Running a self-driving taxi fleet from a desk is a great premise. I liked choosing the music before the shift as the difficulty setting (lo-fi easy, jazz for more pay, silence for the most), that's a clever and very in-character idea. In the practice shift I accepted the $96 and $204 requests, watched car 2 drop off its rider for +$210, and learned to push car 1 Faster for a time bonus and then back to Slower, with the tutorial explaining that slow is the safe choice in bad weather. The colourful city grid, the request list with expiry bars and the alerts panel make it easy to read at a glance, and I can see how closed roads, police and storms would make the "who do I save" choices tense.
Funny having music as the difficulty meter.
Clicked faster on the fifth tutorial step but it never went past that (new car joined and first car just started going about other business). So I just skipped tutorial.
Played the first day, started to make sense when I realized I had multiple cars. I just kept accepting the top ride and it mostly worked out. There was one collision with the cars which was interesting, was fun to make one reroute to avoid that. Reached the quota pretty early, with 2:40 left.
Second day was more interesting with the road closures and stuff. It was a bit much tbh, I felt like it was just chaos with accepting rides and re-routing and the honking sfx got a bit annoying but maybe it's just too early in the day for me for this game :)
Nice work! Feels like a really original game and I see some potential in it.
Decent page, and I like that the controls are explained right up front. The tutorial is nice too, and the graphics are decent. The dispatch screen is easy to read, and I could see every car’s fare and time left. Picking the music as the difficulty, with Silence paying more, is a cool idea. After a while it gets kinda dull, though. None of the closures or storms from the briefing showed up for me. If something happened early, it’d keep me on my toes.
played all game modes, lo-fi, hard and jazz the jazz was probably my favourite one. The game honestly made me lose track of time I was really intrigued for quite a while. Only problem for me was the manual control it kept bugging for me unless i was doing it wrong but it was working most of the time, but beside that i really enjoyed this game! Very well done!
The game seemed pretty cool. I also reached $2682 of $2500 with 8 trips, 0 failed.
With a tutorial to guide you through the steps. The rest of what you need to do is rather intuitive and straight forward.
The theme was on point for a Simulation.
The art style, sounds, and clarity were good.
Looking forwards to seeing what more you will do with this project if you do continue with it!
