Well done. Maybe vehicle controller can be improved. The Vehicle runs always in the air XD

Developer

Thanks for trying it out! 
That's a new one on me, do you mean gravity wasn't on for the player?

Nice job man. Love that drifting sound.  Hope the orphanage survive. 

Developer

lol-that all depends on you!

Thanks for trying it out!

The game felt good, I enjoyed the gameplay, it really made me think of the arcade games :P Keep it up!

Developer

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

So simple yet so fun! Really nice arcade game. It felt so good getting so fast that no one could catch you and it was funny that after all the chaos you caused in the city you end up donating the money hahaha, nice work

I love a nice arcade game, and the SIMPLE assets were a great fit here. I laughed when I realised that I'd just saved the orphanage by donating all my money, but then I played again and a school bus was one of the cars chasing me! I'm trying to save your home you ungrateful orphans!

I'd love to see this extended with more goals, powerups, etc! Well done!

Developer

Thanks! That's the plan, more power ups, cut scenes (who doesn't love crying kids?) etc. 

That's hilarious about the bus, I didn't even think of that :D

Developer

Thanks for playing! I agree, lots of stuff to tune and add, but I think a decent base. I want even more chaos, bwhahahaa!

Super fun game!!  I loved how chaotic it got. I caused like an 8-car crash lol. I think some of the mechanics could be improved a bit, and that would really enhance the feel of the game. Great work!!

Wow Collider, this game is actually so fun. Sorry it took so long for me to fix my issues on my end and finally give it a try. I love how I can jump right in without thinking about controls, it just makes sense. One thing I didn’t know is that I could move the camera with my mouse, which is fine, I figured it out afterward and it made things a lot smoother. There are some very funny things like I’m able to stack a bunch of cop cars on top of me after crashing headfirst into them hahaha very cool given that it’s not physics based.

I do think I’m a little too powerful as a player though and I VERY easily outrun anybody, but that’s all cool since this is a 7 day jam.

Developer

I'm glad you got it sorted! Thanks for giving it another go! Once you get a couple bolts it's too easy, definitely needs some balancing. I will probably flesh it out more next week. But it's also fun to zoom around and create havoc. Glad you had fun!

Submitted(+1)

Had way more fun than I expected. The car sandwiches with police and fire trucks made me laugh. The music kept me driving even after collecting every coin. Also stacked police cars are a feature, not a bug. I accidentally discovered the underground world beneath the map. Nice secret! I came to rob, somehow ended up donating everything to orphans. Great job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing!

I had actually fixed the stacking on the player with another collider, but it was messing with the pickups and last minute fix didn't work. I definitely wanted the popo to stack, as much mayhem as possible! Glad you enjoyed it!

Do you remember where you were able to slip through? I thought I had fixed all the collision, but I guess not :D

Submitted

Haha, sorry, I should've been clearer. I didn't actually fall through the map. I just noticed that by moving the mouse I could tilt the camera enough to peek underneath the level.

Developer(+1)

Oh haha - yeah, never fixed that :D When I played with controller I did that all the time! Thanks for the feedback! By weird coincidence your game was the next on my list to play, had downloaded last night, loading it up now.

Submitted

I loved it!! I like game play and the sounds!! the pace of the game it is great!! Polished for a week game!! Great job!!

Submitted(+1)

Really fun and well-made! Great job for a 7-day game! The controls are also very good!

Submitted(+1)

This game was a lot of fun. The music and sounds were really nice. The crash sounds were really satisfying and the church bell was cool. Fun gameplay, not too punishing. Find all of the regen hearts and coins and delivering them to the orphanage. Very cool. Nice controls for a car game too. Thanks for the fun!

Developer(+1)

Awesome, glad you liked it! Thanks for trying it out.

Fun chase game. The police school bus was certainly unexpected. Coins aren't respawning between games though so the orphans are going hungry tonight. Thanks for making.

Developer

Yeah, was working on respawn at the last minute, just ran out of time. I was so close too :D

I thought it was funny to have "undercover" cops in there, so I left the lights/sirens on everyone. As much chaos as possible. Also didn't get to destructible objects, I'll add all that stuff in after the jam. Thanks for playing!

Nice Game.

Developer

Thanks for trying it!

Controls feel great. I think you nailed the police chase vibe!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks! Just implemented Heath/Hitbox/Hurtbox, so we'll be causing some destruction soon!

Can I ask what platform you played on? Someone told me the Windows version wasn't working.

Submitted(+1)

I played on Windows, and it seemed ok to me.

Developer

Awesome, glad to hear. Posting latest now, have some UI, pickups and health + fx. Will hopefully add a few more things tomorrow. Thanks again for trying it out!
