Nice game
Wooow, that was amazing, loved the creativity
Yo! polished, fun and on theme!
fast and polished, good game!
Wow! This game's premise and mechanics are so well thought out! No bugs, and its so polished! I like racing games and now the drifting is in my blood XD
The music is great and visually it works! This is indeed a strange place and you nailed the feeling of motion. The mecanics are a bit hard to grasp at first but once you get the hang of it it's very fun. Great job!
