Ice Cream Truck 2020
Ice Cream Truck 2020
Submission for Weekly Game Jam 187! Theme is Ice Cream Truck.
Coded everything in GMS2, and drew all of the assets myself within the week.
Put in a bit of extra time to make it both PC + mobile friendly.
Known Bugs
For some reason, when I click out of the game window, and back in, the keyboard input is no longer registered, as though it's no longer in focus. Refreshing the page seems to help.

Nice art style and like the game idea I enjoyed it. It is pretty hard, but finding time to balance can be hard during a jam. Good effort!
Thanks Taylor! For sure! Appreciate the kind words haha!
Great art! And you drew everything yourself too nice. Although the game is quite difficult though. When a kid reached your ice cream truck it's all over hahaha
Thanks psl012! Art practice and learning how to paint helps a lot :D
And yes, the kids are currently too crazy for ice cream. Will have to rebalance somehow but still keeping a hectic feeling.
Awesome, but year what can I do when the kids get too close to my ice cream truck!
Thanks Miguel!
Difficulty is the first thing to address, but until I tweak it, I pretty much just spam ice cream sandwiches and hope I can last for a while XD
It's fun, but also really hard
Thanks SulkingCrow! Yes, it gets kind of nuts at the end haha.
Those kids swarmed me! Ha ha, cool! This was fun.
Haha yes, going to tweak that for sure, but I do like how funny that looks. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for playing!
Very good game! But a little hard to play for me :)
I do agree, It was pretty hard to play. Having to keep pressing on the different ice cream's made it even harder. Also the A,S and D inputs did nothing. I don't know if that's a bug or something. Overall, very nice concept and what I would do differently is make the game more easier by not having a ton of kids spawn so quickly, maybe even adding levels or something and make the game controls /mechanics more user friendly.
Yes, unfortunately I couldn't get the game window to focus properly consistently. If I can't figure it out, might just have both web and downloadable version after some minor tweaks.
Lots of gameplay tweaks for sure, adjust the kid difficulty, maybe add some variety, make the cone more useful etc. Probably won't be adding additional levels though. Appreciate the detailed feedback, and thanks for playing, itsohclay!
Thanks Shareshift! Haha yes, I only had one iteration to tweak mechanics before the submission, but I agree. The gameplay in general needs a lot of work.
Yes, thanks.
In fact, the game is very great, I would say one of the best in this jam. Basically, you can make the game little easier, and it will be very nice.
