Great game! The graphics, designs, settings, etc. I found it incredible! Unfortunately on my PC it works quite slow, however I was able to really enjoy playing it and going through those dunes and beautiful apocalyptic landscapes :D

Really nice! Especially in the time limit.

This game is quite fun but its really well made. I honestly kinda doubt you guys made this in 3 days but you're a big team so thats fair. The grapple hook mechanic is really creative and fun but the bandits rarely pose a threat. Otherwise, its some good fun that has the potential to be made into a bigger game (perhaps survival). The only main criticism I have is the performance which is not too bad for me but still a problem. Also, there isn't much to do with delivery other than driving around to different POIs but thats just a product of time constraints. Overall, fun game, cool ideas and the grapple is fun :)

Great feel and game. The controls were nice. i sadly got stuck on the last step, on top of an enemy but it was fun anyway :)

Cool graphics!

I'm impressed by the quality of this game. Even the camera motion and the car trails made with professional approach. This game concept can be evolved into game Vangers or game Gripper.

Great quality, liked this a lot! (finished the game!)
Well done, impressive work!

@exilon Other than a the terrain shader that was made outside the game jam by Anstabo for other projects (And then again we had to adapt it to terrain use, which wasted us a few hours, Unity being Unity with hidden shader keywords :') ), everything was made in the 72 hours ! Especially the vehicle physics, which we had zero experience on before, and was, at least for me, the big challenge of the jam.

And indeed, there was a lot of time crunch, and things that could be more optimized.

Thanks for the comment !

Thanks for playing our game ❤!

@exilon
Cheers for playing, we definitely had an amazing team!

@exilon did you build the vehicle physics and collision from scratch?? or on top of unity built-in physics (Nvidia PhysX)

@teadrinker I used the Wheel colliders, which uses the PhysX engine behind the scene. I spent a lot of time tweaking the values to have them feel right however, and applied a lot of invisible forces and torques to stabilize the vehicle.

@fluffy-kaeloky yes still impressive! I noticed the car never topples over etc, well tuned!

very interesting physics and grapple mechanics, explosions, particles and shaders, there is a lot in here. Lots of complex physics in here make this a very impressive entry

A tone of fun to play and an amazing shader work this clearly ! The ending was so tense it was great with that grapplin mechanic !

Very beautiful game with cool mechanics and shaders. The missions before the final was kind of monotonous but overall I had fun, great job everyone!

This game is great, I enjoyed it a lot. The camera rotation is a bit awkward though, but aside from that it's great! good job.

Great entry! The car physics felt really responsive and satisfying to drive! And the 3d graphics were top notch! I especially liked the filter that let me see through stuff when my car was behind it, that was a great touch. During the earlier stuff I felt like the enemies just couldn't keep up with me so I didn't get to interact with them much. The finale was a great way to end the game. Well done!

Impressive one with some appreciated polish. the camera works well most of the time, and the physics's good.
We had some laughs at the end while trying to defeat the ennemies but I didn't used the grapple mechanic a lot before that. Maybe something to tweak here to make it easier to use ?

Well done guys

I am amazed how polished this game is.I really like the graphics style. Great Game!

You know, I was feeling low-key stressed recently, with the jam and bugs and fear of feedback and all, so having an opportunity to freaking wreck some shit up was a _blessing_. I was a bit worried because my PC isn't the best at the moment, but nope, everything worked fine and fluid, and the absolute mayhem on my screen felt like it was healing my weary soul.
Thank you for this T^T

Super fun to zip around the desert and harpoon cars! I noticed that the AI for the vehicles could be a bit... goofy, haha. Love the visual aesthetic; it would be super cool to see this as a more fully realized game!

The game looks really fun, but unfortunately it works so slow on my PC that it was impossible to play. I have an i9 and a fairly decent GPU, so I guess either you've done something horribly wrong, or it is an emulation problem (I'm running it on Linux using Wine).

I won't rate the game, of course, - that would be unfair :) The only constructive feedback I can give is the intro: the text disappears faster than I can read it (I'm not a native speaker), yet it is also unskippable, overall making it a bit frustrating.

Nice game ! Maybe more controls with the grapple (like a release of more rope) would be nice ! The end zone was a bit laggy even on my big boi computer that's sad.

@lisyarus It is probably because of the emulation. I have made a linux build and added it for you :)

Since I don't have a way to test it however, feel free to send any errors you might encounter :o

It looks cool!

Excelent game! Damn it's fun. Only problems I had with camera, hitboxes of iron bridges and the chromatic abberation was excesive IMO. But that is great work you did there.

The driving felt really nice and it was fun to race through the desert admiring the scenery. You guys did a great job with the graphics. The sand looks really nice. I do think the post processing was a little too much, maybe crank it up when a crash happens.

I was a little disappointed to find out that the turret on the car wasn't a gun, but a harpoon. There unfortunately wasn't really much gameplay here. I think my car goes so fast that the bandits never pose a threat. It'd be interesting if they drove alongside me and threatened me in some way that I needed to deal with them. I was also hoping that the red barrels would blow up if I harpooned them.

I also didn't know if I was playing the game right, I wasn't sure what the # of boxes referred to. There was a red bar that kept going up, and I assumed it was damage, but hitting repair didn't seem to do anything apart from wasting all of my money.

Whenever I start the game the vehicle just starts moving full speed backwards and falls off the map, tried multiple times with the same effect, if I hit left or right quickly enough I can stay inside the map but I can't get the car to stop moving and all it seems to do is spin in circles.

Needs Checkpoints

@raptor851 Which build are you using ? You're the first to report that issue.

The linux build, I didn't have any game controllers plugged in or turned on w/ bluetooth at the time either so not sure why it was reading me as accelerating.

@raptor851 Ah, I see. Unfortunately, I don't have a Linux distribution installed to test the Linux build, so I uploaded it as is. Just in case it's an issue on your computer only, I've left the build on the itch page, but made it clearer that it was untested.

Sorry about that. Thanks for the report tho ! :ok_hand:

Cool concept, plays well, and it's always nice to see a hook :D Congrats for your entry!

Hands down, the best ludumdare entry of LDJAM53. 10/10! Would MadMax again.


Also, the best Meta is just to max speed and zoom from place to place not having to deal with the enemies!
