Apocars
A destruction derby game inspired by Carmageddon and Mad Max for the Apocalypse Jam 2022
Goal
Reach 10 checkpoints before everyone else, and try not to total your car in the process! There's only one level.
Controls
WASD/ZQSD: Movement controls for car
R: Restart
M: Mute music
Additional info
Which car you drive doesn't affect speed or damage, it's purely visual. Your car and its skin is chosen at random.
Known issues
There's a bug where sometimes checkpoints will spawn in a way that two bots constantly trigger it, resulting in an instant loss.

Finally there's an actual reason to be afraid of the dentist. His car is an absolute monstrosity, and so are his manners.
The Butcher uses his trusty Formula Student vehicle to cut up some meat with that blade at the front. Makes one wonder what kind of meat is in that meat grinder..

Very cool concept ! I like the simple micromachines like handling and the chaos that happens since the race is more of a checkpoint rush in an arena rather than laps around a track this captures the derby vibe very well. The music is also very catchy, but the best part to me are the car designs, they have that same insane carma look and humor to them :D
Only issue i had was the camara angle that sometimes hid the car behind the backgound, other than that no real problemswhen i tried it.
Overall, cool stuff ! Now all it needs is more arenas and cars :P
Oh hello! Thanks for checking out my game!
I love that you recognized the carma look lol, it's deffo what I was going for.
I agree that the camera angle is awkward at times and I could kick myself for not bothering to fix it last moment :p
Cool that you stopped by to play it! ^^
No problem dude ^^ i try to check out what fellow jammers release on itch from time to time whenever i can.
Being a carma fan too i can say you nailed the style for sure these could have come straight from carma 2 XD
Haha i know the feel last min fixes can be a pain especially when on jam time, so that’s totally fine :)
