Once there was a square, fenced-off area in the desert. Off-road vehicles loved to drive around it in circles and win the top prize!! Maybe you could do it too!

Follow the red arrow at the top of the screen.
Go in-between the flags.
Avoid deserty obstacles and other cars.
Do 5 laps.
Win the top prize!!!

looking for feedback on difficulty. i think it is pretty easy to get 1st place most of the time, but would love to hear what others think.

Pretty cool, but needs more indication where you're supposed to be going I think. That and the negative bounce back when rear ending someone is a bit excessive I'd say. Both are moving forward it shouldn't bounce back like a beach ball

Actually quite fun to play (and I do like the punishing collision response!)

That said, given you spritesheet budget, I had to do the "rotoscoped" version:

Sorry :]

In game (including some basic shadowing to ‘ground’ objects):

Cool additions, Fred.

Thanks for the remix fred! While I was purposefully going for a very "flat" look, I learned a lot from looking at what you did with the graphics. The rotoscoping is especially cool.

fun!

the second time I played, the countdown finished and I pushed the gas and my car didn't move forward, but was acting all weird, and for a second or two I was very confused until the car bounced backward enough to reveal a tumbleweed thing that had apparently been randomly placed in the same exact spot as my car's starting position XD

Got that as well (except it was a cactus!)

@kittenm4ster thought i had squashed that bug, but i'll take another look
