Heyo! The game starts with the "Work complete!" window up and i can't seem to be able to close it, so it ends up covering most screen. Still pretty nice to play though!
Altough maybe too easy? Perhaps making navigation harder through more obstacles or slower off-road speed would make it more challenging? Just a suggestion though.
PS: I was able to close the "Work complete!" window once i was in store, guess that's cause the button's function changes from roll.
Oh and now that i have items, optimising a delivery path using player placed pads seems pretty cool, but idk if it's worth it ;P.

Hey, so i played through your game ;)
What grabbed my attention was the nice orange - blue color pallete.
Obviously, as of now, there isn't much else that makes the game stand out ;p. If you have some time and ideas, try adding a unique mechanic, it may seem like there's nothing left to invent in the genere, but even a small twist can make a big difference.
The controlls are ok, a bit slippery.
Level design is simple, but that's how normal for prototype, i liked the use of lasers. I'm not really good at platformers, but only level 8 was challenging.
A couple of minor issues:
- After completing game, if you backtrack and complete a level, you cannot go to further levels, you have to beat each level again from that level.
- Going uphill is very slow (maybe it's intentional).
- The camera doesn't capture level borders.
- SFX option doesn't change anything.
Good luck on further development!
The graphics are great!
Controls feel a bit slippery, but can adjust.
Aiming is kind of a pain, you can only aim in 2 directions, no diagonals or up and down.
The movement sound is kinda weird, other than that, sfx and soundtrack are good.
The ai is.. well I'd say it's good, it doesn't get stuck often enough to make the game unfun.
Overall, great game for an evening, hopefully it would see some more depth added and improvements, cause damn, the graphics look great!
