Road Rage by Jimjam
Road Rage is a top-down traffic simulation game that gets out of hand very quickly. As a traffic officer, you must run around and manage a city in which humanity has embraced new levels of driving horror.
Controls: Move with W A S D, perform an action with space. The game contains tutorials.
Submission notes:
I did not create the music for the game - I've used an awesome freeware music track from an external source (https://soundcloud.com/8th-mode-music).
Mods/other Ludum Darers: Please let me know if this isn't ok, and I will upload a build without the music. The Jam rules seemed a bit ambiguous regarding whether this was allowed or not.
Thanks!

@recursor: so true! I'm from South Africa, and like the UK we drive on the left side of the road. I knew this would mess with all the Americans' minds :D Seriously though, it would be good (and not too hard) to add that option, just to keep everyone's sanity!
The AI worked really well and was a big win for this game. though sometimes it would be difficult to stop the traffic as they'd hit me and just push me backwards.
Apart from that very cool game and very interesting mechanics. Also very good level design!
I'll also eventually include more maps, and an actual difficulty curve :P
Thanks,
Jem
