**Very good!** fun, I loved the sound too

Neat game, at the start I managed to forget I had the other car somehow haha.The rythmical beat that changes slightly at times sure adds some tension to it for me somehow. Very splendid delivery game overall! :)

Great game. My only opinion would be, the speed of the cars doesn't match with the music rhythm.

Really enjoyed the music. Took second to understand how to play the game but it was nice

I love the cutesy artstyle! For some reason, I really struggled understanding what I was supposed to do at first. I didn't understand that I was supposed to drive into the buildings in the top left/top right to pick up the resources. The tutorial also took a long time to explain that, so I spent a while bouncing off the houses trying to figure out what to do. I think this may be because the score is covering up the milk building?

Anyway, after figuring out how to play, I had a fun time! The car controls are enjoyable, and I particularly like the explosion effect :wink:

Great entry! I liked the combination of driving yourself but also managing two cars at once! Music is awesome as well and I appreciate the inclusion of a tutorial.

Nice game. Simple and funny. I had some troubles with controls, but got used to it later

The game play is very addictive. My main problems are with the multiple trucks and trees. There is little reason to switch switch cars because they keep going for long distances and crash as a result. The trees can be placed very close to the farms which makes it easy to get killed when getting eggs or milk. Otherwise, fun game that I might even play for fun :)

Really neat game, i liked the concept of switching betwen the two trucks, although i sucked at keeping them both alive :p

stefan-funke 2023-05-02 08:43

The driving was fun! Especially bouncing from the buildings :laughing: !

For me, the switching mechanic was confusing and not very intuitive. Sorry, I think it would play smoother with just one car. :sweat_smile:

Good job on the game!

Edit: Also 2 bugs that I noticed: - Somtimes I don't collide with buildings and drive right through them. - One time, when the 3rd car exploded I lost control of the car I was driving, because the other car became active.

That is a fun game, especially the driving. And adding an online leaderboard is always cool, good job :slight_smile:

Very fun game! Was actually quite hard too!

iliade 2023-05-02 15:31

I think it's not my style of game, however the concept is well done, the music is quite fun, the controls are nice to hold. It's a good game! Congratulations! :)

madr 2023-05-02 15:51

Top notch art style and car handling!

forager 2023-05-02 16:09

Nice idea to have you multi-tasking between two cars. Amps up the hectic nature of delivery - granted it is quite difficult and caused me many fiery deaths. Good job putting in a tutorial. The car drives well. Fun stuff!

polinachrr 2023-05-02 16:15

funny game! it took me some time to understand how to drive also i love the art!

milano23 2023-05-02 16:56

Nice game. In the first level i couldn't find the dairy farm until i died 3x. Afterwards the game became more fun. It was easier to destroy the second and third vehicles and only use one to make the deliveries. Fun game.

braveskin 2023-05-02 20:12

That was good! The controls were satisfying once I got the hang of them and could anticipate which direction to turn. Very unforgiving if you so much as touch the wrong thing, but I think it does a nice job keeping the leaderboard competitive. Fine job!

xbcw 2023-05-02 20:13

A bit confusing at first but when i got the hang of driving it was a fun game.

mtwhateverest 2023-05-02 20:24

Loved it, it was a lot of fun to play. The sound effects and music work really well. Great job! :)

hwaet 2023-05-02 20:26

My brain hurts, in a good way. Switching cars definitely leads to some great chaos. The piano player in me wants to be able to play both cars at once. This might be one of the best character controllers I've played so far. Nice fine tuning. Great job!

remus 2023-05-03 15:54

I liked the concept a lot! It was hard to turn the cars independently and have them do useful stuff all the time. :D The music is simple but very nice and fitting imo. The graphics are great as well. Overall, this is a very strong and innovative entry, good job. :D

rusty2117 2023-05-03 20:07

Nice concept, enjoyed the music and sound effects. Controls were simple and easy to get used to. Sometimes a little hard to tell if the car is about to crash. Overall fun little game.

nuin 2023-05-03 21:43

Cool game, my brain doesn't work right so it was hard for me to control both of the cars

russ-moonbase 2023-05-04 01:35

The controlling 2 trucks idea is pretty unique and this game is challenging! I stopped paying attention to one of my trucks and it ran into a tree!

Good game!

ruslana 2023-05-04 10:13

Great little game! simple solution of the theme, nice art, sounds and gameplay.

toc 2023-05-05 19:01

Good game! Controlling 2 trucks was doable, 3 was too much for me. Good call implementing the high scores, that really matches well with the game.

Cute and clean.I liked juggling between the delivery trucks and the soundtrack and sfx were great. However, there doesn't seem to be a failure screen and you get an error report popup when you try to S switch between trucks after they're both destroyed. I blew up my trucks three times and had to reload the page to restart each time, which was a bit frustrating.
