Driver's License by Sanguine
driver's license is a game about a super buff guy who has stranded on an island due to a freak car accident.
Items can be shared with other players by throwing them into the water. There are several endings but only 1 will be available to you when you don't get any items from other players. The more items you give away the more you will receive.
WASD to move
Spacebar to jump
LMB and RMB to pickup and throw items with left and right hand
Throw 2 items against eachother in mid-air to craft

Updated the game slightly after uploading because of a game breaking bug that gave everyone the same island

It's awesome that you can send stuff to each other and the crafting is very satisfying. the story made me a little bit sad though :'(
Got all kinds of lovely messages from the other contestants too. :D
I just love sending random messages to people. It makes me feel all giggly, fuzzy and warm inside. I do think there could be more crafting combinations and the combining isn't as smoothly as it could be. Sometimes one of the items stays in my hands forever and I cannot do anything anymore, thus I cannot complete the game so far. Now I have to go, throw more stuff in the sea, bye.
Love the share mechanic! Brilliant!
I also laughed out loud when I suddenly realized that I
have just picked up the tree, haha.

I wasn't kidding, okay?
But it's still the best. Really, it's so good that I'm done for today.
It did bug out after I tried sending my 4th or 5th item, it got stuck in my hand and I couldn't pick anything else up.
(BTW I didn't know at first that my messages would actually reach someone, there might be some rude things I said. Sorry.)
Receiving and sending messages is very pleasing !
I noticed a bug happening after a while with the left arm of the character : it began to shake and I could not use it anymore
The messages system is somewhat fancy, though; I'm not sure, however, how items receiving is handled and if it requires two people being online at the same time at least. Also, am I correct in suspecting that depending on island there are different elementary items (specifically, the unkown-named white stones and rubber trees on one island, and coconuts and palm trees on another)? Are there other items? How long it might take before my message reaches someone?
I guess that sort of multiplayer can get rather troublesome, overall, if the items we get depends purely on whatever people throw in... especially if they are on the same sort of islands as us...?
Couldn't find anyone to send me stuff though :<
awesome game!
