Box Stack: A Forklift Game

[Box Stack: A Forklift Game] is based on the prototype game with the similar title "A Forklift Game" that was made during a game jam hosted back in March 2020 on itch.io.

After some time we decided to take the game further and make it into a complete game for you to enjoy. And for us to learn more about game development. This will be our first complete released title.

The premise of the game is simple. You take control of a Forklift and now run the show at the warehouse. Sort, stack and deliver boxes to it's correct location. Or if you feel like making a mess, feel free. But remember, there is a "cost" of being messy.

[How to play] 

The controls of the game can be found in the Main menu when the game is started. But following is a summary of how to play the game:

Driving the forklift: Using the key "W" drives the forklift forward and the "S" key makes it go backwards. To turn while driving use keys "A" & "D".

Lifting and lowering the forks: Use the keys "Q" & "E" to control the position of the forks.

Locking objects to the forks: Simply press down the "Space bar" key to lock an object to the forks when it's in the correct position. A simple "locking sound" will be played when the locking has been completed. Repeat to unlock an object.

Look at the quest log: By pressing the "Escape" key you will be able to track your progress during play. Here you can also find some other options and reset the forklifts' rotation, if it's sort of drifting forward while driving.

Installing: Download the files and extract them to somewhere on your computer. Then, open the folder and launch the game.
