Yeaaaaah programmer's art let's go! Couldn't go past level 3, but it's nice!

@florianbald thanks for playing :smile: I know the game is very difficult, but I promise I completed all of the levels and I had 1 play tester who managed to complete all of them, so it is possible

I love the explosion effect you get when you bump it too much.
The game is a bit too hard for me though :D

I liked the idea of balancing while moving, I think maybe zooming the camera out a little would give a little more sense of the difficult terrain.

Can't help but think of Hill Climb while playing this. It's quite challenging but great job making it!

@benjamin123 thanks, yeah the difficulty is all over the place. I wanted the game to be slower and a bit more deliberate, but I think having an ability to control camera zoom could counter the lack of difficulty balance

Very fun game ! I loved the challenge, but sadly couldn't beat the 5th level
It is always a lot of fun to play with physics though !
Also maybe adding a way to see how much of the level is left would be awesome !
Nice job !

@nebiros thank for playing, yeah a minimal of some kind is a great idea, thanks for feedback. Well done on completing level 4! 4 and 5 are way too difficult. I myself only completed level 5 three times and the only other person who managed to complete it, took close to 1h worth of restarts to do it, so it's is 100% too difficult

I really like this mechanic. Raising/lowering the back felt perfect. Really fun to play! Thanks for sharing!

Pretty fun, but I wish it was a bit faster. The springy car in level 4 was fun.

Level 4 is just evil :P That was fun to play. I really like that not only terrain changes with each level but also the truck. Maybe the next step could be adding different material to transport? Good job with the game.

Good game. I liked the balancing mechanic and the damage bar provided enough feedback I could adjust what I was doing to progress. Only finished levels 1 and 2 but tried each. They provided a nice variety and level of challenge.

Thanks @zimny11, yeah level 4 is my favourite, because of how silly it is. I think if I were to revisit the game, different materials could be a cool idea. I already change the max instability of the element in levels as well as changing car properties. I think I could probably do with a little indicator before the level start with info about the properties of the car and the material.
