The Working Title

Monster Crashing Truck

Concept Statement

At a harsh dessert with full of monsters, you got a powerful truck which can crash the monsters into meat sauces. To not becoming the snack of monsters, try to survive as long as you could. There are unknown amount of monsters in the dessert, somehow we need different killing method for different monsters. Try to persist until the arrival of reinforcements!!!

Genre/Category of Game

Monster Crashing Car is a top down, action adventure & survival 2D game. It is basically single player game.

Player controls the truck to move around in a dessert map. Player is not only required to run away from the monster, but also need to kill the monsters before the truck is damaged & destroyed by the monsters.

Concept Creation Process

The concept of this game is a mash up of <Monster Truck 2020> & <Zombie High Way>.

Getting concept from this two games, which <Monster Crashing Truck> can be more funny & savage.

The game is having a real "monster" truck which we actually have 'monsters' in our game world instead of only trucks as if the <Monster Truck 2020>. We set aside the limitation of just racing in the space restricted track, which the player is capable to drive around in a wider area and there will be more exciting to handle with different monsters.

Audience & Competitive

This game apply an easy operation to control the movement and using some function to handle different kind of monsters. Thus, without requiring of a professional gaming skill, the game is simple to get started. This game can get the attraction from players with different ages, gender, & interest.

However, a simple operating control doesn't mean it is a boring and easy game. <Monster Crashing Truck> is actually quite challenging and stimulating as there will be more monsters as the levels increase over time. Players are required a high-speed response capability to handle with particular monsters or they will damaged your truck.

Crashing into the monsters will bring pleasure to players and it is stress releasing. Teenagers nowadays are getting too much stress, they got too many stuff to handle, homework, jobs, peer pressure......So, this game will also attract most of the teenagers to express their bad feeling which come from real life in this virtual world.

Trying to find a game to vent your emotion? Try to kill some monsters and imaging them as your annoying boss?

Here is the <Monster Crashing Truck> for you!!
