As one of our valued employees, you've joined a dynamic and exciting new workforce. We're on a mission to delight our customers with our industry-leading service, including our unique product delivery method: catapulting the delivery vans to their destination!
Aim your catapult and adjust the firing speed with the arrow keys, then hit Space to launch. If you overshoot, hit Space again to eject the package from the back of the van.

The game was interesting and fun, I managed to score 28000 points in the first run.
Nice game, well done!
Although funny, the intro text felt a little too long. Maybe you could have had a TL;DR first, with only the controls? :)
I kind of forgot when the shift ended, so a small marker on the clock could have helped me understand how much time was left. I liked the lowpoly clock otherwise, nice touch!
The gameplay itself felt a little slow, like too much time was spent waiting for packages to land. The parachute could have been triggered much closer to the ground? And I didn't feel like I controlled the velocity of the van when catapulting it, could I do that somehow?
All in all, nice idea and execution!
Also small suggestion is replacing wall of text in the start with some kind of dialogs or tips showing throughout gameplay.
Well done!)
- Wasn't entirely clear if it mattered if I ejected the packages from the vans
- A little challenging to aim but I got the hang of it
Overall though it was pretty fun!
A little annoying that I cannot throw another van until the first lands, c'mon I am ready to throw vans all day long as fast as the catapult is ready :smile:
Also, if van hits inside red circle, or ends up in the red circle, I would count it as a hit, but for whatever reason I need to hit roof exactly?
Very fun game anyway, I never knew I love throwing vans as a delivery sercvice :smile:
