Love the presentation, nice work on that. The general premise is good too, however I did have some difficulty getting the car to play nicely. A bit of Crazy Taxi DNA in here it feels like, which it would have been nice to lean into and have a really polished car controller, however for the time constraints of the jam this is still a great effort. Well done!

I like the idea, but the center of mass on the car is too high, so you flip the car all the time. This sadly takes me a little out of the experience of a game i think otherwise would be great.
Interesting game, I had fun. To me, the single thing that prevented me to have more fun was that the car is very unstable, often rolling and requiring me to reset (and thus go back far away from where I was).
Also took me a while to see the beacons, and understand that the “123m” indicator refers to the distance to the delivery destination.
The idea of having the delivery items to make the driving more difficult (olive oil making it more slippy…) was really nice! Is the brick working as auto-throttle a reference to putting a brick over the gas pedal? :-)
Love the graphics!! really fun to tumble around while trying to find the items, lol!!
great idea to have the deliveries influence the driving mechanic. beautiful chaotic fun!
ooohhh im so happy to have played a game like this in this jam, car games are kinda rare and in 4 days it's amazing ! idk i just had a good time even tho it's not that deep aahaha
reminds me of midtown madness. I had blast recklessly launching myself around. Brick and nitrous combo was chaos lol
love the chosen aesthetic, it works really well! the car physics are a little janky but fun nonetheless. found it a bit hard to find the beacons at first and then was a bit unsure on finding where to deliver, but i found the gameplay satisfying and fun just to drive around the map anyways!
graphics are amazing, car physics needs some polishing, but overall a fun game
Love the art and sound. The handling was very punishing, and the drift was pretty weak so I didn’t bother using it. Was hard to tell where I was supposed to go as well, so I couldn’t complete the game. Either way, had fun! It’s nice to play a tasteful 3D game in a jam.
Really love the physics and the concept of having more and more car conditions ! Just wished the object were closer, and that we could reset the angle of the car without resetting our position. Had fun !
This is a very fun game with a simple premise and a wacky bouncy car.
I too suffered from trying to find these beacons at first but once i knew what to look out for i was set.
this is a very fun game keep up the great work! - Eric
Love the old school graphics! And the way the delivery items change how you handle is an interesting mechanic. I did have trouble finding the items at first, a navigational aide like a compass could be a good addition. Cool game!
Immaculate PS1 era vibes and aesthetic. Also - thank you so much for the reset button since I happened to roll over every 30 seconds :D
