Woo-Hoo! First Thread! Hows the game?

dukmiester2 · 02-04-2012, 05:43 PM

Has anybody played this yet? Looks entertaining, and claims to have over 10,000 levels

Wonder how repetitive it gets after, say, the first 5,000 or so levels

Anybody tried it , please feel free to comment.

Played through the first few levels, I'd recommend it for its price. It wasn't designed for widescreen monitors, the UI doesn't look great at 1080p.

Dobz, it's true that the main menu doesn't stretch to widescreen (we vignette the menu with black bars due to development constraints) but the actual game (where it really counts) supports all widescreen resolutions, as seen below

Cool, thanks for the info!
Hows it work using a gamepad? Says controller enabled on store page, is it just for 360 pads?

Also, just noticed a "sticky" , dev is gonna make all the DLC free

I may just buy this game, for less than a fiver it seems like a very good deal.

I was trying to get my 360 controller working before, won't let me use the controller when setting key bindings or playing the game

Edit: Seems you can use controllers, but only buttons. Can't use the thumb sticks or LT and RT axes. Would be nice to accelerate using RT.

You can use the axes if you can find a proper key biding program.

SOLD!

I have just gotten so used to just slapping in x360ce for use in games so my Logitech Dual Action Pad would show up in-game as a 360 pad, I totally forgot I have (and seldom use) the Logitech Profiler Software!

It lets me assign any keyboard keys or mouse buttons to the buttons, axes, and D-Pad I want. And, it lets either the left and/or right analog stick emulate a mouse.

That just sold me, thanks Amy

Note that proper joystick/axis support has just been added. See here:

This is mostly because of the User Created Levels.
Technically it's infinite.

Some levels can be pretty damm creative and giving new possibility to the gameplay.

I've played a lot and i'm not bored yet. And if new features come to the game i won't be bored soon too.

LOL! anyone else find it funny when the teddybears hit dynamite?

funny seeing them fly

awesome game! going through user created levels

edit: hit a HUGE TNT and my truck went to space nearly, camera zoomed out REALLY far O_O and saw all my teddys scattered like jellybabys

funny funny game

It's neat. Not exactly Trials 2, but a nice game for short breaks et.c. I'm glad to see fun, cheap releases like this on Steam.

SgtFrog · 03-26-2012, 07:01 PM

I want to know more about the "Horrible Driver" achievement. What are these "unspeakable driving atrocities" it describes?

HeatSurge · 03-26-2012, 09:45 PM

Basically, you flip the truck and all the animals fall off in one atrocious, horrible motion. Sad bunny appears and you're now officially a "Horrible Driver."

Excellent style and excellent gameplay by the way. The game is simple, but beautiful and addictive in its simplicity. I got the Humble Bundle specifically and only because they added this game.
