Everything is fine, but in my opinion the music mute option is missing so much in this game or it may be little bit quieter.

Nice take on an emerging genre. I like that you're a little car doing battle with a bunch of giant trucks. Destruction and doom to all jacked-up pickup trucks! Especially when they have devil horns.

It's easy to control and it feels good to upgrade your weapons over time. I played for longer than I care to admit before I eventually drove my car into the pileup on purpose to end it. (Just the right amount of jank by the way, love how they start stacking up, hilarious.)

My main critiques would be that I feel like most of the weapons are hard to actually hit anything with, except the auto-aiming turret of course; the bombs seemed to almost aim away from the enemies, and the forward-firing laser, well you generally want to be driving *away* from the bad guys, so shooting forward isn't that useful. More important though, I think the difficulty should've ramped up a little more over time for this style of game--felt like I could've kept going a lot longer and I wasn't under any real stress mostly.

Anyway, fine work!

Cool entry, thanks for this game ! It would have been nice to increase the speed of the other cars for exemple, to have a curve of difficulty. I killed myself because I was to powerfull for them at this point :)

Thanks for your feedback! @mrschlag2 @polymathld Indeed we have planned to readjust the difficulty after the voting period to give more challenge to the experience.

Good entry. I would have wished the map boundaries had a physical obstacle to prevent movement further. Invisible boundaries causes confusion when you're chased by kazillion trucks :sweat_smile:

A nice endless game! Very nice graphics, concept and execution. I've played until lvl22 but i could go on for much longer, i could delay the inevitable for ever (i guess :P) I think that aspect needs a bit of tweaking because it's a bit over powered. I would love to be harder and easier to die. Other than that very cool game nyanpierre :)

A very good and un fun little game, the DA it's cute and i love the diversity of cars ennemy, i love too the animation of weapons but i am a litle disapointed the car just disapear when they die.The game is easy to play and it is very fonctionnal... In Download version. In Web version it's hard to move (but not to rotate) because we move in fits and starts.

I congratulate you on this game and look forward to your next game!

This was a lot of fun! I really enjoyed the look of this game and the ability to upgrade the different weapons. I played a couple of times, and would love to see more!

Very nice entry! Its rare to find a solid 3D game, let alone html5, thank you for this! I really liked your sound design and overall flow; however, it would have been nice to have the game speed up over time, or have the enimies gain on you quickly and you have to use some element of critical thinking, or the boost, to get away from them.
Overall I really enjoyed playing this! Well Done!

Love the 3D art! The monster trucks with devil horns are especially cool

I would love to see what it would feel like with some extra work put into your truck's movement. I'm specifically daydreaming about the driving style used in Rocket League. I think that could add a lot of life to the game!

I enjoyed playing this one! I found that is was very easy to avoid the enemies if you constantly moved in one direction.

This was a blast! Really appreciate that it's HTML5 and you had some fun design choices here. Love that one weapon's use is maximized by driving backwards, that's a great touch. Keep up the good work!

overwhelming at first but it started being real fun a couple rounds in. I think the upgrade system is great and all the crazy weapons are the star of the show. It's satisfying to gank a whole pile of pickups on your tail and swing back around to scoop up the pile of XP. typically I don't enjoy spammy dance music but the track grew on me. next time add some concrete barriers around the play area too instead of invisible walls

another thing, the environment has some nice little details - the houses, the woods, the lake with a bridge over it. the ramps dont help too much against the horde but they are pretty badass to jump over

Really addictive! I had to stop playing as I got to a point when it got too easy, but it was great fun an I would love to see this expanded upon! It was fun to have to go backwards to attack properly, made it more challenging.

At first, I thought about suggesting having drops like magnets and life regen, and what do you know, they appeared just a few moments later! I encountered what I believe is a bug though, where I passed right under some of the hearts and magnets (spawned on plain grass), and in the southestern corner the border was treeless making it look like an invisible wall, but overall a really great experience and great fun!

Good work!

I tried to grab it again and again so I think it's bugged.

Good idea and nifty little arcade shooter, it has a lot going for it! I Think the only think holding it back is the car movement, it doesn't feel that great. With an improved car character controller, this could easily be a fun little mobile game I can see myself playing!

Good entry!

Ok, not the best score, but I'm still proud, lol.
Great game! I love the upgrades, but It's not easy to tell which weapon is "weapon 4" for example.
I think weapon names like "laser beam" would be more appropriate to know what you're upgrading.

Put weapons on cars and it's instantly addictive. I love this!

I kind of want to exercise some sort of control over the weapons?

Awesome! This was a fun game to play! View feedback points:

- Instead of giving your weapons numbers, call them by their name, e.g.: Upgrade Laser shootrate, Upgrade forcefield range, etc :-)
- The icon of the car at the top left implies that there are other cars you can choose
- I did not really understand the values on the title screen until I clicked it after a view runs, maybe some indication that the number above is related to the three buttons would have helped

The graphics and music are nice! Really makes me think of the 3d games from the early 2000's :smile:

Had fun with this one good job, was pretty funny seeing the cars stack on top of each other :)

Great looking game! I really like the low-poly graphics.

To be honest, your game could be **greatly** improved if you added more visual effects. I mean enemies should not disappear immediately after their destruction :boom:

Game was really fun! I liked the music and art a lot. The player feels good to control but but wish I didn't have to stop to turn. I liked the enemies but wish there was more feedback when I hit them (knockback, flash red, etc) and its kind of easy to pile them up. The weapons were unique and I liked the high risk high reward of the electric force field. I wish more of the weapons had manual controls like the boost, maybe if just the first weapon auto-fired? Overall I had fun with the game and hitting many enemies at once with the electric force field was satisfying, great submission!

Fun idea for a game. The upgrades were already addicting, and I had fun watching the enemies stack up so much the game started to lag, but it was scary when they hit me and their damage stacked.
I found trying to do damage to enemies while dodging a fun challenge, but one they started to really stack up the evading gets boiled down to kiting in a circle. I think adding some knockback to the enemies when hit could give the player more options for crowd control, and might help add a feeling of weight to the hits.
Dodging the crazy horde of enemies was fun, but I couldn't help but want to not stop to turn; I wish it was a little faster paced so I could pull off some stylish drifts :)

Fun little game, with some nice 3D graphics. I liked getting the upgrades and corralling the massive number of enemy cars. Wish there were a bit more feedback elements, like death animations on the cars and VRX showing when your boost is back.

Very cool game! The controls are simple, the upgrade system is well put together, the art and SFX make everything quite clear.

Thanks for the game I had fun!

I can't say that I'm a fan of driving, but I've noticed that during the holidays I like to rent a car. It gives me freedom of movement and I can easily cover long distances. I can recommend the excellent service (Exotic Car Rentals Miami)[http://premierautomiami.com/], which I already used a couple of times when I visited Miami. I like the provided choice of cars.

Funny. If you really need to find a good car insurance company, then I can share the one I use myself. Maybe it will be useful to you in any case. On the website http://www.iisinsurance.com/cheap-auto-insurance-in-fresno-ca/ there is more information about the terms of insurance, if that's important to you. Good luck!

Hello I think about buying a car for a long time, I have saved enough money. Since I have a large family, I would like to look at large cars but I have not found good services in Australia yet. Do you know any?

Great, I think buying a car is a very important and wise purchase! When my child was born, my husband and I also needed to buy a car urgently, because public transportation is inconvenient and we bought a mitsubishi delica at https://www.bestpeoplemovers.com.au/our-vehicles/toyota-make/ ! I really love them as this service is awesome! I advise you, these are the best Japanese cars for you!

I agree that buying a car is actually a complicated process, and it takes time to find the best one that'll be affordable, since everyone has a different budget. Personally, after learning the [2023 Toyota Sequoia Price](https://avandacar.org/2023-toyota-sequoia-release-date-and-pricing/), I consider buying this SUV, and I think that this car can be quite interesting for people who are into off-road driving. So I'll definitely keep up with all the latest news about that to make sure that it's actually worth it.
