A downloadable game

The main gameplay will consist of driving your truck around an open environment in searching of the cargo that has been floating about in space. Alongside the cargo will be junk that you can also collect but doing so will decrease the amount of money gained for the mission. You collect items by getting close enough where they get caught in your gravity field (similar to the tractor beam from Star Wars). 

Game made with https://gwenboulet27.itch.io/ and https://cer101.itch.io/.

I worked on programming, including the player's movement and the asteroids' movement.


Reflection:

I think that the game is representative of the core loop we wanted. The game is not fun right now, both because of some technical problems and also because we did not fully capture the funniness aspect that we wanted to.

If I were to change it I would make it so there were more physics interactions in it, as well as adding more funny parts to it. I would also try to fix the technical problems.

The next place I would take the idea is to make those changes I just mentioned, and also to make it so there are multiple levels and you can buy upgrades in between them.
