Sambar Scamper challenges you to deliver as many crates as you can to Wakamiya Hachiman Shrine without dropping them. Your Subaru Sambar mini pickup delivers 40HP of pure driving joy, speeding you toward your destination quickly, so don't run into a cherry tree!
Try backing up slightly onto the star while the crates are dropping to keep them from falling over when you accelerate.
Made with Aseprite, SFML and Box2d.
On Windows, use Sambar_Windows_64.zip

This game is a certified classic for any mini-truck enjoyer.The art style is excellent and the controls are nice. I was able to finish the first level with 10 crates stacked :)
I like how sometimes your delivery is just immediately scuffed because the crates bounce and become unstable. :lollipop: I love the tiny tracks. It reminds me of racetracks I used to draw on paper back when I was a kid.
@wahooney@cocomendes Working on a Windows build! I have been struggling a bit to get Box2d to compile on Windows, but I should hopefully be able to get one *delivered* :)
Very cool, like an NES Death Stranding. Run this on Linux with WINE no problem. Some of the runs failed upon being initialized because the physics just dropped the stack. But could be an artifact of running it with WINE. Anyways, very creative take on the theme.
I really enjoyed the visuals, and I actually cheated a few times by bypassing most of the roads, but that becomes tricky in the later levels :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Something that might be interesting for the late game is getting money for deliveries, and you can buy single attempt powerups, like rope to slightly increase the stability of your stack.
Thanks for all the feedback, y'all. I noticed the bug with some boxes colliding when they spawn, but I ran out of time to fix it and I also left it in because I thought it was kind of humorous :)
Big fan of games with simple premises you instantly get that keep your playing for a bit trying to do better. The early stacks give a good false sense of security and the risk quickly ramps up. A fun time and the sprite work was really nice for the levels and side view!
I don't know what I did wrong, but somehow i broke the game: after respawn , cargo just keeps falling all by itself without any movement, that's kinda funny)
Fun game! A small random thing, but I like how you displayed the score on the scroll bar :D. A strategy I found is that a lot of times driving of the road was actually the safest and easiest. A few times so many packages spawned that I failed basically right away, but that is minor :). Good job!
Edit: not sure if audio was broken for me or there was none -- I skipped voting on it, if there was none you could have opted out of the category afaik :)

Good entry overall.
It's a good thing there were no traffic police checking for overloading on this road. Just kidding:P
