Fast

[remvst]

Hey guys, I'm not sure if it is still allowed to post non flappy bird clones, but here is my latest game: Fast.

 

It's kind of a work in progress, as I'm trying to polish it as much as possible, but the game is pretty much done.

 

I made Fast for Clay.io's Got Game HTML5 competition. I was really proud of my game from last year, even though I didn't win anything, so I decided that this might be the occasion to create a new cool game.

 

All you have to do is to drive as long as possible without destroying your car, but I still tried to make it a little bit more than a simple scoring game (though I love these).

 

You can play 4 game modes at the moment:

• Free: basic endless scoring mode. The only goal is to go as far as possible.
• Time attack: same thing, but with a two-minute limit.
• No crash: in this mode, you have to go as far as possible without a single scratch on your car. Hit one single obstacle, and the game is over.
• Challenge: this mode is a little different. Everytime you play, you are given three challenges. You can only complete these objectives. Once you complete one of them, it is replaced by a new one

If you guys have any feedback (good or bad), I'd be happy to read it and try to improve on (even on the graphics).

 

You can play the game at http://fast.remvst.com/

Have fun

It runs fine on Firefox.

I got surprise by the crash effect, it's really well made.

Good job.

I love the graphics and you can tell that a lot of work has gone into it.

 

On first go I clicked challenge and read half of the text before it went away! Not enough time to read it all. Also I think as challenges is the least straight forward game mode it should be listed last not first.What about locking some game modes to give you an incentive? Also what about a game mode where it's like the film speed. If you go below this speed  you explode.

 

I think the music should stop when I click pause.  The screen seems so small for desktop. I don't feel like I can really see what's going on and be absorbed by the game. The sound effects are a good but a little bit dull.  It would be nice to have an engine noise, screeching. People shouting "what the hell are you doing". Just litlte things to make it more exciting. The text could vary from just saying ouch all the time.

 

For some reason the car always drives to the left at the very start when I just hit the foward arrow.

 

So despite it looking really great and having a lot of potential, at the moment I'm finding myself not wanting to keep playing. But I think with some tweeking it could be an excellent and exciting game. It's not like I consider myself some kind of expert, it's just I find it hard to get feedback myself on my own games so I'm trying to be honest and give good feedback to others. So If I play a game and don't want to keep playing and I'll try and say why.

Wow, another game of the legendary remvst

 

Nice game! I enjoyed this. You could add buttons on the pause for 'retart level' and 'go to menu'.  

 

Hey guys, I'm not sure if it is still allowed to post non flappy bird clones.

Haha, i'm more happier by the game not be another match-3 game

Looks good, seems to work on android stock browser and chrome mobile on a medium spec device, although not very fast.

 

Whenever i crash against a car, the background music stops in Android Stock Browser, Chrome seems to not play the background music at all, but plays the sound effects correctly.

Thanks for the very detailed feedback, I do agree with all of it, so at least I know what I have to do

And thank you all for the feedback, really good to see that people took the time to try it and tell me what's wrong

The competition has been over for almost a week now, and the winners will be announced on the 29th, but since the number of plays is taken into account, you can support the game by playing it at http://fast.clay.io/ (or just rate it).

 

I keep updating the game and tried to follow your feedback. I added a marathon game mode (which is super hard to finish), made some tweaks.

 

If you guys have any ideas on how to improve it, let me know

I played it and I think its cool.

Only improvement: game forumla is a bit too simple(not offending!), it will put off alot of potential players.

Make it a bit like GTA2, so you can actually turn left/right, so you are driving in a 2D map instead of only going up/Y-axis.

Other than that, I think the game is awesome.

Sublte improvements since the last time I played but they have made it much more enjoyable for me. The bigger screen makes is much better for desktop.  I don't remember seeing the arrows at the top of the screen before, so maybe they're knew. But it made the game more playable.

 

A couple of things though. The car still veers off to one direction at the start. One of the longer texts that pop up when you crash go behind the writing at the side, and the bottom of the screen gets cut off unless I go into full screen mode.
