It looked nice but I couldn't figure out where the trash was that I had to take from the trash cans

This was really fun! I love how you switch views from the truck for driving and dragging trash. I couldn't figure out how to actually put trash in the vehicle or why I had to rotate objects but had fun regardless! The day night cycle was interesting too. The tutorial was very useful to have as part of the game! Overall great job!

Hmm I had the same problem as the others, couldn't figure out where the trash is or how to pick it up. But overall I like the art style and the sound effects.

I have to echo what others have already commented, I couldn't figure out how to pick up the trash.

You are supposed to get to the trash by pressing the A and D keys to rotate the view, then you can click on the trash with the mouse and drag it to the truck. Thank you for all the advice! In the future with out games we will try to make things more intuitive for the player.

Hey! Well done :slight_smile:
Gladly I've noticed your comment that A/D moves the view when collecting the trash. It was super unobvious

Interesting idea! But the truck moves too slow. Overall it's good game!

I could move the trash but I didn't know what to do after that

Hardest game ive ever played. This was just fantastic. I was so fully immersed the whole way though, that I forgot to pick up my children from soccer practice. It was okay though because this game was here for me.
Thank you for making a masterpiece.

Bit of an issue with the resolution I think, too bad.

Nice fun little game one thing I noticed was that the turning sound was way louder then the other noises so much so that I stopped turning at all because it was so loud. I like the tutorial was vary helpful. Maybe if you have time after the jam add an arrow pointing to where the trash bins are, or something took me a while to figure out to push left or right to see the bins after clicking on the flashing bins. Maybe make the truck a little faster as well but all in all a solid base for a game could see myself playing this if it is expanded on like how I play lawnmower simulator. Thanks for the game. Have a good day and good luck with your school!

I like the concept of the game and it certainly fits the theme. The tutorial was also very well done and concise. The movement was a little rough especially steering but other then that well done!
