Game Description
I worked at fedex for a week and quit, this game is very vaguely like that :)

How does your game tie into the theme?
you load trucks, and make more money for overloading them

This game is very reminiscent of Plateup to me, with a difficulty curve to match.

I experienced two layouts, the one track layout and the two track layout. I was able to load both trucks with the one track layout, but massively struggled with the two track layout. Walking time was everything in this game because the tasks were either quick or set-and-forget. The two track layout was awful because you had to hope you were on the side that matched the extra task a box demanded, or the walk might not even be worth the box.

There is a bug in which the taping minigame would stay up after taking the box off the taping desk. It goes away the next time you tape a box.

While the work is strong, there are missing pieces to a complete experience. That said, you've done well to capture the vision that you were going for (your time at FedEx).

Loved the game design. I found the [x] to disengage with the truck to be a bit counter-intuitive when just walking up to the truck was all you had to do to engage. Without the tutorial I think I originally missed the Status box in the bottom right. Thankfully the tutorial was thorough and afterwards I had a great time trying to keep up. I lost my first one so it's challenging but I had fun. Great work!

Really awesome idea! I enjoyed the tutorial very much and like the style a lot. Unfortunately, the game didn't run so well for me past the tutorial. For some reason all the boxes got all stuffed up and the game was laggy for me.

 

Other than that, I got the feel for the game in the tutorial and love the concept. I think walking away from the truck to close out that truck menu would be nice instead of having to use [x] but that's just my preference :)

Nice submission!

thank you! I figured out the bug, I’m waiting to see if I’m allowed to patch it, but basically there was a wall in the way of the boxes, but at 60 fps it passes through. I never noticed.

This was a lot of fun! It felt good to play and the art style is great. Very nice work!

Thank you so much! Can't wait to try other games, I'll definitely check yours out :)

This was a ton of fun, the balancing of trying to scan/tape packages and fill the trucks felt challenging but doable. Great job!

I worked at ups for a holiday season and i get it man worst job of my life. thankfully this game is so much more fun than that lol love the artstyle and the little mini game of putting tape on the package added so much to the flow!

Thank you! yeah I seriously think I spent more time in orientation than actually working.  After that I realized instead of spending my free time working a second dead end job maybe I should try seriously learning pixel art  and doing game dev.
