Follow the arrows and deliver as many pizzas as possible before time runs out, and avoid other cars!

This is a Crazy Taxi like game about delivering pizzas. I had a lot of fun rendering the buildings and cars.

Controls

• C/Up : forwards
• X/Down : backwards
• Left/Right : Steer left and right

Be warned, the collision physics are a bit finicky sometimes.
Some code is a bit messy, and I'm all out of tokens.

Hope you have fun!

Whoever can tell me what the music is inspired by gets a cookie (it's pretty obscure).

Hey, this is pretty fun, but I ran into a bug! My van got itself onto the sidewalk and after that I could move forward and backward but steering didn't work so I couldn't get back on the road.

visually it's fantastic! however hitting into cars and buildings is incredibly frustrating. maybe less velocity should be lost when hitting a car and maybe we should be able to slide along buildings instead of hitting and stopping immediatly.

Hey @2bitchuck
Haha I was hoping no one would run into that quick that quickly! I'm aware of this but sadly I haven't really found a workaround, if steering is allowed when near walls, this can lead to the car steering itself into a locked state, and since I'm out of tokens it's hard to rework that part. Once you get used to the controls, this bug doesn't occur that often.
Hope you can still have fun!

Hey @Ummmm_ok
I have to agree with you but I had so much trouble getting the whole collision system to somewhat work that getting back into it would probably be the end of me. Add to that that I'm out of tokens.
I'm glad you like the visuals though!
Thanks for the feedback

This game is amazing, and I find it very fun to play. but I did run into one problem that happened consistently. I got stuck between a large crash of cars, and they would not move away from me because they were too close. I love this game though, thank you!

Impressive work! Fun :)

Hey @Ichorus,
Thanks! I need to rework some physics stuff haha! But it's complicated, hope you still enjoyed it somewhat!

Hey @lowrez,
Thank you :)

Hey @StephenCarney,
I'm glad you found this intuitive and the vibe right!

@CodenameWaddles - missed this cart when you originally posted it, but saw it mentioned in PicoView so I checked it out.

It looks great and driving has a nice feeling of being just slightly out of control, so you're going to crash into something sooner or later, which is sort-of what this game is about.

I encountered the same problem as 2bitchuck getting stuck on the sidewalk which does bring the game to a frustrating halt. If you have the tokens maybe an option (in the pause menu) to shift the car back to "home" or to the center of the nearest road could be a work-around.

Still a good fun game and the builings are cars really look great.
