The very good progress you have. The game reminds me of old Driver games. Like, you should get as many cash as you can driving in a big city. Same is here.
Few suggestions: car handling is quite hard, especially at a low speed. And I think you can make some indicators to the goal building, arrow above it or something similar.
Interesting game, the balancing is well done (at least for first few days).
The graphics and audio were good. Although I had a bit troubles with vehicle controls (yes, I flipped around way more often than I should). Anyways packages delivered! One thing that could be improved is camera controller, let me show you:

The camera could do a raycast to see if something is in front of it - and move towards the truck. This could prevent such situations where truck is not visible. Although this totally happens only when you follow roads!
It was actually quite fun for those few minutes.
Keep up the good work.
Good Entry! Its hard to controll the truck! hehe I think should have a mark our some think to sinalize the delivery house. Good work !
Good work here! I love the day night cycle, I can always appreciate those! Graphics needs some work but still, solid gameplay. I found it very difficult to figure out where I was supposed to go, the little arrow kept pointing directly up a steep cliff.
This was a nice idea, but I found it annoying that I had to handle the deliveries in a particular order, driving back and forth from one side of town to the other. I then got told that I earned $2600 and spent $2500 on fuel, which seemed a little unfair.
Nice idea ! The handling is weird though and doesn't feel that right :c Otherwise well played for a 72hours game !
Well this is a pretty fun game. Solid concept, good choice of music that helped set the tone. Graphical style is decent but there are some issues. Most notably the ground seems to flicker a lot while driving around.
Cool idea but the car physics are just horrible :D
Would have been awesome if the driver would yell at you when you roll over which you do a lot.
It was a bit hard to understand exactly which house the indicator was pointing at.
Good effort!
Interesting game! I like that you went for a story in the map environment. However the truck is very unruly, I guess this was the expected feel but men it was hard.
Are the gaps in the road unintentional? Because I totally trusted you that I wouldn't need the backspace. Up until I fell below the road.. haha!
Great effort!
I like the visual, and atmosphere of abandoned city, it's great! I also enjoy to delivere the packagaes, it was hard not to flip the truck;) Good entry!
It reminds me to "Paperboy" a little bit. The physics is great and the graphics are clean and simple. What i really like is the feeling of the car and the night / day cycle.
I like the idea, but the car controls are kinda horrible. Still, good work!
Pretty impressive little world considering the time limit, the handling on the vehicle could use a little work but otherwise it’s a fun time.
Great game for being made in 72 hours. You all did a great. I love the graphics and I even love the songs (even though you never made them, it was a good selection).
- Make the links in the tools used (in the game) be either selectable or an actual link - Make the music not start over once you leave the page and go back - Make the restart (T) also be the R key (or make the start over key (backspace) be R and then T be backspace) (anything to make one of them R will be ideal)
Overall, cool game.
I enjoyed rolling my truck around this little town. I presume there is no ending? I played for 3 in-game days. It seemed most efficient to deliver the 2 or 3 heaviest packages. Maybe a combo multiplier could help incentivize delivery of the smaller packages.
I really had fun playing this one. The music created a fun atmosphere and the game is addictive. I thought the handling was perfect-- it's not a sports car after all! It feels like a lot of work must have gone into this game. Great job!
