Autobahn Monster by Indyo

[raw]
made by Indyo for LD33 (COMPO)
My crappy 48h game made with typescript and Phaser in order to allow comfortable playing inside the browser.

You play a frustrated business man driving home.
Braking too much shooting too much lasers or crashing into cars makes him go mad so you better take care.
The more his rage level increases the more he turns into a furious monster until he finally blows up.

The goal is to finish the level and keep the driver calm by not crashing and breaking too much.

Controls (also explained on the external site):
'left' / 'right' - Switch lane.
'down' - Break. Adds rage.
'space' - Shoot lasers to destroy the super small toy-like cars. Adds rage.
'enter' - Restart level.

The graphics are a little bland, and it doesn't really bring anything new to the table. IT also doesn't really connect to the theme. However, I did play it for a while, because it was pretty fun, despite that :)

I played to the end (I think? Looped back to the start), it was quite fun! I actually felt the visual style, though simple worked well.

Took me a while to figure out which cars I could destroy and that I had to dodge the other. Kind wish I could just blow them all up. I feel your pain, Joe.

Nice idea, rage meter makes you think instead of spamming lasers like most of the similar genre games would expect you to. Would play more if there were more levels, you could develop the idea further imo. Good job.

Fairly fun with a nice gameplay loop and level structure, the plot is pretty clunky though.

There's some nice ideas here, I think the execution can be improved.

I managed to finish the game. The look on Joe's face when he got angry was awesome! The game was a little short, but it was easy to learn. Well done!

It didn't feel very thematic, but it was very funny. I liked all the humor.

Hehe, I'm usually on the opposite end of this. So it's VERY pleasing and a little bit scary how good this feels.
The game feels very polished. Nice!

I liked the way shooting had a cost, gave this a bit of a twist I thought.
