It`s really hilarious seeing the truck shrinking, but I wish a higher resolution graphic. Nice work!

Really nice game. I wish there were some sound effects. On my first try, one of the green block squash me and I think I fell through the floor and the game put me back at the start.

Cool idea, really like it. Scale mechanics presently fits into the theme

This is such a great implementation of the theme. I laughed out loud when I saw the game and had a fun time playing it.
I wasnt able to figure out how to get past the blue zone though, not sure if that is the end or I was just missing something. Great job though

I mean what else is there to say except W I D E T R U C K? very novel idea! I wasn't sure how many puzzles you could make based on this mechanics but you did a good job having a few different fun situations to figure out. Felt like I need to use thin truck more than wide truck. would like to see more wide truck in the next one. Jokes aside, good job. Only note is while I like the flat colors with pixelization look, I think you could make the pixel size smaller, it was a bit hard to read at times with how low rez it is.

Brilliant idea! Played for a while but got stuck. The collision sometimes was buggy but that might also be a novel feature! Overall a great work!

Enjoyed playing this! Good take on the theme. There were couple of times where the truck got stuck. Other than that had fun...

What a brilliant game! Extremely simple to understand but still a great challenge! It's great to see a game that fits the theme so well

What a brilliant idea. And a great execution too. Gives me the feeling of operating a delivery themed knight bus.

I liked the idea but I struggled to find many points in time where a W I D E truck was needed. I spent most of my time in narrow truck mode. Couldn't figure out how to get past the paving area. The game needed some polish.

Such a good mechanic

really fun game. the controls felt just challenging enough, and it was nice that the game was forgiving.

I think I got to the end but wasn't quite sure since I didnt see an end screen, that would be my only suggestion.

great entry!

Super fun mechanic to play around with. Car felt a little hard to control at times, but other than that the game was fun

This is so funny, I love it. I have to know what was going through your mind when you came up with this idea. With some more enraging and thought out levels this could be a Foddy-like rage game! Nice work

The core idea is really clever! It makes for a fun gameplay with the right level design.
What about making it time-based to encourage doing a fast lap? I'd dig that!
Anyways, good job!

nice little cute game..i enjoyed it. it's nothing big, but it still made me feel better, and I smiled mainly because of its originality while playing.

that is really bizarre game :smile: love it!

got somewhere, but then the route kinda ended, not sure where to go. EDIT: ok saw the text "thanks for playing after fitting the truck in the top narrow part. Almost didn't go there, because why? there is nothing, no indication or reason to go there.

I like wiggling back and forth in it.

simple blocky pixelated style works for this game.

reminds me of my game-entry for the ludum dare jam which had theme shapeshift.

incredible idea and well executed! There are so many more levels to be had with this idea! Maybe different shaped vehicles?

Pretty neat idea, nice job! I guess it would have been nice to be able to move the camera, but that would probably have made world creation harder.
