My score is 124! The controlls are FUN, though i also really am not good at this game haha, i collided with so many houses all the time :o

hcs-hades 2023-05-03 00:39

Score 188

The drifting feels great :)

The shooting part is a bit wonky, not sure what the fix would be maybe just leave the boxes in a straight line instead of having them kinda curve out?

A little music/SFX would also be really be great in this one I think, I just wanted a little more punch when I bulldozed every house in that poor neighborhod (Jams are a timecrunch so I get it :p)

Overall really cool idea and works pretty darn good!

This is hilarious. If you crash directly into something before time is up, you continue to lose points for repeated collisions even after the game is over; which is also very funny.

Made it to 488! That's really fun! Circling the middle and timing launches to hit faraway houses while constantly reloading my cargo was so, so satisfying. I was a bit confused by the off-center cargo, but it made sense as I played with it and added a nice aspect of not-only-drive-away-from-the-house-ness. I agree that even some simple sound effects would add a lot to this game.

Fun game, I like the chaotic nature of it! I'd have hoped for some music and sfx when drifting, would have made it even juicier, but I really liked it, good job!

Amazing arcady fun game. It feels very responsive and just enough chaos to not be frustrating or boring. Love the game good job!

I got 426, although it took me a while to figure out that the packages were just shooting backwards and not being slung around. I also wish there were SFX, not just because they make any game better, but because it felt like I didn't have time to actually read the popup text which is why I didn't realize your 2nd and 3rd deliveries were worth more until a couple playthroughs. Really solid and put-together game though, I really can't think of anything negative to bring up gameplay-wise, good job!

Very cool idea! I like the well rounded look of your game. Feels pretty polished for an LD entry!

What really bugged me, though, were the plainly wrong physics when decoupling cargo. They should keep their momentum instead of speeding off in the opposite direction.

took me a couple of tries to get to 485. Clean idea and good execution, liked the car controller and particles on drift, great job!

Great job on the game! I loved the minimalist and clean art style. The gameplay is challenging, but very fun! I missed having some background music and sound effects to provide some audio feedback, but overall, you did a great job. Congratulations on your game! (⌒▽⌒)☆

A little complicated, but a very fun idea!

andrground 2023-05-04 16:45

wow, quite a unique idea that results in very fun gameplay in my opinion! graphics are cute too, had a blast playing it

gmstochetto 2023-05-04 16:46

Good game to pass the time, it's quite challenging, the art is well done, and I didn't encounter any bugs. I missed having some sound effects, but it's okay. I really liked that the speed of the vehicle decreased or increased depending on the number of cargos. Great job!

xwilarg 2023-05-04 17:20

Great idea, takes a bit to understand how to move and deliver properly but then everything is very smooth, got a score of 678

lucas-taniolo 2023-05-04 23:21

Very fun, well done! At first I was expecting the cargo drop to get momentum from the truck drifting rotation, but as soon as I realized it just considered the cargo direction it worked out great.

emeraldalkemist 2023-05-04 23:37

Very interesting game. I think the truck was moving too fast, but I might just be bad.

darchankaen 2023-05-05 16:05

Nice game and funny delivery mechanic! In my opinion, with sounds and some music game will be better.

iqoribou 2023-05-06 01:04

Definitely one of my favourite game so far. Mechanics and controls are really fun, hard but fun. Super simple to understand and get into too. The art is quite impressive love the sort of top-down isometric you got going. 10/10 for me.

mediflect 2023-05-06 01:10

Really liked the pixel art! The controls took some getting used to but it was fun once I had it down. Nice job!

blazerdom 2023-05-06 01:11

Well done, love the physics! Only I managed to skip the results of the points scored several times by pressing the space bar. Need a delay of a few seconds before you can skip =)

aevek 2023-05-06 01:15

This was really fun! The driving felt pretty good. I kind of expected cargo to detatch and keep going in a straight line instead of being launched backwards, but once I got used to that it was fun. The visuals were clean, clear, and looked great. Some sound effects could have gone a long way to taking this from good to great though.

joao-marcello 2023-05-06 12:29

Great concept!

I liked that the house's colors keep changed forcing us to explore the area instead to throw the boxes always on the same house.

The pixel art is nice and competent.

Like others said, just add some Music/SFX and you game will be perfect!

Nice job!

ribout-horace 2023-05-06 14:43

Love the steering mecanic! The lack of music is a down point, but the rest is super responsive and feel nice to play! The graphism is really cute and fit the aesthetic of the gameplay which is pure fun. The fact that you can't slow down is key, but I also like how, some time, it's perfect to let a delivery get lost (-2 pts) so you can focus on delivering some other quicker! That's a good balance and make the game a little bit stategic while kept frantic.

bashem 2023-05-09 07:04

Score: 638 and counting. Love how the score tends to increase game after game, meaning that there's always something new to learn in terms of tactics and right timings. Very addictive. Excellent work!

aeveis 2023-05-10 03:52

oof, I had a hard a hard time! I think I don't like RC car controls but I could probably play more to get used to it. I'm very bad at judging the release time even when I'm driving in a circle.. I think I except them to fly off at tangents? Could be cool if there was an aimer guide or a item to show you where you're aiming perhaps. I do like driving around though. Nice job, keep up the good work!
