Fun as heck. I wish ramps didn't completely obstruct your view, and I wish you could get enough air to reliably fly over obstacles.

I love this! There are a few things I wish were different.

Trash Cans and Street Lamps should not count as lives. In fact, they should give you points!
Sometimes there's an unfair amount of objects.
Sounds would have been great!

Point 1 is debatable, point 2 I'll take, but...
There are sounds. In fact every obstacle has its own collision sound.

Loved the art art style! Having the loose boxes on the back seats does a great job of making it feel chaotic and clearly conveying the motion of the car. The music is great too, felt very fitting.

There were a couple of times where a wall of pedestrians would spawn without any large enough gaps, but otherwise a solid silly game.

I like the concept, it's unique and I haven't seen much like it, especially the cardboard art-style. The title menu is a bit too small (idk if that's just due to my screen or not), but everything else is solid, nice job!

The idea is simple but quite addictive! The use of cardboard is a brilliant idea, and the graphics are well done. Good job!

Hitting the "Carnage mode" toggle does deactivate lives and score, so you can vehicular manslaughter to your hearts desire ;)

I've not thought about it that way yet, but that's an interesting take.
Maybe something to make into a small game itself.
