This is my COMPO entry for the Ludum Dare #42. It is my first ever entry to Ludum Dare.
In this game, you operate a forklift and race against the clock to store pallets that come in from Receiving and grab pallets off the shelves to send out through shipping.
If the Receiving counter reaches 20, you are fired and you lose the game. If the Shipping counter reaches 10, same result. Time is money so no messin' around!
Enter the Receiving bay to grab a pallet and then place it on a shelf anywhere you like. When the receiving counter reaches zero, you will get $1,000 for every second left on the timer.
Match any 4 (four) or more same colored pallet either horizontally or vertically and gain a $1,000 bonus for each pallet matched. They will also be removed from the shelf.
Pallets to be shipped will be marked. Grab them from the shelf and take them to the Shipping bay when the red shipping marker appears over them.

All the objects are made from Unity primitives such as Cubes, Capsules, Spheres and Cylinders. The textures were made in Photoshop with the help of a few tutorials and the nVidia Normalmap Filter (not much of an artist). The sounds were recorded using my voice and pitched, filtered and amplified with Audacity. The music was made with a music creator called Bosca Ceoil.

Tips:
- Only remove pallets from the shelves that don't match or are blocking a match. Since you can only have 10 marked pallets on the shelf, you may be forced to remove ones you don't want to.- Clear Receiving as soon as possible to get a bonus for each second left on the clock and also so you have time to clear marked pallets from the shelves.
- Use the boost when taking pallets to Shipping.
