It did take a few passengers before I realised where I was meant to be taking them, but after I figured it out the rest of the game mechanics were really intuitive.
Unexpectedly detailed intro animation, super impressive. Fit the rest of your game in terms of theme and style as well. Overall, really nice job.
The music was a happy bop.
Overall, this is a lovely little game jam entry - thank you. :D
As the others said : i had also problems first to understand where to drop the people and then i was not sure if they are dropped. Also the controls was a bit clonky and the collision hangs often.
The idea for this game was defenitely good and it matches in my eyes also the theme :)
Great intro sequence. Could have done with a little more of a tutorial (just a quick "match the place the passenger is thinking of to a place on the map" or something) and a reminder of where I was going by the passenger icon during the journey (apologies if that's already on-screen somewhere and I just missed it.)
Nice and chill, too. Music and art style fit well together.
Good work! :smile:
