How does your game fit the theme?
This is a racing game where you are trapped in a time loop, racing against yourself.
(Optional) Please credit all assets you've used
I made all the assets myself during the game jam (except for the font that I mentioned in the description of the game)

I like the self-racing aspect, but I think you could maybe change the camera angle to align with the controls. It makes my brain spin, but it's still fun!!! (Could you please playtest and vote on our game? Thanks so much)
Thanks for your kind feedback ๐ค
(& of course ๐๐)
driving game with isometric style so cool!
If possible, can you please rate my game and leave a comment too?
Thanks for playing it ๐ค
(& lol, no need to ask. I try to rate everyone's who plays mine ๐)
I don't think I've ever played a racing game as an isometric game before but it was pretty cool (a little trippy too). Got lost a bit on the branching area haha.
Thanks for giving it a shot ๐ค
Gameplay is pretty fun, but there honestly isn't much incentive apart from your own desire to go as fast as possible to go fast on the first loops.
Yeah, you're right. I tend to make games easier in game jams in order to not frustrate inexperienced players, but I'm always left wondering "did I make it too lax/easy?" ๐คท
In any case, thanks for your honest feedback ๐ค
The gameplay loop is pretty fun, I like how the cars all have collisions so you can mess with your past selves to win the race. However, the past selves' behavior seemed to change at every race (sometimes they fell off the road, sometimes they finished) so it was always a bit unpredictable.
I had fun, especially as there were more and more cars on the track, by seeing the chaos unfold. Well done!
I'm glad you also liked the fact that your past versions can collide (some people have told me that it apparently frustrated them, so I've been pondering about it ๐คทโโ๏ธ).
Thanks for your kind feedback ๐ค
orthogonal camera is definitely something i wasn't expecting to see
nice game
Hahaha come on, there's always at least one ๐
Thanks for your feedback and for giving it a shot ๐ค
Nice concept, having to beat your previous car by either just being faster or messing them up with physics can lead to some cool strats! It was funny watching my ghosts colliding and doing wacky stuff, though that made the getting-in-first part pretty easy. Great job!
Thanks for your kind words ๐ค
cute idea, i wish there were more obstacles, and that if you fell off, it would put you back on the track rather than resetting the game. i think that would encouraging improving each round and learning the track, rather than just going slowly the first 4 times. not only was it really easy to push the ghosts off, they also usually drove off the track themselves! i like the idea but it could use a lot of work :>
Thanks for the honest feedback ๐ค
first driving game I saw in the jam. you really nailed the movement. love it!
I'm glad you liked it โค
My ghosts kept driving off the track, so it wasn't hard to beat them. The driving itself was pretty fun. I like the control setup with the camera angle. The moving obstacles were fun, if you take it further, more of those please.
I'll keep your comment in mind. Thanks for the feedback ๐ค
Nice game, i had some hard time with my azerty keyboard so you could probably take that into account, or simply add movements with the arrows, but other than that good job!
Oh, you're right. I should have considered how the controls adjusted to different keyboard layouts. I'll keep it in mind for the next time. Thanks for pointing it out ๐ค
Similar concept to my game
Thanks for trying it out ๐ค
Hi. Really great racing game. I liked it a lot. It was hard to finish the first lap. Great job.
Thanks for giving it a shot and for the nice comment ๐ค
Long time no play to a driving game. . I remember the last time I made a driving game, the control feel was simply terrible. But your game has achieved good control within 4 days! And I like the feeling that it can compete on the same stage with my past self. There is just one thing: the appearance of the big pendulum and the super narrow passage in a racing game feels a bit strange.
Thanks for your honest and kind feedback โค
It took me a really long time to complete my first loop. I died so many times at those pendulums, and when I finally made it past them I ran off the cliff where the track splits and narrows -- I almost gave up right there. But I'm glad that I didn't, because once I had previous versions of myself to mess with I started to have a lot of fun! It became a game just to figure out how to knock my old selves off of the track without wrecking my time or going off the track myself. I was thoroughly entertained when I noticed my purple self was consistently knocking out my green self for me, and slowing down in the process! This is the foundation of a very fun concept, I think you should keep on developing it. =)
Cheers!
Thanks for you encouraging words & I'll keep them in mind โค
It took longer than expected to beat lap one, and then when I realized I had to race myself I thought victory would be impossible since I had a strong completed lap.... then I pushed myself off a cliff XD. Smooth sailing from there.
Hahaha I'm glad you were able to overcome the challenge. Thanks for giving it a try ๐ค
Cool concept with some cool visuals. Ran well on browser for a 3d game. Took me a few too many tries to complete my first lap which prevented me from quickly getting to the special part of your game. Maybe make the pendulum section more generous and instead just have racing your clones naturally increase the challenge over time could avoid this problem. Great effort to get a fun 3D game submitted!
Ngl, I risked a bit by developing it in 3D and had to sacrifice the audio for time sake, but I'm satisfied with the final result. Thanks for trying it out and for the nice comment โค
Hello! I enjoyed your game. The art looked super good, the 2.5d look is very memorable. I wish i had had the option to go a bit faster while driving to add more risk to the game. Also it was fun but a bit broken that you could push other cars off the map. Congrats on submitting!
I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for your honest feedback and kind words ๐ค
I like the simple art style for this one, plus all the obstacles and mechanic was pretty cool, Nice Job!
Thanks for your kind words ๐ค
