Note on this game jam
It is my second participation. I did the 50th ludum dare. This time I added some selfmade music which is still my biggest nightmare when developing a game.
This game is supposed to be short and fast paced with a bit of randomness.
I hope you will enjoy this game as much as I did while making it.
Play on itch.io, link at the bottom. Best to play full screen :)

I ended up loosing at 965kg because not enough parcel were falling after a while
@pauvictor FPS will not hire you then :laughing:
@matthewdrake @axelle-desquilbet @krynxx I'm happy that you enjoyed it :thumbsup:
@paul-sinnett True! I did not try to play the game on a touchscreen, it would be even better. Thanks for the input :smiley:
The weight aspect was fun as well but I admit I just threw things until the trucker told me their weight.
Great job!
EDIT: I see that the interface was cut off on my computer and there's actually a real time weight counter at the top. My bad!
My best was 867kg.
Any game that make me smile and laugh out loud is a win! Awesome game!
680kg was my best record
That moment when I first hurled the priceless Ming vase into the van and then heard the smash was too good.
Lowlight: Bugged objects ended run
Wow! This is a really great game. It is so simple, yet so addicting. I loved struggling with the chaos of a never-ending stream of objects piling up as you struggle to throw them into the back of the truck. The music was subtle but nice and the sfx were quite funny. Only complaint is my first game, the objects got stuck onto eachother on the ramp and I couldn't get them down which caused me to lose.
@zhiteng-chen Happy that you had fun.
@kiguel182 Oh sorry that the interface was cut off. I had some issues making it work for a variety of screen sizes. I will know better for the next LD :laughing:
@kazatan Thanks ! You did a pretty good score :thumbsup:
@nox282 I'm happy that you enjoyed the game so much. Thank you.
@torte478 Thanks for the nice comment. I'm surprised that people like the music, I think it sounds quite bad :laughing:
@candlesan Haha you explained exactly how i wanted people to feel the game, slightly stressful but with having fun playing with physics objects. Thanks for the lovely comment.
@kesha11s Pretty good score! Thanks for the comment.
@defrag hahaha what a better idea you got there, I should have thought about airplane luggage loader! Thanks you for the lovely comment.
@soloadventurergames Glad that you liked it.
@nathan-franck Sorry to read that you got some bugged objects. I had from time to time this issue but I couldn't fixed it properly. Anyway, I'm happy that you enjoyed the game. Thanks for the lovely comment.
@rustywolf haha same, happy that you enjoyed the game
@cinterre Thanks for the compliment on the music, I'm still not happy with it though ^^
Once you get rid of the initial pile of cargo, the game gets too easy, though. I stopped playing at like 1.4k. Spawn times could be quicker.
But super fun overall!
while some time the stuff just touch the van and still count in,may be there can be some space in midle
@nazorus Thanks for the music, I'm still surprised that people like it :laughing: I'm happy that you had fun.
@geck0 I'm sorry that you encountered this bug, it happens from time to time that multiple objects spawn inside each other and get stuck... i hope you still enjoyed the game.
@olddog you are completely right, the hitbox to count a package as in is of the size of the truck, so just touching it is enough. Instead, I should check if the collider attached to the package is inside the collider of the truck.
