Good fun! The driving model could be a bit better. The car should have an inertia and whe you turn, you can slide a bit. That would make it more interesting. But still good.

Thanks for the feedback. This game, like most of my game jam entries, I work on them a little after jam but never get around to updated them on itch.io. I definitely added some good touches to this one, to the point I should probably go ahead and update it.

If I recall right inertia exists but I tightened it up so much that you can't even tell. I think I did that to compensate for deficiencies in my AI.

I understand. I also sometimes go back to my old projects but sometimes I leave them forever, mostly uncompleted. Life… :) Too many ideas to realize, too little time!

Thanks! I used the SID instrument plugin with LMMS. You can't go wrong with a good funky four bar progression.
