YES. This game is absolutely the best thing I have ever seen. The camera angle is very shaky and spazzy, but it makes the game all the more harder.

Really enjoyed that! I got a bit stuck at the very beginning but holding space sorted me out.

Fun idea, but it's hard to control the tire.

I really laugh on this one. Don't know if it's intended WTF but I had fun trying to control the wheel. Tricky physic.

Nice intro.

It's unfortunately hard to actually control the tire. But I had lots of fun trying to get around.

I was a little bit put off by the posing at the beginning of the game... then it started. As much as I want to be one way or the other, I can't deny I had fun playing it.

I had way too much fun just trying to figure out how to control the thing, and then the destructive power of such an AWESOME weapon over the poor helpless villages filled my heart with joy. Also, it reminded me of the ridiculous movie "Rubber."

I couldn't read what was on the side of the tire, but given how much destruction and mayhem I caused I can only assume it said Firestone. Very fun.

Nice concept implementation! I spent a lot of time spinning the tire in circles, until I picked up the feel for how to keep it spinning. While the goal and sense of progress are lacking, I felt invested in getting the tire to spin and had a blast smashing things.

thought it was a helicopter game for sure! turned out to be a very hard to control tire! lol. not bad though!

love the switch up...wasn't expecting the helicopter's payload to be a tire. The physics were pretty interesting as well. My score was a measly 4500.

I think you must have seen Rubber. I liked the intro a lot. The controls felt like I was maneuvering the wheel on the left edge rather than the center.

Really good game totally made of an unconventionnal weapon ! The controls are a bit really hard, but it makes the difficulty !

Hah, at first I was like, "Oh great, this is going to be super serious." This is awesome.

Wow! I honestly thought I was going to be controlling the helicopter. :P

I got 10500, but I had a really difficult time with the controls and physics being off a bit (holding space helped).

Hilarious! In the tradition of Surgeon Simulator and Goat Simulator, this game quickly turns into a delightful nightmare in the best way. Great work!!

hehe, clever. left/right tire control was touch and go, but highly amusing game. fun audio. well done.

I scored 16500. This felt like a walking home from the bar simulation...lol. Great reversal of expectations in the opening sequence. Graphics and music were nice and fit well together. Very fun game, great job!

LOL...I really loved the transition from the intro to the playing of the game.
Controlling the tire was hard, I don't know if you were aiming for that or not.

Nice bait and switch there. Chopper game.... oh wait wtf?

Haaaaa, nice joke. The tire wobbling is interesting, but trying to maintain speed AND hit the houses on the far left is not exactly possible.

Great opening :p though you should definitely change the camera - I literally never get motion sick and I found it hard to deal with

I wish the tire could stay upright a little bit easier (I just kept mashing spacebar) but otherwise really funny/great game!

soooooo dang good. I really didn't think it'd be that great and then it happened. great job!

Oh God that was hilarious. XD Physics are a little wonky, but the premise and presentation are priceless.

Insanely hard to control the tire, but it was still fun trying to get it where you wanted it to go. The physics were decent as well.

Who's idea was this?! Would've loved smoother controls. But really, give yourself a treat after making this if you haven't already. Goodness!

Caught me completely off guard! I really like the concept of the game but the controls were a bit difficult to get the hang of.

very funny idea but controls are terrible. It looks very fun but its way to hard to play it. Maybe its not the controls but the weird physics.

really nice! The tire is a bit difficult to control, but I guess its realistic(?). The music reminds me of some crazy games from the 90's, which is always a good thing.
