Goal of the game - Refill ore at the 'refill-station/platform'. Carry as much you can-, as fast as you can, to the 'deposit station/platform'. Gain the required score and proceed to the next level. You can either play it safe (and steadily progress) or put your life at risk for faster- and greater rewards.

With inspiration from early 80's sci-fi movies and computers (Blade Runner, and the Commodore PET), we offer a fun and addictive game that can, at first glance, seem brutally hard. However, it is far from impossible to master. Put your skills to test (and your friends) and compete for the highest scores!
This is our first game jam, so please go easy on us. With that being said, we had an amazing time making this game, and we are really happy with the result. Happy enough that we want to refine the concept (the cargo and physics mainly) and release it eventually. :smile: Let us know what you think of it of it!

LIVES - Crash and you'll lose. Don't worry, everyone is dispensable.

TIME - Efficiency is key to SUCCESS, wanna be the best of the best? You'll get a bonus check.
