Not gonna lie, I don't really understand the game, but I absolutely love these rugs that the game is based on and I had some fun setting cars on fire. I really liked the look of the game and being able to drive around on these rugs.

What began with nostalgia, escalatet quite quickly xD
What could be said has already been done by fellow gamers so.. Great submission :)
Found this game because ours have the same name haha (great name! and we both did it in GameMaker as well :O). Love the concept of driving around on the good ol' carpet, very creative! I was struggling a bit with the default controls, but after switching them to the other input it became a lot easier (probably because I'm more used to navigating that way in games). It would have also been nicer to see the target times more clearly, and maybe a little clearer pop up with maybe a trophy or something after getting the record on each map, but I get that's that super hard to finish in just one week. Good job getting the game done either way!
So cool to remember this old carpet I had as a kid. Thanks for the memory. I didn't fully understand the gameloop, but I had fun roaming around and throwing cars around :) Good job !
The controls were a bit unintuitive at first, but its really fun!
Interesting idea of spinning out the cars to take control of another, I initially misread the description and thought the point of the game was to destroy all your sister's toy cars by smashing into them, once I worked out it was a racing game where you switch cars when yours are damaged so you can continue racing it made more sense. The controls took a bit of getting used to, I didn't realise for a while that the arrow keys steered you in the direction they point and though left and right were steering the car left and right, once I worked it out I kind of got the hang of it. Using Esc for getting into menus doesn't work well on the web, where Esc exits full screen, also the game window doesn't resize nicely, as it's a fixed size, also the road graphics could do with being a higher resolution to more closely match the resolution of the cars and blocks! Well done on making so many different game modes in such limited time!
