Full Steam by tompudding

[raw]
made by tompudding for LD36 (COMPO)
Full Steam Ahead!

Ride the railways in the old west. Sadly you wont be able to shoot anything as I ran out of time, but at least you'll have fun.

PS You won't have fun.

Linux users can run the source directly if you have pygame and pyopengl (python-pygame and python-opengl on Ubuntu), or you can try one of the binary packages

bog13: I switched to itch.io so hopefully folks can download now
svyatozar: Sorry that makefile was leftover from something else (I updated it now though), you can just run python fullsteam.py. Thanks for trying!

Sound effects were great. Was actually very challenging which surprised me but I loved the challenge so thumbs up for that. I also went full speed just because I was curious. Great game!

Ah, good old Densha de Go! With steam train!
Of course I had fun. Properly made train games are always fun.
It missed only one thing - you MUST add a steam whistle button!

The sounds are funny ! Maybe too much challenging for now but the steam train concept is definitely appealing :)

I enjoyed this very much! A map would be the only thing I could think of to help make decisions.

I really want to try this but it wont open on my computer. I'v been having this problem I think its windows 10. 64bit versions have fixed it in the past.

This is a really great little game. The idea behind the game i brilliant, and the soundeffect is very funny. I have a lot troubles getting up hill. But overall a great game. Well done.

I was totally not ready to get in the driver's seat! I kept getting myself stuck between hills! Probably because I have no idea how trains work. I initially mistakenly thought that "anywhere above the green line and below the red is fine," and later came to the realization that more pressure is more oomph--of course!!

I majorly sucked at all the levels, but the complexity of the controls definitely makes this feel like the kind of game that would be really rewarding when finally nailing a level after a bunch of practice! The sound effects were great too. Nice compo entry! :)
