tedious tasks becoming more streamlined was super satisfying!
I can't believe you made this in 9 days as a solo dev! Great Job! It is so polished and complete.
I'm very bad at driving game with a keyboard an mouse so I didn't get really far. I added the game to collection, when/if you start to support controllers, I'd like to play again!
I loved this game! It was fun and easy to figure out from the get. The art for the critters was my favorite, and I wanted to keep dropping off the turtle and the frog quickly just to see if I could get the beaver again - he was my favorite cartoon! I definitely got topsy turvy from the wiggle of the car and the controls, but once you figure it out to avoid the camera spinning, there's something kind of charming about the swirvy mechanics of driving the car and controlling the camera. I think for someone more motion-sick it would be nice to have the ability to configure the camera and things like that, but it would be totally impossible to implement customizations like that in a game jam. Overall, great game! Good job
Loved this game! The taxi and character art was so nice, and I loved the car mutations. Amazing that you made all this in such a short time!
Car felt fun to drive! Loved the visual changes to your car after picking up a new passenger. Felt good to figure out how not to spin out and use mutations to get to dropoff points faster. Got to the town center dropoff point really fast one time by driving into the water lol
the game is good so as the graphics and music but the controls need to be tuned as specially the camera and the jump.
apart from that the game is great
It's just the camera felt a bit too unstable and shakes a lot so it slightly feels nausea inducing.
As for the jump it's that the car starts to rotate on a bunch axes at the same time and quickly becomes hard to control.
those aren't a big deal just a bit of constructive criticism to an overall fun game
Hi, the theme in your game is very unique and interesting. Good job!
