I saw that on twitter! I thought, that would not have anything in common with balance but now that I played your game, i noticed the little dude on top of the truck and EVERYTHING MAKES SENSE NOW!

Really, really nice idea and well done!

Developer

Hahah, thank you :)

Submitted

That was a lot of fun to play. It's weirdly satisfying just watching the guy tumble off the truck at 150mph haha. The font used was nice and the simplistic graphics worked well. Sound needs a little help though. Great game overall!

Submitted

Great entry, very fun to play. Really liked the bonus score with the guy bouncing further lol. Nice physics, gameplay was good too. Overall, an apt entry for the jam.

Submitted

This is a fun little game! Enjoyed the style, and also watching my guy bounce along after I failed haha.

Submitted

Neat game! Graphics are minimalist but fit the gameplay pretty well. The sounds are a bit jarring, especially the collision of the dude on the road. He may consider a seat belt a worthy investment.

Submitted

A solid game!

  • I like the trade-off you can make here. Faster speed and a further distance in the bonus but it becomes harder to dodge, slower speed and there's a lot of cars
  • The slow-motion at the end before speeding up again when the score is displayed is pretty cool
  • It's a good thing that aren't any speed traps on this highway especially when the driver likes to increase my minimum speed over the speed limit (then over the truck's design limit, )
  • I personally enjoyed flinging the guy off the road and watching him fall endlessly into the void over and over


I never expected a flying simulator in a driving game. Thanks for making this game!

Btw, are you using Linear colorspace in the project settings? Some browsers can't do that so it might be the reason why some people can't play.

Developer

Thank you for this positive feedback :) I don’t really know about linear colorspace usage in my game so I will check it. Thanks for this catch!

Someone revoke the truck driver's license please, he's clearly shouldn't be behind the wheel. (Or he might be the best driver in the world getting a truck to 214mph)

Unfortunately, I wan't able to play the game on Chrome, but i read the comments and decided to give it a rating!

Developer

What was the problem with trying this on Chrome?

Submitted

I'm not sure, it said i didn't have correct graphics API. I've had this problem a few times

This game has great physics with the steering and the Truck Guy's moving. The sounds leave a bit to be desired and the aesthetics could be improved slightly, but otherwise great!

Submitted

This was great.

Fun game, good job :-)

Thank you! This is my second finished game so far and actually it’s really nice to get feedback on my work :)

Submitted(+1)

Well, Game Jams are perfect for that ;)

Submitted

The gameplay and theme where really good, but I feel that the sounds blurred together and kinda sounded kaotic.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, I’ve done all the sounds in last two hours and wasn’t able to make it good in time :(

I think overall this game is really good though
