Really fun to drift around and the art was really nice, love the cars and the flat color pallet and the drifting effect. I wish there was a mode where penalties did not matter. I found it kind of hard to control the cars. What I ended up doing was starting the level then slowing down to a manageable speed and then just drifting slowly through the level.

alright!!
This was super fun. The drift-vs-go controls felt intuitive to me almost immediately which is really neat. I loved drifting through the levels and would have kept going if there was more! I also didn't experience the camera issues that some other folks did - I'm not sure why, but the camera just kinda cooperated for me (maybe it's that the controls clicked for me immediately).
I do agree that "go to the next level automatically" "background music" would enhance the experience here.
Also: the combination 3D / 2D style is so cool!
What a great-looking game! From a strictly visual perspective, this looks like a professional release.
I saw some of the same minor camera issues as Noh, but they mostly plagued the early levels while I was still learning the controls. Once I understood the driving mechanics, the camera was much more cooperative!
I feel like there are a lot of precision driving/time trial games, but very few with analog directional control like this. I could see myself sinking many hours into a longer version of this. Nice work!!
The movement in this game is crazy! Its super fun to drift around the levels and barely hit the cones. Though I had some trouble with the camera. Its jitters and clips around almost constantly and its almost impossible to play at times because of it. But the game is great when that doesn't happen :)
Hey! Thanks so much for the feedback, the camera was super tricky for me to get right on this as it kinda needs to follow the player "ahead" of the direction they're driving, which made it slightly harder to control, but I never found it to be too jittery. Definitely something I'll fix in an updated build when I have more time :)
The game plays really well and the graphical style is on point with this one! A bit lacking on the background music part but otherwise this is a solid little game!
