Very fun game! It was a good sort of frustrating. I liked it a lot and the music was nice.

Oh noes, I'm stuck! At least I can stay here all day listening to this music.
Nothing reloading the page can't fix though!


Edit: Just noticed the R key.

I love this game! Excellent idea and aesthetically pleasing. I can't make 2D games for the life of me so this is really impressive in my opinion. Well done :-)

I like this game quite a bit. It's a simple concept but it's very well done. The difficulty curve is just about perfect for me. The music is very pleasing.

My only gripe is that there isn't any way to lose, you can move on to the next level without carrying a single item. But it's a very fun game to play, and my favourite of LD40 of those I've played so far. Nice work :)

Really cool game ! the gameplay is original and fun, the physics are really good, and overall this is a really nice game !

Maybe just the ending of levels (like having a minimum score for getting to the next level) would need a bit more work, but it is really just to find point to upgrade ^^

Really good work for a ludum dare !

Nice! I had similar idea at first but I dropped it because my prototype was more frustrating than funny. You've ballanced it way better and the game is funny. Excellent use of the theme!

It's a very cool game, I love these kinds of mechanics. There are two problems, the packages are to bouncy so most of them just jump out of the truck bed immediately. Secondly the next box starts falling before I got a chance to stabilize the first one so I have to keep moving. Good job! :)

This is an impressive little game... and I'm terrible at it. Still though, it's very well done, graphics, audio, mechanics and all.
Thanks for participating, and keep up the great work!

I love this game! :heart_eyes: You have used the theme in a unique way.:thumbsup:

Sadly, I haven't participated in this LDJam, so I can't rate this. :sob: But I will try to promote this game. Keep up your good work.

Great game. It was really fun trying to balance the boxes. Having a variety in the size and shapes of the cargo helped make the gameplay more interesting. I liked the different levels, and could definitely see more being added, like extra levels, longer truck, new types of cargo etc. The music was nice and the visuals were simple but fine.

Great entry!

:thumbsup: **What I liked:**
✱ Fun with physics engine !
✱ It really get worse, great take on the theme
✱ Music is nice and doesn't get annoying at all
✱ Sounds are neat
✱ High Score Table

:muscle: **What imo could be improved:**
✱ Graphics are clean and readable, maybe using a more original theme would improve both inovation feeling and mood. To improve in graphics the next step would be to add in the drawings both texture and lighting+shadowing to give volume.
✱ Engine sound missing :o

:sparkles: **Overall**
✱ Very great overall, had a lot of fun! Thanks for the game!

I really enjoyed this game, and echo what others have said about it being simple yet fun. :-) When I saw the massive drop coming up on the last level, I cried...

I like the idea, but the controls are weird, at leasts for my preference... I would prefer up/down for accelerating/braking and left/right for tilting, but that's just my opinion. Otherwise it's a very nice game, keep up the good work.

Awesome game, and such a small download!
It was fun, the physics were just realistic enough to be fun. The speed bumps were a cool surprise!

Really good music! And the game was actually FUN, something that weighs more than all the graphics in the world. Amazing job!

I enjoyed playing this game. I liked the music and the highscore tables. The boxes were a bit too bouncy for my taste, although that also makes it funny. ;) Congrats on your game! :)

Really cool game, one of the best physics based I played in this Ludum Dare!
The music and sound effects are good, too. Thanks for keeping the high scores! I wonder how some of the scores have been achieved... The theme is also matched very well!

The graphics could be a bit more detailed, but that is nitpicking on a high level.

Great work on your compo game! I'm pretty bad at it but I still love the physic and really wasn't expecting the extra cart haha. I liked the music, it was really soothing which was perfect to relax after seeing all cargo fall on the ground.
