Great game! You nailed the controls and handling for a 48 hour game. My only suggestion is to add a reset button (unless I missed one) because my terrible driving got me stuck after a few pallets :)

Very funny game. Perfect for the infuriating control style game. Enjoyed messing around as I terribly tried to life and move stuff. Could see being very funny watching a friend play.

Love the game! Nice controls and great graphics. I would play this on steam if you were to ever do a full release

What a good entry for this jam, hit the brief and smashed it. The controls and feel worked so well, I am safe to say I shouldn't be anywhere near a forklift in the near future. And those graphics *'chefs kiss'*. Great jam!

Amazing game here! Graphics were tasty, and the controls were fun to learn. It was a bit hard to get used to at first, a tutorial starting small would go a long way here I think. Well done!!

As a forklift driver, I can say that this is a perfect recreation of the difficulties of operating a forklift, and this is 5/5 use of the theme, love it!

This game nails the theme and is also quite fun! I love physics based gameplay and a forklift was an excellent choice for a vehicle type that fit the requirements, I only wish there was more variety in maps.

Easily my favourite game yet. You did such a good job on this, and it was a compo!!???

The physics and controls are pretty much perfect, and that is no easy feat for a jam especially compo! Good Job! Feels quite satisfying once one gets the controls down. Sounds are nice!

Really like the handling and the simplistic/retro artstyle. Great game!

Beautiful artstyle. Love that you thought to add snow! And impressive to get the controls and physics this polished in 48 hours! Definitely difficult and frustrating but that is hopefully the point..

At some point I lost it and left the warehouse.. Just me, sliding around in the snow, by myself. Much calmer

"I really liked the game and had a lot of fun! The aesthetics are also pretty cool and pleasant! The controls are challenging, but I enjoyed them a lot. I was messing around with the forklift most of the time.

The feel of controlling that forklift is so good, but it was so difficult. It's a game that takes practice. The forklift sounds were bang on. I had fun trying to get stuff into the warehouse, but I couldn't get very much done.

I love the art style. Controls took some practice, but they're definitely learnable and fun to use. Only complaint is that the hole in the palettes is super precise, which is hard to see with the pixelation. Great job overall!

A delightfully frustrating game in my favourite low-poly esthetic. Is it difficult? Ohhh yes, but I can't help but consider it a selling point instead of a downside. I planned to change my keyboard anyway :D
Honestly, a beautiful little game all in all.
