From the screenshots I thought you ignored the theme, but boy was I wrong :) Great idea and great execution, the controls work well and the graphics and music do their job. Also bonus points for creativity. Why use a car when you can have a piano? :D

Oh god, this is like a quintessential ludum dare game. That drifting is so sexy. This should be in a list somewhere

Got to about 15-16 but had a blast playing. Really quite fantastic and extremely well executed game. Music, graphics, controls all came together more or less perfectly. I try priding myself in these comments to have some constructive critique, but it is a bit hard this time around. There's not much I would consider changing or tweaking...

If anything, I failed to understand the controls the first two times around, but since the game was so quick at restart it didn't really matter. You could test having the first two passes in a slight slow motion. Or even have the whole tune be one of those that increase in speed over time. Might be so now, but that I didn't get far enough.

The second thing I came to think of, though it clearly wasn't an issue for me was that the paths existing now seems to be rather few. It could be possible to add 360 turn around and some other paths while still keeping the style, width of path and general resolution of the game.

Full starts all way through.

Pretty fun game with catchy tunes, scored 47 on my first game, so I think it should a bit harder. By the way, I never used the brakes, I didn't feel they were necessary, don't know if that's what you wanted.

Good gameplay and use of the theme. The difficulty progress is a little slow and it seems that braking is not really an option but what racing game needs actually brakes...

Holy shit this is addictive! The controls feel just right, and the music is perfect for this game.
Would you mind sharing the source for this gem?

Also, could you try working around Avira Antivirus recognising your game as a TR/Dropper.Gen virus?
I just ignored AV for the sake of LD, but this might keep many many people from trying and rating this masterpiece.

A very interresting game with a strong concept :o !

I think that some random could make the game even more addictive ;)

Anyway, I love it, good job !
