I imagine that the high sensitivity when driving the truck was thought to be a challenge in the game, but I felt it was a little exaggerated, apart from that I didn't see any other problem, when the control of the vehicle is fixed I have no doubt that it will be a game incredible.
Hey @Alexsandro, thank you for the feedback ! Yes the car physics was intended to be a challenge, but we get that it can be frustrating! We may tweak the sensitivity a bit down in further builds :)
Very nice mood & music. Love the art as well. It is quite hard to get the hang of the delivery truck tho.
The voice lines are a great addition, goes perfectly with the mood.
cool game, it was quite hard to control the truck but made me laugh blasting peoples packages into space
Nice game! I had a lot of fun drifting the truck around, but it took a bit to get used to the controls. The world looks great and the voice acting is top of the line, haha. There was an issue with resetting the game state when trying again from the game over scene. I had a goal circle that was staying in one spot on the screen, no mater where I looked.
We made a very similar game!
Really enjoyed driving around with the car, fun moving and zooming around! Silly game overall, especially with the voice lines. Nice job!
@generalflunder yes there is a known issue with restarting the game, thanks for the feedback ! Can’t wait to stumble upon your game :D
The car physics are a bit too floaty, if that was tweaked down a bit it would be reallly good. The art direction on the city and overall assets is great. The camera could be a bit stiffer, it gave me a bit of motion sickness, but the package POV is great lol.
The controls felt really terrible for me, I spent most of my time stuck against trash cans or houses, and when I finally got back on the road I would bounce all over the place and end up stuck again.
The camera doesn't help either.
Shooting packages was also way too powerful : even the shortest click I could do I had to be about 5 truck length away, barely could see the target. Most of the time the package went flying through the ground, houses and most props to end up at the opposite side of the map :/
I did manage to get a few ones and got up to about 350 bucks before running out of gas.
I think I would have liked a more controllable truck, the challenge could've been there even with good maneuverability. A minimap would've been really helpful too.
The voicelines did make me laugh though haha !
I like the concept! I also kind of like the floaty controls, but I felt a bit motion sick when turning (which is not usual for me). The camera system may need to be tweaked if you decide to push this concept further. I thought being able to see the boxes bouncing around in the back of the van was a really nice touch!
@patatenouille We are sorry that the controls didn't work for you.
The car was intended to be a bit touchy to control but we understand that it can get very frustrating ahah. We will look into tuning the controls a bit in further builds. Glad that the voice lines cracked you up, it still does for us all the time ahah.
Thank you a lot for this quality feedback !
Nice art style! I like all the mechanics.
The idea is good, I managed to deliver few packages - run out of gas few times too.
Main problem are controls, it was extremely confusing and uncontrollable (it's not about not being on road - but being stucked half of the time breaks the immersion). Graphically it is nice, but the blur and such is a bit over-did (together with controls and fast rotation times it did feel a bit nauseous.
Nice work on the details though (boxes bouncing in the back) and there is some math behind delivery plus funny notes. Had a good laugh!
This was way too sensitive for me. I liked the looks and the concept was very solid. I just couldn't figure out how to aim at all.
It was pretty tough to drive and I eventually got stuck on a garbage can. But, I really liked shooting the packages. You added a cool time-slow and the audio/vfx there was pretty sweet. Nice work.
bah c'était sur en fait
Nice entry 👍 motion blur was maybe a little bit on strong the side
The elevation of the map is a real plus and make the level way more interresting
realy difficult take in charge of the physic of the car, but after the challenge to master come, nice job
honk honk best feature ever :joy: the car was really difficult to handle at first, but I really enjoyed the game!
Very wacky game, we were having a great time in VC playing this game and listening to the voice acting, great job with the humor of the game!
This game is very interesting, thanks for making it
Really wacky game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 53 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. https://youtu.be/3W4lG4WsUMw
@drazil100 @zgragselus @rjdrag @rabiller @barce Thank you all for the feedback !
Now since every comment revolve more or less about the controls, we will definitely have a deep look at making it more controllable. We recognize that it also doesn't help that the streets are narrow and sidewalks high, making you bump around alot and ending in someone property.
@mezix @smoky01 Thanks !
@jupiter-hadley Thank you for featuring us in your compilation ! As a side note, you could have also launched packages from the right by using the right click of the mouse :D. It is written in the main menu, but you might have missed it ^^
@thunderchief You know I didn't connect the dots until just now but it totally makes sense why this game was difficult to control. You were getting bloody 408 on the old version of my game when I was barely able to break 120. You are a precision god! I think part of what happened with this game is a classic case of "The developer is good at their own game" where you tuned it to what generally felt right to your team without enough consideration of a more general player trying to control this game for the first time.
I will definitely be interested in giving this another shot if you decide to make a post jam version (assuming I see the notification of course)
The voicelines absolutely killed me, almost fell of the chair laughing! That, and the fact you can actually make negative wage made my day, thanks!
@drazil100 It is totally my bad, and it's the 3DArtist speaking here : I have played way too much to it to make a really good video, don't feel so bad while watching my POV, just like comparing yourself on CS GO with 100 hours played with a 1500 hours player hahahah Thank you for your kind words and your message Thank you too @dzugaru
@drazil100 As a matter of fact I also curse our own game, I am better at your game than at my own lol. I will definitely post an update message when we make our PostJam release, you might get the notification then. By the way I just saw that you published a postJam version, let's see how much I can do this time :D
This is definition of craziness :D A bit confusing at fisrt what to do, where to pick up and where to deliver. The first marks where to pickup new boxes and where to deliver them appeared after like 2 minutes for some reason. I would preffer way more bit more conventional camera, as it is quite crazy :D Also sometimes going thru fences, roads etc made me bit confused. All of that said, I enjoyed this! The art and the world you have created is very nice. Great job
@jin9310 Thanks for the kind words and glad to hear you enjoyed the sillyness !
Hahaha, this is so much fun! Although I don't understand what the voice-over is saying, to be honest, the game is really difficult to control, on par with my own game. But it's a great experience!
Wowza, I love the aesthetic. Great job in such a small amount of time.
Great game !
