Really fun little retro game—the music and increasing speed gave it a great arcade feel. I’d love a few obstacles or risky bonuses to collect, and a score that updates more often.

Submitted

Really like the speed increasing conept, would like to be a little more faster jeje, nice work!

Nice little retro game, could have used a little bit more to do (perhaps a moving obstacle or similar). I would have loved if the score updated more regularly too!

Really fun retro-style game! The Game Boy aesthetic, music, and increasing speed create a great nostalgic vibe.

The gameplay is simple but addictive. More variety in cars or obstacles could make it even better, but the core idea is already really fun.

Great job!

Fun concept! I missed the sound of squaky tires tho :)

Simple concept, but quite fun. I love the retro art and audio style, well done! :D

Fun game! I probably shouldn't have played it first thing when I woke up, but I still managed to get to 180 speed or so :)

Amazing art and audio ! I think adding few simple gameplay mechanics would add some variety and make this game truly great !

Nostalgia hits hard on this game! It’s really fun to play, the music is really “racing.” But since the game allows us to move in 4 directions, we think it’s possible to spawn some stuff for players risking their lives collecting bonuses.

Overall, really polished game!

give me a port on the gameboy and im sold. give me more difficulty options and im even more sold. reminds me of midnight motorist from fnaf. i think if there was car variation, like having semi-trucks or something, or cars that exceed the current speed to throw you off it would make the game even more interesting, but as is it is pretty solid and a good take on the theme :>. (managed to get to score of 17)

Love to see a GB contribution to the jam!  Banging tunes, I managed to hit a score of 17 🚗💨🏁

Really creative take on the theme! I like that you decided to use the countdown not as an endgame condition, but rather to increase the difficulty. I like the single-color approach, but have you tried making the player a contrasting color (like white or something) so they pop out more? Awesome job!

Developer(+1)

I wanted it to look like an original Gameboy game so I only used the 4 shades of green, I tried my best with them but maybe i could've found a better way to make the player pop out using different colours in different places. Thank you so much for giving the game a shot!

This would be great on a small screen.

Simple but efficient! It really feels like an old retro game. Would have been nice to have bit of diversity in the speed of the cars coming at you. Congratz on making it!

Submitted(+1)

It's a pretty good game and I love your art! I think one thing you could have done to make this better would be to make the movement a bit more realistic like a car with like acceleration and deceleration and if you wanna be fancy with swerving. But Congrats! It's a fun game!

It is getting interesting/stressful from 20 points.
The music might have needed to be longer with a different pattern to feel less repetitive.

I would have hit the retry button if I could have started at a higher level (like an unlockable checkpoint or a difficulty level starting higher).

What score did you get in the end? I agree with the music, it's the first time I've made music so when i had something i liked I just stopped so i wouldn't ruin it. Thank you for giving the game a shot

I ended up crashing with a score of 21. The car was too sensitive for me at that point

I really had fun playing this! made it to 20 Score ^^
Really cool take on the theme!

Thank you so much for playing my game! I know I said it in your comments but your game is so good, I hope it gets more eyes on it.

Submitted(+2)

Thanks man I hope yours does as well!

Submitted(+2)

The concept is really cool, I think if you were yo do this again you should have made the other cars move faster and have the player go slower, as the difficulty of the game is not having your car go too far rather than miss other cars. But it was really fun and the music was great. Thank you
