One schoolbus, one ticking bomb, only one way to- forward. Godspeed.
Godspeed is a simple game for Playdate, inspired by the movie Speed. You play as a bus, speding down a highway full of obstacles, and if you slow down, or crash too much, the bomb explodes.
Released on itch.io. Check out gameplay here.
