The art is really good but I'd make important gameplay elements more visible.
Uneven train acceleration makes the game a bit uncomfortaple to play. And, I didn't get it if you can pick up resource only if a lead car of train crosses it.
One big like from me for tutorial. The game would feel really nice on mobile platforms.
Good job!
I really enjoyed trying to keep track of what was needed where and thinking about what I should pick up.
In my opinion it would be really cool if every order had some sort of timer so you had to prioritize some resources over others to complete the orders in time. Maybe you could also introduce urgent orders with shorter timers.
I played up to a score of 327, then it got a bit repetitve.
The graphics and the music were great. I also really appreciated that you created a tutorial. This made playing and rating your game a much more enjoyable experience!
I am really glad that I found your game and decided to try it out!
It would also be really cool if you also tried out our game :)
I really liked it, i think it's really good and work very well, it would be a nice project outside a jam but for a 3 days project it's really neat and there isn't any bad point that come to my mind ^^
For me, the only improvement would be to make the speech bubbles stand out more against the background, maybe with a border or a flashing effect or something. Sometimes it took me a while to notice them.
Congrats on an awesome entry!!
Sometimes it was just a bit hard to see when a new request was available. And I wish we could drop cargo that we don't need when picked up accidentally, but that also can be a feature of the game, like don;t take what you don't need otherwise you get penalized.
Very fun to play, well done!
