Santa Claus Down by SuperChihuahua

[raw]
made by SuperChihuahua for LD34 (COMPO)
Santa Claus is down. I repeat: Santa Claus is down! To save Christmas you have to deliver the packages with your growing truck.

Instructions:
- Deliver packages to the red transparent boxes outside of the houses.
- If you deliver enough boxes, your truck will grow with one trailer per 6 boxes delivered. Maximum is 15 trailers.
- The grinch is out there to get you. He's driving a green car which he's trying to hit your truck with. (He will only appear when you have delivered a few packages)
- The game will become more difficult the more packages you deliver.

Keys:
- Drive: WASD
- Zoom in/out Mouse wheel or I/O
- Reset: R

Tools: Unity, Blender, bfxr.net for sound, and paint.net to make the start screen

The 3d-models are awesome and make for a pleasant experience in conjunction with the well done physics.
Good job!

Very nice looking game and the physics felt realistic. The sound started to grate though.

Love the look of the game, especially the crashed sleigh at the start, very cute. I think this game could do with a bit more direction, perhaps if you were going around a set map with boundaries, delivering to specific indicated locations it could help give a sense of purpose. I felt like I was fighting the controls a bit, but it did make tail swiping cars more satisfying. As it was, tail swiping cars was really the high point of the game. I think this game could really work as a high paced drive around tailswiping cars and delivering presents to a destination kind of game. I couldn't find the grinch unless he was one of the default cars.

Hi this game had a nice idea i was lost at the beginning by not seeing the road maybe would of been good if the camera had swept down showing houses and road etc ?

as an awful audio guy myself i had to turn the sound off sorry as the constant playing sound was frustrating but apart from the audio it was nice little game

Well Done!!

Rules of driving:
(1): It is not safe to drive on the road, please drive off to the side. Hitting trees does not matter, but cars will aggressively slam into you with no sense of self-preservation and then explode.
(2): Your truck has the turn radius of an aircraft carrier.
(3): Remember: truck cars are held together by elastic rope. Please plan accordingly, and hope you can extricate yourself from any trees or building edges you get caught on.
(4): No one likes green cars, especially people who drive them.
(5): Please be aware of the correct direction of travel and avoid all invisible walls.

Pretty fun! I got up to 10 trailers before things became completely unmanageable.
