I wasnt able to run this. When I clicked the .jar nothing happend. Also you should rename the 'Web' link to 'Android'

Running the windows version in console gives me the following error:
image loading error
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at ludum.racing.LudumView.<init>(MainActivity.java:136)
at ludum.racing.MainActivity.main(MainActivity.java:23)

Android version works fine though.

timtipgames, your android device may be outdated. I've changed link, now it should work

Even though the game is not finished, I played it anyway because I like racing so much :P

Well, not finished, but a great work in physics, so... maybe for a next game ? :)

not a game, though really nice rope dynamics. Also i encountered bug: when ball collides with wall, rope falls in crazy dance forever

Too bad the game isn't finished ( tested the android version, worked fine but i had black rectangle around the car). the idea of the game is appealing. Good luck for next time !

my android is the most recent Android L on a nexus 5, so that's probably not it. Still getting a parsing error for the apk :/

I like the physics of the car and the way the controls are set up.

I really like the idea of the combat racing, should give it some more development and flesh it out!
