I loved this! I would be keen for a few levels that are a bit faster

I loved this game, the way you interpreted the jams theme, and teh mechanics. Very cool and fun to play. Pretty frustrating too. I get to complete all levels! I just recomend to add in each level a button that allow you to go tothe next level instead of having to go back to the main menu, for the rest, very impecable game

Very cool idea for a game. I love the main mechanic. I think it just needs a bit more balancing. For example if i go between 2 cars the meter goes so fast up that I can only can do it once per level.

A very well executed take on the theme. I really like that sometimes the cars use a turn signal and then turn the other way.

The honking mechanic and the way the other cars react to it works really well, and it feels satisfying when you manage to use it correctly. I also like that you actually have to use your turn signals instead of just weaving between cars.

The game definitely punishes you for driving on the lane markings for too long.

The first level is pretty tough though! I gave it quite a few attempts, but I still didn’t manage to reach the finish.

very fitting and solid submission

This feels just like real life driving. Fun game!

An other game about cars !! Fun, but a bit frustrating for a few reasons : sometimes cars use their turn signal wrong, so it is a bit confusing, and the random positioning of the cars creates unsolvable situations. I think you could've mitigated randomness a bit, but it takes time lol.. Very cool game though I enjoyed it !

fun game.  level 1 somehow felt slightly more challenging than higher levels.  crashing was 10/10.  great audio, overall enjoyed it.

Great little game. Not complicated, intuitive, relatable subject matter. I do wish the visuals and audio were a bit more interesting. But really good game jam submission IMO

Hey another game about defensive driving! Really cool to see your take on it, it's definitely more accurate than ours haha. Good challenge! Since we can drive forward and backward I would kind of wish for the camera to follow me instead of going forward at a static speed, I felt like I could get trapped easily by surrounding cars but maybe I'm just really bad at driving (I really am)

Great take on the theme! It's on the shorter side, but a very solid build. Just felt like it could use a little more interactivity/action going on. Good job!
