Your itch.io page is 404ing. Perhaps you didn't make the page public? Shame since the images look nice. Good luck!
Edit: Now that it's playable and I played it, let me just say that was not what I expected at all! Very entertaining and a fun way to use the theme without being too boring. Only thing is that I wish I could have TCHOU'd during the final cinematic sequence in celebration! I liked it! Nice work.

Haha I had lot of fun.

The puzzle is short yet interesting, and the actions feels intuitive.
The art is great.
I loved the ending.

Thanks for the game 💕

Awesome graphics! Love the art style. Couldn't work out what I was meant to do though I just ended up going round and round picking up and dropping off passengers. Certainly fits the brief!

Also, dedicated Tcho Tcho button ftw!

Everything worked, and it was all beautiful.
Moving that little train around was very rewarding, the train movement/animation, camera movement, graphics, all felt polished. Every bit of moving that train around was fun, from accelerating, to stopping, to busting through the gate and pumping the corners. The particle effects were incredible!
Great Job!

Hahaha that was fun :) Almost missed the point, i had to go read the description of the game again. The puzzle is very nice to solve, and the graphics and audio are delightful. The handling of the train is very satisfying and the ending even more ! Thank you !

@kharath sorry you coul'dnt solve it :( I'm thinking about adding some hints that trigger after some time in a post-jam version. But I'm pleased you liked the art ! :)
Thanks everyone for your feedbacks !

Beautiful art style, like the toon shader feel, and the smoke system looked great! Didn't quite figure it out, but I'll take another go soon! Nice job on this entry!

It took me a while to figure it out, my roommates thought I had to get the bus to run into the car but eventually we figured it out

Very beautiful - the game was really fun and felt... good the whole time. I wish it were longer, which is a compliment, as I really wanted to play more of this.

Definitely props for having a tchou button. It was very satisfying to use every time :D
