Hey everyone,

In Cargo Corp., you control a spaceship using the [arrow keys].

You goal is to deliver packages from one planet to another. The planetary system you are in is randomly generated at the beginning of each game.

- If you have collected fuel, you can use the [spacebar] to use your boost.

- If you have collected ammo, use [z] to fire your guns to get rid of dangerous meteors.

You can also collect other objects, but I'd rather keep those secret, in order not to spoil you :)

Using chrome is highly recommanded, as the game has only been tested on this browser. It should nevertheless run on any modern browser.

This is a highscore game, so don't hesitate to post your score to compete with others!

Enjoy!

The game was made using Construct 2, you can download the project file if you wish to see how. I also used Photoshop, FLStudio and Audacity.

Very nice game. I just only had a sound problem (too loud!).

Pretty good realisation, and i liked the graphics and music. The gameplay can be tuned up a little)

It looks cool but, where is the source code? It is required for compo entries.

I had more fun with this than I thought I would. Where is the source code? It is required for compo entries.

The source was added, thank you!

Decent gameplay. Tricky to avoid those fire balls.

Wow, this is seriously addictive! The controls and the turning speed are just right to make it challenging but fun. The music is ace too. Will play this again.

Ha - we had similar ideas! Well, conceptually! I wish I thought of adding lines to make the "connected worlds" theme more obvious.

I thought the controls were great too - at first you're like, WAT?! Then when you get it it feel really good. I think this could be polised up into a great game - lots of pickups, lots of particle effects == awesome!

I had a lot of fun playing the game. The controls were pretty sensitive, but I actually like that in games.

Highly addictive game. Great work! I really love the music!

Very enjoyable and solid! The controls feel good and the laser bullets have a nice impact to them; generally a very fun game. :)

simple idea but relly fun. the powerups and the ship controls make the game special and the music is the icing on the cake!

Nice graphics, and audio, I like how level is random generated each time. And that boost... wow! :D

Hi there. Like the look and feel, the way the spaceship moves is great. The music track is also terrific. Managed to get score of 23 after doing about 6 'quests'/deliveries. Great to see Construct2 again! Good job!
