Very cool take on the theme, compost is serious bussiness. I would have liked to see a bit more ahead when I drive but I guess the minimap makes up for it, really cool that you made a minimap as well!

Developer

Noted! We are thinking about zooming the camera out a little bit, but not too much so player will still be able to see the carcasses in some detail. Thanks for your feedback :)

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you PcKaffe!

Yeah, camera could be a little wider, We'll have to better tune it! Good thing we added the minimap, game would be terribly frustrating without it!

Very smart use of the theme and I loved the side-on illustration of the poor critters in the truck, and it being a progress bar too, lol

Thank you so much for your feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the game :)

Lol.. RoadKill! Love it! Good images too, love the silhouette of the truck as it starts to fill with animals. Good stuff!

Developer

Thank you!

By the way, I played your submission and I think it's very cool! :D

I found this quite relaxing and enjoyed filling up the truck with the roadkill.

Like everyone else mentioned here the one-minute timer is pretty short. But overall I really liked the idea of the game and I can see a lot of time and effort went into the game. Good job :)

Developer

Thank you for playing and providing feedback!

I'll tune the Timer for sure!

The map is well designed and I appreciate the slowing down on sidewalks and the minimap, that's a nice touch. I agree with another comment about the time limit, it's a bit short as it is and would benefit from a bit longer for each day, but maybe also increase the fuel usage rate a bit to balance out having longer to collect animals.

I do like where you took this theme, you've taken it in a different direction than most and have made a sad part of life into a productive and positive outcome. Good work!

Developer

Thank you for the comments!

I actually want to take this mechanic and add a story on top of it! 

The tunning of day timer is really necessary, I just hadn't have the time to do it! But the jam community feedback is of major help! 

I'm really glad you liked the interpretation of the theme!

Thaaaaaaaanks!

I really really like this game and its idea, a bit weird though how they are sustaining an entire business on the off chance that there is roadkill nearby. My only critique is to be more lenient on the timer and also where does this game take place so I know what side of the road to drive on lol.

Developer

Thank you for your comment plackett!

Well, I don't know how it really works in real life, but in the article I found regarding the theme (http://cwmi.css.cornell.edu/roadkillfs.pdf) it was said that this service was actually hired and paid "a good money"!

Regarding the side of the street in which to drive, I laughed when I read it, because  it has never crossed my mind! I really wouldn't know, so it's up to you to decide (I personally drive all around like a maniac in the game so...)!

And the Timer needs to be better tunned for sure! Maybe even a "day/night" effect... but that's for the future!

Thanks again!

Hi there, your source on your Google Drive is misconfigured. Your source needs to be everything a user needs to download the project, open it in Unity, and hit Play to play the game. You are missing the Assets, Packages, and ProjectSettings folders in your source. Please update it as soon as you can.

Developer

Hi Yang! Thx for the heads up! I'll do it as soon as I get home!

It looks good now :)
