DYING IS WORSE THAN LOSING YOUR GIRLFRIEND...
It’s a really fun little game—I tried it two or three times and finally beat it. I really love the adrenaline rush I get from driving against traffic (though in real life, you should still be careful on the road). I really like the storytelling and art style here. Anyway, congrats on finishing the game!
I thought this was just going to be solely a visual novel, but boy was I wrong! You really managed to capture how infuriating traffic is so well, but it was hard to be super annoyed because my ears were getting blessed by a banger. Also, I don't know how intentional it was, but the fact that the car is going at a crisp 1.4 mph (2.2 kmph) is so funny to me XD
LMAO NOOO YOU'RE RIGHT 😭 I only did math for it once, and it wasn't actually tied to the final distance value or the fact that the drive takes about an hour, so I completely overlooked that! I might leave it like that after voting though, it's really silly xD
and aw, TYSM about the music! I was really happy to see we could use old stuff we had, i'd have taken forever to make a new song 😋
I really enjoyed the game, but please add a horn button so you can honk at those slow drivers BLOCKING 2 LANES!! Maybe then they'll finally start using the gas pedal, because right now the only solution is to dematerialize them into nothingness to remove these two road blockers.
But seriously, I really love the graphics, the concept is really creative, and the gameplay feels smooth!
Thank you so much!! Yeah, lol, there were tons of things I wanted to add to the traffic behavior, but I knew my art skills necessitated more work-time than programming, so it ended up kinda minimalistic 😔 but after voting, I'll definitely add honking and more features to help quell the road rage 😁
What I initially took for a visual novel turned out to be a driving simulator where you have to dodge cars across two lanes to avoid veering into oncoming traffic. Then it hits you: it’s a German Autobahn simulator where you’re stuck behind a car whose driver seems to have forgotten how the gas pedal works. You spend minutes cursing, wishing they’d finally switch to the right lane or just step on the gas or something xD The game was almost *too* realistic for me xD But I really like the art style and the story!
Thank you!! I didn't have enough time to add all of the annoying little traffic mechanics my heart desired, but I'm glad to have the impression of properly frustrating traffic anyways 😁🫶
Don't open this! was really cool too, it was "fun" seeing how my newly unwise life choices have impact previous estimates on my lifespan. ( ˚ ∘ - ﹏ - ) I think I'll be keeping it on my hard drive to glance at once in a while...
I love the narrative of this! It's such a good idea and I love how it implements the theme into the gameplay
Tysm !! I really liked your submission as well, Bomb Co. was a blast! 😁😁
