Clustertruck: A Chaotic Physics-Based Truckformer
Clustertruck is a chaotic physics-based truckformer developed by Landfall Games and released in 2016. The game is set in a world where the floor is lava, and the only way to survive is to jump from truck to truck. Players control a character who must navigate through increasingly difficult levels, avoiding obstacles and gaps while trying to stay on top of the trucks.
Clustertruck is a fast-paced and challenging game that requires quick reflexes and good timing. The physics engine is realistic, and the trucks can be difficult to control. However, the game is also very rewarding, and it’s incredibly satisfying to complete a difficult level.
Gameplay
The goal of Clustertruck is to reach the end of each level without falling off the trucks. Players control their character with the WASD keys and the space bar. The WASD keys move the character left, right, forward, and backward, while the space bar makes the character jump.
The trucks in Clustertruck are driven by terrible drivers, so they often swerve, brake, and accelerate unpredictably. This makes it difficult to stay on top of the trucks, and players must be constantly adjusting their position.
In addition to the regular trucks, there are also a variety of other obstacles in the levels, such as gaps, spikes, and moving platforms. Players must use their skills and ingenuity to overcome these obstacles and reach the end of the level.
Levels
Clustertruck features a total of 90 levels, each of which is more difficult than the last. The levels are divided into three different worlds: the City, the Factory, and the Sky.
The City levels are set in a urban environment, with buildings, cars, and other obstacles. The Factory levels are set in a industrial environment, with conveyor belts, gears, and other machinery. The Sky levels are set in a sky-high environment, with floating platforms and wind currents.
