Then I looked at the diagram and everything was better, maybe have the diagram in the game, or at the very least closer to the top of the page.\nI think it would make sense to allow the player to throw any package (to knock of the competition) but count only stickered packages towards score.\nOtherwise it was pretty fun, music was a bit loud.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":942796,"author_name":"made3","author_uid":"made3","epoch":1683007490,"text":"@jclardy Thank you for the feedback! I honestly did not recognize that. I could\/should have marked the area on the vehicles I guess\n\n@khaotom Thanks! I just wrote \"Left\/Right\" in the controls in the hope that people will think that it can be either A\/D or the arrows :sweat_smile: \n\n@ellaris Very good feedback, I appreciate it a lot :slight_smile: About the first point, I initially implemented the throwing mechanics and after that I added the \"putting on a sticker\" mechanic, so the user cannot spam boxes. And I definitely missed to connect these two mechanics, dang.\nThe diagram is actually in the game, but it's right behind the player as I thought it was not too important to know how many points what car makes.
