Nice concept, but control are too responsive and it is hard to control the truck. It starts to drift every time i trying to move left or right ))

@amarokczukay Thanks for the feedback! Don't blame yourself, unfortunately, my truck controls implementation was overly complex and I couldn't fine tune them in time, so it's hard to control even for me. I'm glad you had fun though!

I couldn't figure out how to pick up deliveries, was I doing something wrong? I tried backing in and driving in to the garage right below where I started but I couldn't grab any semi trucks like the person who screenshotted above did. I did zoom around for a bit though, which was fun!

@kristinamay hi! Yeah, it's not very clear, we didn't have time to better indicate the garage. This building on the bottom is the garage Truck-Off.png Maybe you didn't go far enough into it?

The controls took a while to get a handle on but I liked the details with the camera movement. Good concept but was a little confusing to play

Good effort, vehicle controls are hard to make! I definitely would simplify the movement controls a bit. I would also make the roof of the garage become semi translucent when you go in—I couldn't figure out which way I was facing or what was going on in there once I went in and got the trailers attached, and was stuck inside for a long time. I would also add some sort of uniformity in how the trailers get attached—it seemed like my trailers got attached kinda sideways, which resulted in me turning to the left when only pressing the accelerate button, going straight when I pressed the right turn, and not actually being able to turn right at all. The music was nice though, and I liked the touch of the honking horn! Overall a good foray into a top down driving game!

Like others have mentioned the controls are a bit too responsive, and i wish you had added some ui indicators for where to go as i got lost a lot trying to figure out where to go lol! Another thing is i kept getting trapped in the garage, so some transparency or a look through shader would have been nice to have there. Overall though it was fun trying to drive around, nice work!
