I couldn't tell where I needed to go to deliver things, definitely needs some work in the art department.

I can see what you are going for, but I am really confused as to what does what, and where I have to go. I would suggest a tutorial, some signs, or more specific art to help with that confusion. ;)
@falsebracket thank you for the honest feeback. I wanted to include signs by each of the restaurants but ran out of time.
For others who run into the same issue: the **restaurants each have their own color**. Residents live in green houses. **When you pick up an order** from the yellow restaurant (WcRonald's), it needs to be **dropped of at the green house** with the falling yellow blocks (particle effect) in front of it.
Yea,the building color is quite confusing, but the camera work and animation is well done, overall it's a pretty cool game
I had to make 2 runs with tutorials to understands what to do. You don't have any graphics but when you understand the game, you see where you must go. At a gameplay level, i think you must consume gaz when the player accelerate and not when the car move. In that way you can make give the player 2 ways to resolve the level * Go fast and deliver thing on time but consume more gaz * Go slow, consume less gaz, but take the risk to timeout your quests.
You must votes for others games to be ranked, the more you votes, the better you are placed on the gamelist and have chances to be voted back.
My biggest complaint is that you need to make the gas meter last a lot longer, especially since it's hard just to figure out where to go. The first time I played I ran out of gas before picking up any food. Adding a minimap would help a lot. The car controls felt pretty good, although it tips over very easily.
This is a good start, but it's very difficult. I can't figure out where to go, and I don't know how to get more gas. It would also be nice if gas only decreased while you were pressing W. But good job getting as much done as you did!
I like the idea of a delivery game and I think it could become fun to dash around trying to make deliveries on time and prioritizing the ones that would pay out more etc. For this entry, I found the collision behavior to be a bit crazy as my car seamed to go a bit all over the place and with the boxy art I wasn't too sure what was good or what was a hazard if that makes any sense? Still, good work and see you back for LD45? =)
