I am curious to know how you did the path generation!  It appears they are presets but I wonder if there is a way to make it totally procedural.  My game started looping the same segment over and over at some point and stopped spawning popcorn, though it was fun up till then.  The music is pretty jarring, but I figure that's the point :laughing:.  Moreover, it took me a while to realize that the reason the speed was changing so often is that time was slowing down when I had the option to go on another track!  In any case.  I think this game is the start of something pretty dang cool, there were just a couple issues on understanding what is going on when you first start playing.  Got really into it!\n\n@justuspan I believe Space is the button for switching","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"paulhocker","author_uid":"1005112","time":"2020-10-06T03:24:22Z","epoch":1601954662,"modified":1601954662,"text":"this was - - - interesting -- what crazy person left all the popcorn on the tracks? seriously tho, the mechanic was very simple to pickup but in the end it was not very fun. perhaps if it was not so cluttered and there were more pickups to maybe make it fast or slower, or something to give you ahint to what track to go to next, etc. thanbks for making this.","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld47\/225768-319860739fe286ec5e22b33b39c73ad8.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/superduperpacman42.itch.io\/rocket-rider","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/superduperpacman42\/RocketRider","text":"Youtube"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"65480","g_author":"1025572","g_event":"LD47","g_eventkey":"76","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"282874","g_title":"Rocket Rider","g_status":"PVT1","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"3","g_site2_node_id":"225768","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"225768","n_urlkey":"282874","n_parent":"212256","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/47\/rocket-rider","n_slug":"rocket-rider","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"25572","n_created":"1601850582","n_modified":"1601855113","n_version":"671291","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":225768,"parent":212256,"superparent":9,"author":25572,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2020-10-04T22:34:40Z","created":"2020-10-04T22:29:42Z","modified":"2020-10-04T23:45:13Z","version":671291,"slug":"rocket-rider","name":"Rocket Rider","body":"The Rocket Rider roller-coaster is out of control!
