This is a devious little puzzler. Gameplay didn't click for me until I shifted the camera into an overhead perspective to see the grid better, and then I got a lot of what I didn't understand at the start. Otherwise, this is a great collection of brain teasers. Great work!
It's just a wonderful puzzle game and the graphics and sounds and gameplay are all great. I don't really play puzzle games, but I liked this one, it would be cool if you could finish it.
Cool little puzzle, I really like the gamefeel of the track building, it feels snappy and super responsive. Did you make the car engine sound with your mouth by any chance?? Great!
@vpro You know I did! :D
Super cool game! It looks very polished and enjoyable, graphics work very well. The user experience was a little confusing in the early game, with me wondering why my car can't turn (i'd expect the car to follow the track). Or at times I was wondering what's the goal of the game, for instance on level 2 i'm told to turn, like ok, but why? It could have been clearer for the player to have a clear goal to reach, to make it obvious "ah, I should turn". Also, the victory screen is not very celebrating, leaving me in a state: "wait, did I win?". With these details out of the way, I can say it is a solid and fun puzzle game, extremely well implemented!
The game feels very complete, with clear UI and intuitive controls that make it easy to understand what to do. The hints also helpful. Collecting and carrying stars fits the "collector" theme, and the many puzzles are challenging in a fun way. Good job!
Took me a while to understand the basics but it's pretty cool game! I think it's a fine take on the theme
was confused at start how to play but after a while got how to play and the game has great aha moments! well done, the only wish is to remove some tiles instead of starting drawing from the scratch again and again. good game!
@ghpxi You can remove tiles by drawing on top of them again! Not the best UX, I know. Thanks for playing :)
@caeonosphere ah, got it, I need to drag on them to remove instead of clicking
It's addicting! I really liked the puzzle concept, and the controls are easy to use. I didn't understand the rules right away, but I did get it pretty quickly.
Thank you for the nurishment :scream_cat:.
Great idea, lovely picture! I think the game is very complete.
Interesting concept. I did not manage to finish all the levels, but I enjoyed the atmosphere and graphics. I think it would help to have some indication of what turn needs to be made after you draw a road passing through a star. Good game!
I went back to version 0.2 and completed all the levels. At some point I started making decisions faster, apparently my brain adapted. Total score: 345. There's still room for improvement.
@volkolak That's great! As you play more, definitely let me know if you think the *game* has room for improvement as well. :)
This is really awesome!! Functionally sound and really clever puzzles! I haven't finished yet but I look forward to breaking my brain! I'm really impressed that you did this all in 2 days!! :muscle: :triumph: Your font choice and arrow design around the stars, and clear, easy color scheme really brings the whole vibe together, very professional choices there! :ok_hand:
One thing I'd love to see in an updated version would be that when the truck crashes or can't continue forward, the little stop/start should reset to start mode so that it's easier to retry your roads. I kept getting confused why I couldn't redraw anything until I realized I had to hit stop again, even after spending quite some time ingame LOL!
Kudos to your stellar work!! I'll have to let you know how much I end up with!
Great puzzle! The graphic, the audio are so polished, and I can't believe you've made so many puzzles during such a short time! Good job!
Really awesome puzzle game entry. My only nitpick would be that I kept wanting to have right click remove segments of the track haha Art, music, and game itself were all fantastic though. Such a great job! :D
Absolutely amazing puzzle game! I love everything about it! Would be really cool if you'd expand it and make it an app :)
Quite innovative puzzle game, the controls are intuitive and I like the aesthetics. Neat execution overall! :D
