The train is about to leave and you have 1 minute to get all the passengers in.
How many passengers can you send off on time?

Very creative game, I believe it would work amazingly on a touchscreen.
Awesome graphics, nice music and sounds! The gameplay is a cool idea if a bit repetitive (my poor arm!) - would be cool to have different challenges or people with different attributes (speed? size? etc).
But a great game that lends itself well to a leaderboard!
The music, sound effects, and visuals seemed consistent and fit well together. Seems like a nice simple game where all the piece match together really well. Way to go!
For whatever reason I started to imagine Insaniquarium like items that you could drop in the world to either help group up the train-goers (wifi emitting router?), or scare them away from threats (taxi drivers?).
@Berbecarul
Yes Android support is hopefully coming during this week.
@dollarone
Thanks! Yes there is a list of several additional passenger types, and gameplay features in my development backlog... Just wanted to dish out a working first version till the deadline... Congratulations to the highscore btw ;) Bringing out a smartphone version will probably solve the hurting arm problem to a certain extent...
@wareification Thank you! Yes there are ideas like that on my backlog.... I hope we can release a polished up version (proper titlescreen/menu, ingame leaderboard and also Pixelart UI instead of Unity standard) :)
A well executed and polished simple reaction challenge. I like that.
The problem is how long it takes to become proper challenging. With the current values (starts at 20 passengers and adds 10 every round) I had to play until the eleventh train to finally lose. If you release a new version at some point I'd change the progression so that 20 passenger are added every round. This way the fifth train is already a tough challenge and the sixth one...
Touch controls are also going to be slightly faster than a mouse as you can use multiple fingers to flick Asian business men around. Wait, does that sound dirty?

Oh my hand. It hurts. Awesome game, you really put some effort into the details on this one! I just love the guys "let me the hell down man" animation :D And the music got me nodding my head while I'm waiting for the train.
