Ranked from 12 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
Building more cars on the train affects other aspects of operation, such as heat / speed / mass, so its important to keep the scale of the train in mind when creating your setup. Scale your train up until it gets too massive, then scale your train down by selling train cars you've accumulated.

this was very unique and maybe even a but strange although I liked it very much

Developer

Thank you! I liked your game as well; KWOP but 80 stories high!

fun concept, really enjoyed the backgrounds of the biomes, especially the desert. the snow biome gave me a bit of a jump scare tho haha. also enjoyed exploding my train :)

Developer

We had a lot of fun coming up with those biomes.

I'm glad that you were able to go out with a BANG!

Cool train and great music

Developer

Thank you! The track is Circuit City from the Ovani Sound 80s Music Pack.

trains good = game good

Fun idea, and love the style. I did find it hard to judge the distance to the towns, and frequently just missed them. I feel that the time limit also makes it hard to really test large trains; I got five cars at the end, and no more.

Developer

Thank you so much for the feedback!

I would definitely like to improve those. A warning sign would be cool, and I think that I'd like the player to try and reach a certain amount of winning money via a big train instead of having a countdown.

Nice idea and a fun game :)

Developer

I loved your sumo mushroom game too!

Did not understand the game. 

Developer

We'd like to know more, so that we can improve! :)

Were you able to start and stop the train?

Were you able to find a shop?

Did some user interface elements seem cut off?

Were you able to finish the game, or did you only get a game over screen?

Neat idea! I liked the art and the music the most. Final Score 24.

Developer

Thank you for giving us score feedback! It'll help our design decisions.

Too surreal for me.

Developer

Were the faces too weird?
:D
