You can cram up to four people onto one screen, or (as is the purpose of this beta) go online. While you can play solo, this is obviously a game meant to be played with friends, if only to have one person sit in the back of the lorry and hold the boxes down. Cars feel almost drivable until you attempt to go around a corner, and you learn that everything needs to be taken slowly if you don't want to completely demolish what you're trying to deliver. Vehicles are controlled by hopping onto them, grabbing their control stick and wiggling it. Once grappled, you can lift your arms, but that's about it. They're engineered for comedy failure, not precision.Īside from a deliberate pratfall button, controls are limited to basic movement, camera control and ordering your stubby-yet-noodly arms to grab whatever's in front of you. The controls are simple whether you use mouse and keyboard or gamepad, but not easy. There's a bit of its style to this game's open world map, letting players bumble around until they activate a mission, at which point everything turns into a comedy of errors.

Yes, the enduring Ouya flagship, the world's premiere Swindon simulator. While there's easy comparisons to be drawn between Totally Reliable Delivery Service and recent wobbly people games like Human Fall Flat or Gang Beasts, I'm most reminded of Amazing Frog. Grab the beta version free, here on Steam, or check see the trailer below. Starting today and for the next two weeks, you and pals can try to wrangle crates around a world that feels like it's made entirely of polystyrene. That's good for us, as it means we can all try it free. While playable solo or in split-screen for up to four, We're Five Games want to test the networking for their flailing comedy deliver 'em up.

The humble fetch quest - mindless fodder for an MMORPG hero, but a terrifying ordeal for the wobbly balloon people of Totally Reliable Delivery Service.
