Take your Fathers Jeep on a perilous Journey through Deserts & Canyons to find your great grandfathers treasure.
Whew! My first Ludum Dare since #LD24
I felt limited by my skill in Unity as I've only been using it for a week or two now. There's some very ghetto game play elements because of that.
I've opted out of the compo & Graphics category because I used some public domain textures and the vehicle is of course from the Unity asset store. I also ran out of time pursuing my own attempt at a 3D model which turned out to be a total abortion.
For the 2D map and letters I used GIMP.
For the music I used FL Studio and my trusty M-Audio Keystation 88es.

I am unfortunately not that great at driving :)
Would love to see this polished up and the concept extended upon!
Was it fun? Not sure, but it was certainly memorable :)
The writing was also a great touch :)
The idea with the magnifying glass is really awesome!
The game would be even more awesome, if you could find a way to procedurally generate levels or provide more than one level. That would give it more replayability value, which would be great, since gameplay is really fun!
The physics could be improved a little bit, since the truck can sometimes drive on its side and made a huge jump one time, when i hit a wall ;)
It would be great, if you made the "flip jeep" button more visible. When the truck was unmovable one time, I got pretty mad, when I noticed the button after reloading the game-page (played the web version) :D Well, in fact thats not your fault, I just didn't scroll down to look for such a button. Maybe you can make any profit out of this info ;)
The graphics look very nice and the music is really fitting. That made the game even more enjoyable!
Great work!
Very clever idea for the theme and a really nice feel to the presentation. Good job!
