nice game, simple concept but nicely executed. I would have added a soundtrack maybe, also the car sound becomes annoying after a while XD other than that, it's pretty good :D

I like the night level! Realizing that there is a simple shortcut at the beginning saves a lot of time XD

I agree that music would have helped a lot. I had fun and played until the end, although I went out of bounds on the last stage a few times haha
The graphics are awesome! Good job!

@alex-chertilin I can only advise you to try Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox in this case.

I certainly got spooked by this sudden change of scenery :laughing:

I really enjoyed the vibes of your game - the art, sound and humour together made it really fun. I had to mute after a while because of the engine noise being a little repetetive but it definitely fit. Nice work!

concept is really fun and the couple of lines of dialogue too! it was frustrating to get stuck on the obstacles but the levels themselves were cool.

Solid gameplay, funny stuff going on and I liked the aesthetics too. My only complaint may have been that the driving at certain places felt a bit finicky, but was derivable still. jolly good work on it and sad that you missed out on the compo deadline~ Was a really funny & lovely experience overall!

Simple, challenging and satisfying. Well done!

The idea is very funny but I would have enjoyed it a little more if the ratio between the slowdowns and the amount of time given would've been slightly different, at least during the first levels. It was quite a challenge for me to get used to at first haha. Other than that, the game was fun to play!

I loved it! I totally went out side the map on at least the first level. My favorite part is the visual of the shifting weight in the truck as you turn corners and stuff.

The game is really fun, but the sounds are incredibly annoying. It hurts to listen to the car driving, I had to mute the sounds on the website on the third level because I couldn't take it anymore. Overall though, the game is great, and quite challenging, which I enjoy.

@potatocouch Thanks for playing! I just wanted to have "water splash" sound in the game :slight_smile: I was thinking it should be anyway in the game coz it's really funny to listen it when you diving in a water.

Oh that was great, very fun gameplay, was challenging but not impossible, liked the story you added to the game( rip sergey) but like everyone said the sound is unbearable. Overall good game.

I wish Sergey could just stay with Stepanovich and drink instead of taking the night order.
Please add balalaika soundtrack, it can create a right mood for a ride.

I think it's a spectacular game to have presented it in a compo! Did you just have to publish it? I find it incredible and spectacular if this was in a Compo. Graphically it is a spectacle and the levels are very well designed, although in the end I would add some more mechanics or something like that so that it is not a game of skill and trial-error. Even so, it seems to me a superb video game, my most sincere congratulations for your game.

@digitaldude555 Thanks for playing! Yep, I should have done a better job on the sound.
@st00nsa Thanks! Yep, I was thinking of balalaika soundtrack.
@milq Thanks for playing! Yep, I just put aside publishing coz it was about 4 AM on my time.

Fun game. Took some tries to get the driving feel. Had lots of fun playin it. Loved the audio details and the humor. Good Job!

I like the art a lot. Simple game. Difficult with a tight time table allowed for each "mission" combined with no map or indicators.

@thesmellofoxygen Thanks for your feedback! Difficult is feature of my games :sweat_smile: Of course there should be the way direction indicator.

It would have been nice to have a soundtrack. The controls of the car are nice but if you take the wrong turn it is pretty unforgiving. You lose a real lot of time if you take the wrong turn and wont to maneuver back. It's just easier to restart from the beginning.
I really enjoyed the story-line :smile:
