How did you interpret the themes?
Train Driving Sim x Arcade Shooter

I wanted to clash two opposing genres: a slow, methodical train driving simulator (high realism), with whacky, arcade-style shooting game. Making skilled gameplay a successful juggle of these two elements at once.

It was amazing; I liked the shooting and driving parts, although the many controls confused me at first.

This is the first game I’ve given a 5/5 in every category. Outstanding work.

It’s rare to see a game made in just two weeks for a jam that can compete in quality with the demos featured at a Steam festival. 12/10

Love this game so much. My favorite! From shooting ads to shooting invading aliens and monster. No words can explain how I admire this game.

The PS1 art and texture works so much. And i think that is what makes this game ran smoothly on web. 

At first, the genre mash seemed not mix very well, but when you enter the latter stages, it explains itself. You played as doom train, literally.

Also the Japan setting is sooo on point. The polish too. 

Favorite submission! Great job!

So very well polished! Great effort, it is too much fun shooting at people (in this video game) even if it racks up -pts :D

hahaha its too tempting to shoot people, but i didnt want it to be violent in that way, just more cartoony. Those are your passengers, after all! But I also let you shoot a couple and get away with it, if you are a good enough driver. The company will let a few mishaps slide.

This is incredibly polished. You did an amazing job with this. Everything in this game looks and feels phenomenal! As a civil engineer, great job on this shooting train game :)
