About This Game Forktruck Challenge is a game about moving cargo from point A to point B. Players test their accuracy skills to the limit by operating heavy lifting machinery. You gain points for successfully delivering cargo as fast as you can. Good luck with multiplayer heavy lifting. 1075eedd30 Title: Fork Truck ChallengeGenre: Indie, Simulation, Early AccessDeveloper:Mint Arcade Ltd.Publisher:Mint Arcade Ltd.Release Date: 24 Jul, 2015 Fork Truck Challenge Download For Pc [FULL] Very sloppy game play. The fork truck either goes super slow or super fast. Damage occurs to the loads for no apparent reason. Its not worth the frustrating playing it. I removed the game from my computer.. Game is very incomplete. The notepad paper that tells you controls keeps falling. Cannot invite people for multiplayer. Steering to sensitive.. so being a Forklift operator AND a gamer i think i'm qualified to review this game, so first of all the physics in this game are rubbish, the propper way to pick up cargo is to align your truck, then drive forward until your gate hits the cargo (this is ofcourse done very slowly and depending on what you are picking up) but even slightly toutching the cargo will cause it to fly backwards... then you lift it a few inches of the gound before tilting your forks bakwards so the cargo wont slipp of, doing so ingame causes your forks to tilt bacwards BUT your cargo does not, like the pallet was made from ice and attatched to the wall. ok so you have flimsily picked up you cargo now what? well when you have picked up the cargo your turn rate falls into the "overloaded cargo ship" range, what should have been a simply 2 turn manouver suddenly became a 19 turn manouver "jikes" this could have been a nice little forklift sim but the games engin does not work properly making this a disaster. Multiplayer doesn't work...glitchy...needs WORK.. Not enough content for an $8 price tag although, if the devs put some work into adding more content and making this a decent release once it leaves Early Access (and that's a big "if"), then this might be worth it some day on sale for $4 or what have you.A little background, I drive powered equipment at work and that includes a fork truck so I picked this up since it piqued my interest. I've driven fork trucks in games like GTA and the like but nothing dedicated to a realistic fork truck driving experience so I figured I give this game a try to see how it measured up.It's not bad as far as the driving goes. One thing I was curious about was the POV since you often have to move around in a fork truck, leaning out, leaning forward, looking up, looking behind, etc, to make sure you're lined up, aren't about to smash into things, aren't about to stab something, etc and this game gets around that by giving you two forms of mouse look. The default lets you lean left\/right\/forward\/back and holding left-click lets you look like you would in an FPS game. Pretty handy although I wish there was a toggle mode for this since you don't often use both types at the same time. I still have some issues with the driving but nothing major.The main flaw is the lack of content and polish. It's Early Access but it's being sold for $8 so I won't hold back criticisms.You get a couple small levels and you can move pallets around within them. Your goals only include taking a pallet marked "target" and moving it to a "destination" area. Both are randomly chosen as you play. There is no way to damage the goods (although you can flip them over or cause them to be unrecoverable) and the destination zone is very loose so the "Challenge" in the title is a bit misleading. In a normal warehouse space is a big concern so you don't get to just loosely toss a pallet somewhere. You normally have to pack them into a rack like sardines without damaging anything. The game also lacks some polish like a way to back out of menus or reset the fork truck if you roll it over. Nothing that can't be fixed in time.Overall, it might one day be a decent title for simulator fans but right now I don't feel it's worth $4 let alone $8 so hold off and maybe check back in later to see if it's been improved. I will certainly update this review if that happens.
