Grand Theme Auto by tsjost
=========> If you cannot control the embedded game above, click on the black bars on either side to assign focus <=========
Control with WASD and space for 'handbrake' turns. Run over all the good themes in order to downvote them, leaving all the bad themes sailing to the top...
Written in C++ in a few hours with SDL2, compiled to the web with emscripten.
After giving up on the game, I decided to continue with a few hours left. I had to integrate Box2D to handle collisions, but still use the vehicle physics I had written, which has resulted in a lot of weird collision bugs.

Funny idea about the themes. What does spacebar do? I only got WASD to do anything.

Spacebar does a fancy handbrake turn that is so powerful it doesn't even slow your car down!

It's exactly what I hoped it would be. Collisions for the non road bits are a tad bit wide, but you made the compo.

Oh how I watched you struggle, but you got something out there in the end! Collisions are a bit buggy as you know, and the hitboxes are larger than they seem. Could do with some kind of opposition so you have the potential to lose - maybe have PoV driving around upvoting all your downvoted themes? :P

Yay, I'm killing rectangles with numbers inside! Not bad.

I like the smooth handbrake steering.

If only there was some cops to hunt you after a killing spree! Great idea :)
