I suck at parting!

Good job on shifting the paradigm from "don't bump into the other cars" --> "bumping into other cars might be a shortcut" --> "bumping into other cars is mandatory" --> "bumping into other cars is a puzzle"

Love how it slowly turns into a puzzle game. Awesome amount of levels!

I would not like to park on near this car. Nice puzzle game and gameplay was smooth.

My insurance company would not like the look of my driving =). Fun game with plenty of levels.

I am disappointed - by my driving skills, espescially at the later levels it was a pain in the A** ;-)
Micro machines as a puzzler, I had fun playing it :v:

Had fun playing it. The controls felt very smooth and also nice to see another take on the parking game idea in comparison to mine ^^

I agree with Sevansevan, you can really tell a lot of thought went into the level design and the progression curve. Great job!

Either way, was fun. Great submission

Amazing, what a fun take on the theme! Loved how it slowly turned into car sokoban, the levels were super creative, that final one where you have to push through, just great stuff!

Incredibly solid design, from the little steering fluctuations to the levels/puzzles themselves. Also super fun to try again and get more stars! Art and music fit perfectly too, everything came together in a very satisfying way here! Great job!

This is such a great entry! I was a bit frustrated because my dumbass brain couldn't grasp how the car moves in reverse, but maybe that's because I don't drive haha. Good job!

Impressive amount and variety of levels!

Controls felt great. I think I only got 1 star on most maps and 0 star on a few, so it could have been slightly less punishing for a jam entry imo. I felt like I didn't have a good idea on what ended the stage successfully, maybe would have been nice to have the parking spot light up when I was fully "in the spot" but then still need to stop moving. Great entry overall. I really like the more puzzley type stages.

I'm terrible at parking, ha, ha! Truly, the game is fantastic, especially for a Compo! It has all the elements well-designed, making the game wonderful and gradually incremental! I find it to be a very fun game! Great game!
