Throwing Science Out The Window - Progress Update #2

https://youtu.be/nyxDpv0EYyU

This is just a demo/prototype of my LD42 entry at about 5 hours worth of work and 23ish hours into the jam.

Note that graphics are hopefully placeholders, we'll see. The player is a truck. The idea is that this is a scientific research facility and the monkey test subjects have broken free. They are throwing science out the window (research, experiments, etc) and you have to catch them before they are ruined. The player changes from green to red as it reaches capacity (each science unit has its own weight). Once totally full (or very nearly) it will turn black. You must deliver your load before you can capture any more. Do this by backing into the garage.

No idea what my end game is yet. Possibly just allow play forever unless you miss too many items or something like that. The theme of running out of space is represented by the truck load getting full.

Units you miss subtract from your score and some value less than their point value.

Must Have TODO's: - Needs a lose condition - Needs sound - Instructions / Startup screen

Nice To Have TODO's: - Graphics update. - Power-ups such as speed boost or auto-empty? - Slow the truck down the more full it is that way you have a reason to deliver before full.
