As for the theme, I have to admit that I'd been considering a similar option, but it wouldn't have turned out so well. The letter left me hurting a bit (it rings awfully close to home, even if it's not that dramatic).
Congratulations!!
The guys in the green and yellow cars are vindictive little sods..!
SerialVelocity: Really :O which road did you choose?? I must fix that jajaj
Yeah I'll do an extended version now that I got more time ^^
If you have time, please rate my game too! I would really appreciate it :)
Speaking of which, the driving's surprisingly challenging. After failing to reach her in time, I really wanted to play again, but after waiting for the menu to descend (while hammering on different buttons to speed it up) it seemed to have gotten stuck on the instructions screen. I don't see anyone else making these comments, though, so perhaps it is Firefox's fault?
I also don't know if the game just took ages to start or if pressing enter or something made it start. Tried pressing random buttons and I think enter made it start.
I recognized the intro music from the title sequence in Stanley Kubrick's film "A clockwork orange". It was composed by Henry Purcell in 1695 for the funeral of Queen Mary II of England. A good choice to match the game's story.
