10Seconds Racer by orangepascal

[raw]
made by orangepascal for LD27 (COMPO)
You got 10 seconds to race as far as possible ! Grab nitro's, or time power-ups to increase your distance... try to avoid other traffic ;)

Game was done in only 5 hours, had a very late start, but it's fully playable, sound, "music", and graphics are all there..

lots of idea's for improvements.. but only so much you can do in 5 hours :/

Simple is always good in my book. Great job for 5 hours. The powerups appear a bit too fast for my eyes and I have a hard time collecting them but that's just me :)

Woah. Even for a 48 hour game this would be a real accomplishment. In 5 hours?! Brilliant. I mean...skid marks? You had time for details like that in 5 hours?! Amazing.

That's really awesome, especially given that you made it in only 5 hours. I'd like to see a post-compo version of it.

Like that the time powerup just freeze time instead of adding, gives more of an urgency that way. Great art, sound and polish, especially for only 5 hours.

It's almost annoying you did that in 5 hours. :-) Great Job! Really fun and the feel of the collisions with other cars is spot on. I would play this on my iphone for an embarrassingly long time. I would say it is too hard but for a 10 second game I would say it ramps up perfectly.

Awesome game, simple, fun and very very addictive. It's hard to get the power-ups so I guess I'll have to keep training.

Staggering work considering it was made in five hours. Looks great and controls really well, with a nice degree of polish to everything involved.

really love how this voice says "time","nitro","game over" :D
would love an option to mute that background music/noise thing, though ;)

Love it. Simple and fun. I'll be back to play this. I like the graphics, the sound the gameplay, everything. One thing though, does it not save your high score? I couldn't see it if it did. Well done.

Very fun little game. It invokes the "just one more try" syndrome that makes you spend far more time playing than you planned.

@DreamofSleeping : it really needs high-scores, or at least your personal best, but didn't find time to add that .. maybe in a post-compo version

It's really cool! I was so happy when I got more than 200 score!! :D
One doubt: is the speed a vector of the direction (x+y)? Or is the vertical speed always the same???

Really nice work for 5 hours!

Grabbing the powerups was really hard though, they move pretty darn fast.

That's nice game but needs some work on the enemies generation and may be if I have more view to plan where to go :) but for 5 hours that game is amazing :) Good Job as usual ;)
