Fast delivery by stenol

[raw]
made by stenol for LD27 (JAM)
The goal of the game is to reach the end line before the coountdown reach 0. You start with 10 seconds but you can pick up power up that add 10 seconds to the timer. Be aware that the red power up remove 10 seconds to your timer. If you crash your car, you'r game over.

Controls
W = Accelerate
S = Brake (Cannot go below 100)
A = Move left
D = Move rigt

Have fun :)

-----------

If the game doesn't run try the openAL install. That should fix issues.

Takes me back to my many hours of playing spyhunter. Great level design.

I can't seem to pick up the (I guess) time boosts, so I always finish after only 10s.

@Kwrky and @Friday. I just updated the game and now the power up pickup is more accurate. Tank you for your feedback :)

Didn't work, just didn't start(It doesn't even look like the process started running, or windows doesn't show that process...)

The time pickups work for me. Overall a nice game, I like the layout of the track.
Would have been a nice touch to rotate the car according to the movement. And I missed music, or at least a sound effect for the car's engine. But still, well done. :)

Crashed on startup for me too. Possibly missing some libraries. There wasn't really an error message given.

Pretty cool. As stated before, cool level design, they do not get boring (although it's a bit frustrating to start a new after you've died).

What language did you use?

@comrad_gremlin I used C# with monogame library

If your game crash, you can try to install OpenAl. Sorry about that :-)

I thought that was really good. My main complaint is that the course could have been longer because I was really getting into it.

I'm afraid I couldn't get it to work on my computer: OpenTK crashes with an 'Array out of bounds' error, which is probably caused by wine. I'll give it another go later on.

Pretty cool game, but it feels pretty slow for a car supposedly driving so fast. If it were, say, a bicycle messenger, the game speed would fit perfectly, also, it would fit the delivery theme the name implies.

Amazing game. I like this a lot. I probably sank five or ten minutes trying to beat it. I am glad you added sound, controls were nice, all around good job. Keep it up, man.

Fun game would have been nice if there where more levels or random levels and you could go faster than 200 though

@Thepattybeast I will continue to work on this game after the competition to add more levels, more power up and more obstacles.

For a vintage game its great, for a todays game I would have liked to have a little more steering and a little more feedback from the game.

Pretty cool! Decent use of time / extension mechanics.

Thank you for the OpenAL install, by the way. I think I had a similar crash the other day when I tried to run a different entry.

This game is well executed. I like how the power ups give an additional 10 seconds, instead of resetting the time to 10 seconds. Good job!

Reminds me of Road Fighter! Ah them feels!
Good job on the game. Good art as well, but it could use more work in the innovation department.
Nonetheless, congrats on your game!

Neat game, with a compelling level design. Run after run, we finally get to learn the curves, the traps... Good job!

It has little replay value but it's a nicely designed map. It took me a few tries to realize that the red "10" were actually -10 seconds... Missed some sound, and a more responsive movement, but otherwise it was nicely done. :)

I would've wanted some more depth to the game, possibly random level generation or more levels! Anyway, took me quite a few tries to beat the game - so you did a good job balancing the level!:)

Nice simple little game, needs some more graphics, but its pretty solid. I featured it in my LD27 compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WX5erHA1DPE
