Early Morning Tofu Delivery
_Another morning in a life of an ordinary boy who is "lucky" to be a son of a tofu-shop keeper. Well, it's exactly like the ordinary life of all other boys if not for the fact that I have to get up earlier than the sun itself, and deliver tofu to strangers down the mountain. I generally don't mind helping father, but this is annoying as hell! I have to drive fast, so I can deal with it as fast as I can, because tofu is quick to spoil, and because I don't want to spend any more time than necessary. Stupid tofu! Why don't he pick something less bothersome, like garden gnomes, or something..._
Deliver your tofu as fast as you can. Drive through checkpoints to make your deliveries, no need to stop at them. Use WASD, arrows or gamepad to drive (LT to accelerate, RT to brake, Left Stick to steer). You can use R (or Select on gamepad) to return to the last checkpoint. Post your best time in the comments and have fun!

Pretty good! there's even under-steer! I wish there was over-steer too as delivering tofu without getting sideways feels somehow wrong. Good job!

The driving controls felt really good and that can be very hard to get right. Good job. Mostly I appreciate the inside look into tofu delivery because I order a lot of tofu in the early morning.

I enjoyed it!
The driving controls are challenging but fun, good job on that.
There was a small bug where momentum and camera angle didn't reset when going back to a previous checkpoint.
The theming would've been just a bit nicer with houses/mailboxes at the checkpoints, but overall still a nice game for sure!

I liked the funky soundtrack, good job on the game overall I think my biggest point of criticism was the turning felt a little off with how unresponsive it is, I think maybe over exaggerated turns would have fit the vibe more.

nice music! Enjoyed the motor sounds, the smooth feel of the graphics, and the vroom vroom. Seemed to be solid. Just don't fall off the track!

I hate to run into a runabout in the night when I don't expect it! :D Anyway, it's a cool night driving simulator, I went offroad (awooo) more often than I'd do in real life but it was interesting to wander around and figure out you have a nice checkpoing system in place (thanks for that!). The audio is particularly good, engine sound is quite soothing :)

I'll always appreciate some tofu delivery action, the music/sound and visuals work very well, but I think the driving physics could've been nicer

The car felt pretty good to drive! I do wish that the turns were less sharp so that I could have more chance to go fast zoom zoom though. Also I fell out the track and didn't know for I while I could reset with R

Fun game, cool controls, loved the music and the fact that the delivery sfx sometimes gets on beat with the music

Good job team! The atmosphere, sounds, level design and controls are great. Everything fit well together. It's also really nice how you recorded and made a timelapse of the process.

As others mentioned, the car felt really good to control, albeit with occasional physics hiccups during some bumps. I also appreciate the fact that you set the game in the dark, it gets the most out of the visuals and it creates a mood of a late night shift tofu delivery, I thought that was really clever. Well done you two, this was a good one!

Had a ton of fun playing this - banger music and great sound effects. Graphics were really good and the physics + controls made things feel weighty. Driving felt kind of real but kind of video-gamey it was a good balance. Wish there was drifting. Appreciate the feel of the car when it bounces off stuff.

Driving was great, loved the controller support, and I thought the jump at the end was a fun touch. Would have been cool to have more of the jumps and physics based stuff in the route.

Love the style and atmosphere, music is good, the graphics are great! The game feels very polished with all the small details, like the engine sound changing with speed and the wheels screeching when you turn (and all the other small JUICY polished effects). My only gripe with the game, if you can even call it that, is that i wish the map was longer :P
All in all, great entry, really fun!
Me getting stuck the first time at the jump:

Nice game. It's noticeable you really cared for the details. I tried heading back to the crossing to deliver the other road and noticed that the delivery checkpoints there were gone, no way to deliver everything.
I always expected some kind of jumpscare when playing though due to the dark atmosphere.

But you managed to achieve a relatively nice one, maybe the brakes could be more effective and the road less bouncy! :D But it was fun to see my truck bounce around every now and then. :) Nice entry, cheers!
