Welcome to the pinnacle of farming-racing-simulation!

Finally you can play out the dream of being a farmer with a hard-on for racing, and too little time for casual, slow driving. Challenge yourself in maximizing the area of farmland that you can plow in a mere 60 seconds - feel free to post your best score down below.

You control a truck connected to a plow/harrow, and have a handful of maps to attempt to plow as much as possible of, until the timer runs out.
Your tools are left/right steering and throttle, as well as boost and flip - to restore you after you inevitably fall over.

2 player support! Standard keybinds are:

#### Player 1:
- Arrow keys: Turn/accelerate/slow down
- Right control: Boost
- Alt Gr: Flip

#### Player 2:
- WASD: Turn/accelerate/slow down
- Left control: Boost
- Left alt: Flip

To enable player two, press any of the keybinds for player 2 during the very first screen ingame and an additional tractor will spawn.

Play the game on WEB here!

Made by 3 friends, 2 second-timers and one joining ludum dare for his first entry.

Played this drunk with a friend, it was an a+ time. Good work! Good clean physics nonsense fun

deltagardner24 Apr 2018, 04:54

^^I am the friend and I heartily concur. Good job!

don.shinski24 Apr 2018, 04:56

played this sober with a friend, super fun... great job. enjoyed "quitting" the game :laughing:

Imaginesto24 Apr 2018, 05:18

Hahaha! So Great!!!

emiko24 Apr 2018, 05:18

What a great mash up of genres! I had a GREAT time racing through the level and it was really satisfying to see that combine go spinning out of control. My only complaint is that I'd spend the rest of the level going back and cleaning up what I missed. :( Like a kid having to clean my room!

I think a time trial mode where it dropped you into a giant field and you just had to see how many squares you could get in 60 seconds would be a super fun addition!

Really fun game! Great job!

Lumous24 Apr 2018, 05:26

Lots of fun! A bit rediculous but if you keep your speed down its quite drivable :)

Fun little game, had to drive slow otherwise I kept flipping but lots of fun.

jchaplin24 Apr 2018, 17:21

Love it! Fantastic job!

HagamosVideojuegos24 Apr 2018, 17:39

I like so much the 3D and it's so funny playing with other more! :laughing:

Mowztouch24 Apr 2018, 18:03

Tractor's physics are amazingly realistic. I always drive my tractor this way. With Alt gr :)
Very good entry, i was stuck sometimes, and alt gr didn't work ( well, just like in real life x) ) but that's one of my favorite entry i've tried so far. Good job !

@Mowztouch Haha "I always drive my tractor this way" made me laugh!
Thanks everyone for trying out our game, see you out there in the fields!

Really good, I had this same idea when the theme was announced but 'chickened' out. I thought it was well delivered, a fun little game with a good amount of content and nice style.

soldierbear24 Apr 2018, 21:25

Clever idea with great exectuion. Great submission!

Carvster24 Apr 2018, 21:36

Fun little game!

Hannah24 Apr 2018, 21:52

Great fun - very frantic! The audio really helped sell it, as did the cows.

Jima25 Apr 2018, 05:06

Ha ha nice game! A loved the fact that you made trees physical objects. I spent a lot of time in second level just running into trees, haystacks and cows. And I enjoyed it!

Shelvid25 Apr 2018, 18:05

909 score. totally a mastapieecah.

RadioactiveRambo25 Apr 2018, 18:10

Nice combination of themes and good execution. The game feels slick and is a lot of fun to play. The tractor pulls to the right, but I think that's intentional. Either way, it made the game a lot more challenging than it looks. Great entry.

saiodin25 Apr 2018, 20:53

Bhahahahah! :'D I couldn't stop laughing! Jeez man... Freaking cows flying everywhere

Harry Jacobs25 Apr 2018, 21:16

Hilarious! Surprisingly difficult as well. Really good idea that fits well with the theme. Great work!

ProfessorRekylauthor25 Apr 2018, 21:42

@saiodin Thank you for your positive comment! Aye regarding the controls, in this case wasd is for player 2 to join. A gamepad would be even better! (We used x-box controllers) Maybe we should check out to make it easier to change controls? Well thanks for your great comment! :ok_hand:

GregWLyons28 Apr 2018, 18:12

hey, I am a big fan of the menu system being part of the game/controls. The lil' tractor felt like moving around a toy tractor and the hairpin turns were quite annoying, but that seemed like part of the game. The moving around the obstacles was fun, too. I would have liked the physical objects to feel different when hitting them or having some destruction dynamics. Nicely done. Cheers!

Farming is hard! I've got a slight fps drop on big level preload. The game is fun to play, huge potential. Night setting is amazing. I'd like to see more challenge when you play single player mode — something like 'touch N tiles in M seconds' not just 'reach the finish tile in M seconds'. Just a bit of challenge.

Here is my playtest:

Frederika7 May 2018, 03:24

This is a fun game! The controls are bit difficult, but that seems to be the point. The night level looks really good, too.
