Core Mechanics
Throw yourself in front of as many cars as you possibly can and avoid the police cars. You get money for every car you hit but you'll get a penalty for hitting police cars! You get more points for getting hit by faster cars. Red cars are heavier and will get you slightly more points on average.
Art
- The omnipresent Synty Simple Town for Roads, Building and Cars
- The handy Synty Simple People for the player character
- The awesome Lowpoly Style Forest Environment for everything else!
- Sound? Nope! Why not, would have made the game way better?! My dumb ass forgot about it :cry:
Story
You are Randy. Randy is a simple man, all he wants of life is to be able to kick back, drink a couple of cold ones and never ever spend a second of his precious time working (Also he can't find any because "THEY TOOK ERR JEERRBBS!"). So whenever he's short on money he likes to cheat his insurance company out of theirs. Yes, he's getting himself hurt badly... but at the end of the day, isn't having money all that matters?
Personal
I have no idea how much hours I put into this. All I know is that I'm dead tired and work will suck tomorrow! :smile: But I'm glad I finished in time and am pretty okay with how it turned out. Yeah, it's not really a full game, no progression, lots of issues and no sound but it's something :rainbow: Hope you'll enjoy it for a minute or two and please let me know what you think! Should i work on it some more and make it into a more complete experience?

Thats pretty Fun! The concept is hilarious! I dont think my high score is that high... but its something.
I really like how you achieved the ragdoll and car physics. It's really fun to try cause a big accident with multiple cars.
It's like crossy road but reverse. The graphics also has similarities with that game.
I also found the controls a bit confusing but the game is simple and fun, nice entry!
- The controls are a bit confusing, sometimes they don't do what I think they should do.
- Almost every time that I got hit really hard and was launched out of the screen, I wasn't able to come back, neither walking nor teleporting. It punishes players for good plays.
- The teleport mechanic isn't clear on how it works.
Things I liked:
- Very funny theme!
- The physics works wonderfully to make it fun and engaging.
- The point system is addictive: I think I've played for 30min trying to beat my highscore. I swear that I reached 300k!! But I closed the window before taking a print xD. If you keep track of the highscores here on the page and update the top 1, I'm sure it will engage people that already played your game to come back and beat the best score.
- Nice work putting two lanes with two ways. If one gets too crowded with stopped cars you can go to the other one to get those sweet fast red cars.
It's one of the ludum dare games that I have played the most, nice job!
