woah, fabulous spritework and music
this game is really polished and well put together, i love it

Oh, this is a fantastic achievement. I've enjoyed seeing the GIFs of it on Twitter but missed that it actually released!

This is one of those Pico-8 games where the devs really went the extra mile when it came to polish and presentation. Even just the title screen is lovely. The split-screen multiplayer is quite impressive, even aesthetically.

Well, this is going right to my favorites, where I keep all the Pico-8 games that meet such a high standard of quality. I imagine the Christmas release date has everyone busy, so this hasn't yet gotten as much attention as it deserves, but hopefully that'll change!

I love Rodyle! He's pretty fun to play as, and I love the weapons he has.

I'm not very good but I'm getting Kirby Airride vibes from this which is awesome!

this game is sucking away my sanity...

all gold checklist -
fireant ✔
caramelo ✔
lemo-8
rodyle ✔
dolphish ✔
g. sigan ✔
dark matt ✔
tb-system ✔

Impressive! Your pretty good. Do you have any cool events while playing this game to share? I like to hold accelerate to after passing the finish line so I can get a good rocket shot.

all gold on g. sigan and 5/8 characters! unfortunately the ones left are caramelo, lemo-8, and dolphish and they're all really really hard to get all gold on

its the oppiste for me, I am pretty good withh dolphish. I am only good with her as a racer.

How does Caramelo place so high in every friggin' race!? He's got bad stats, and bad weapons!

got dolphish and caramelo back to back. the only one left is lemo-8...i was dreading this day...

ALL CHARACTERS ALL GOLD!!!

omg this took so long... what an achievement. this was honestly really fun and i think other people should give this a try

@supreee That's amazing! When I see this is when game dev really pays off :)

I have the first half of characters done! I'm really bad at the second half lol.

I just noticed how shield is more offensive than defensive. I've killed tons with it.

Got the other half done!

You know what that means! I beat the game! Wlep, second to do that. My life is now without a purpose. :I TB-System was easily the hardest to win all gold with. He sucked away all the sanity I had left.

Looks very different on older versions of pico

*welp

This is really great; thanks for sharing!
