I've added music and sound effects!

This is working a lot more how I want it to. Still want to clean some things up and I'll need to get some playtesting in order to nail down a lot of the numbers, but this is a lot more like what I'm hoping the game to be.

Gather fuel before you run out! Fuel drains over time plus rushing uses even more fuel!

Arrow keys to move
X to "rush"

If you do try the game:
How does moving feel?
Did you use the Rush mechanic much? Did the cost feel too much or too little?
Was the fuel a good motivator and did it seem too harsh or too forgiving?
Other thoughts?

This is the same as 0.4.1 except without music.

Ok I actually went in and cleaned up a lot of the messy code! Also my girlfriend helped me understand the bitwise and vector stuff I've been struggling with. This plays pretty similar to the build I posted a few hours ago, but still needs a lot of tweaking!

Today I spent a couple of hours improving the game. Adding juice, tweaking movement, and stuff like that. The game is a lot more playable but still has a long way to go! If you try it, be sure to let me know what you think!

I made this game on stream in a 2-hour time limit (ok I made a few tweaks past the time limit but not more than five minutes after).
It needs a lot of tweaks to be actually fun but it technically exists.
One viewer called it "absolutely a game!"

How long can you survive?

I'll be making tweaks to this in later streams!
