Great use of the theme! I know it's a big ask for a game jam but I feel like a narrative component would be really cool. Well done!

Developer

Thanks! I don't completely understand the narrative component means tho

Submitted

For sure. I was thinking a story in between levels! Where your guy talks to the previous versions of himself maybe the first version is all arrogant, middle guy is really worn down, etc.

Developer

Ohhh

Submitted

Phew! That was tough but once I got a feel for it it's a lot of fun. Those car physics are so satisfying and I like the idea!

Developer

Thanks! :D Glad you had fun :]

Submitted

This game is so much fun and fits the theme perfectly!  I still can’t believe my past self was out here predicting my every move like some kind of time-traveling genius. So clever and well done!

Developer

Lol, thank ya :D

Submitted

It's really fun, thank god for the hitboxes so you can stay in front of your ghost even on a mistake haha

I have not a lot to say for improvments the game is very fun. Maybe just be careful of the constrast + pixel font on the main title scene, the text is not very readable

Great job!

Developer

Thanks lol. True the contrast for many text elements is really bad

Submitted

Nice game. I was always in the way of myself. : ) It was fun.

Developer

lol nice one! Glad you had fun :D

Submitted

Short but sweet game with a pretty fun concept. Adding collision to the ghosts definitely messed me up a little at first but it kinda helped in the end for me to sabotage my past selves. Art and audio are decent. Good work.

Developer

Thanks you! :D

Submitted

Sweet racing game, sadly it felt like I couldnt get to accelerate to my max as I could not foresee when my next turn is, I think if the camera was a little further away from the ground so players can see more of the map at once, would be better!

Developer

Thanks! I totally agree with you on this, I had time to overhaul the camera system but I chose to not, my bad! 😭

:P

silly en goofy

Developer

tainks :D

Submitted

GOTTA GO FAST 🗣️🗣️

Developer

🔥

Submitted

Fun and creative concept, and globally a good racing game

Developer

yay, thank u :D

Submitted

Cool racing game! Best part is that even if I lose, I technically win. The driving mechanics were really smooth!

If possible, please consider rating my game too.

Developer

Thanks! :]

Submitted

The collisions make the whole thing very difficult but very different from the ordinary "race against your ghost". I was surprised to keep trying again and again even if I was driving like if I was 100% drunk at each new try. 

Something is fun here, good job! 

Developer

Thanks! Glad you had fun :D

ah yes the pinnacle of driving

Submitted

I really liked the theme of "beat your own ghost isekai". Would have loved to have a way to mess with your past selves, since they get better and better. I feel kind of incentivized to drive horribly for 3 rounds and then try my hardest on the 4th.

Developer(+1)

True, it can get quite hard!

Submitted

Sounded like I driving with Lawn mover, but when I hit grass its not speeding up.Well made, GG

Developer

Lol true, thx :]

Amazing game! I really like how you can change your turning sensitivity as that really helped me out! The collision made it a more enjoyable game. Overall great!

Developer

Thanks :)

Submitted

nice game! but im really not good at it and the collisions made it so hard T_T, sill a lot of fun!

Developer(+1)

Lol true, don'tcha just hate it when you bump into your clone from behind! 

Submitted

Great job on the game, really clean and fun. Also very challenging. 

Developer

Thanks :D

Submitted

Managed to complete the insane mode. It was a fun short game. I'm used to to racing against ghosts of my past self in these types of games but I think the added collision made it a lot more fun.

Developer

Congrats!! Glad you had fun :D

Submitted

Great title and a great game! This is probably how id imagine how I would perform driving in the f1 just bumping every wall and oversteering everything x)

Developer

Thanks! XD

Submitted

I like the idea of racing your past self, and your game executes this pretty well! The controls are quite decent, and satisfying to play once you get used to it. Nice one!

Developer

Thanks dood :D
