This is pretty close to having everything it needs to being a full game. I love the visuals, and I'm impressed with what you've created in 48 hours.

It's a cool idea, and you did manage to get something done that isn't even bad. I especially like the graphics, music, and the felling of trees (when not holding forward).
Generally your entry just lacks polish and bug squashing. It would have added a lot to let the player know wtf is going on, and what he's supposed to do :P
I agree with shrt -- this is a pretty good proof-of-concept level prototype. In terms of both graphics and audio I think this is one of the more appealing LD13 projects; it's just a shame that you weren't able to finish.
Looks great, but is missing a goal so I didn't find it much fun to play. The falling snow was a nice touch.
The graphics are fantastic, and I can't imagine the music possible being more fitting. This is an absolutely delightful little toy, brilliant, but it would (of course) been better as a realised game rather than a toy. Even so, I love this.
Very cool, and it's nice to see someone using Mac and Unity. Although Unity assists greatly with model loading and collision and physics, I still think you did a good job getting a good amount done in your time limit. Obviously what's lacking is the actual gameplay.
I really enjoyed driving around and making roads, even made one deep into the ocean! Would have been a great final game. Good polka like music too.
Well, it LOOKS really cool... the all-white visual scheme is nifty. And actually, if it were done it would be a pretty nifty game. The idea of snake with the ability to jump over your lines is kind of cool. Truly, for an LD game, it's not all THAT unfinished. If the reset button worked (doesn't for me, anyway), I think you'd pretty much be a perfectly finished LD entry! With a fairly low polish score, but not bad elsewise! I think you just expected too much out of 48 hours if you think this is a give-up scenario.
It was actually really addictive, I was really impressed with the graphics. I couldn't ever reset the level so that was annoying but it was interesting enough that I was willing to kill the window and restart it (many many times...) It was a bit confusing to figure out what to do, but simple enough.
Kudos
I can't believe you made all the graphics, music and code in two days. I'm super jealous :).
I like this game and wish it had more "goal." One thing I noticed is some trees are super strong and break my tractor, but I saw no way to tell which ones where going to do me in. Also, it is funny to drive off the edge and watch the tractor build a road down to infinity.
very nice entry ! even though there's no real goal in the game (apart from lasting as long as possible) i find it very polished. i don't know how unity and your other tools ease 3D dev but the game is technically impressive. very good gameplay (unless maybe when we are creating a bridge) and game experience, good work :)
I liked: Great visual and audio presentation, Food and Journal
Could improve on: Mostly technical stuff: it ran pretty sluggish on my not-so-slow machine even when I reduced the graphics, sometimes it let me cross roads, "Reset" did not work
Puts the "fun part" back in destroying trees ;)
you can make some awesome bridges on top of the trees...
Beautiful Graphics! Even the most basic of game objectives is needed. Has a few bugs here and there. I look forward to a finished version.
I wish I could build my roads with the steamroller and then race on them with a car! ;)
like the last minute snow theme. too bad you didnt get a chance to put a game into this steamroller sim. At least it is fun to drive around and make arch bridges and nice asphalt through the trees!
