Forking Hell
Forking Hell (do you like the pun?) is a 3D casual arcade-simulation game where the player guides a forklift vehicle around a virtual warehouse and completes customer orders over the working days.
Welcome to your new job
You work in the Amazing Logistics warehouse, the robot powered e-commerce service of the future. Start by learning to drive a personalised forklift to get your driving licence. You will then begin your job as a forklift driver, collecting packages and delivering them to the truck through the working day. Be careful, the RUMBA-BOTS will zoom around the warehouse stocking up shelves and crashing into you, and could cause you to damage or break customer packages! You will work in different sections of the Amazing warehouse through multiple levels of gameplay, retrieving all sorts of products including office supplies, home furniture and decorations. Some items can easily be explode and be lost forever, while some items can just fall out of their crate. The game includes physics elements to add a challenge to the levels, and add to the simulation experience!
Additional gamemodes and experiences
- Racing minigame: Race against the RUMBA-BOTS and ensure they cannot beat your powerful and speedy forklift throughout different warehouse courses!
- Live internet radios: Listen to your favourite internet stations live during the game to help get some fresh music live while progressing through your arcade mode.
- Online Multiplayer: Join up with your friends in an online lobby, and drive around completing orders together. Crash into your friends and causing chaos is totally in the rules!
Single player experience
Forking Hell is a wonderful little game to play solo as a way to escape reality and just chill out. The chaos of the RUMBA-BOTS combined with the semi-realistic physics helps give an arcade style to the simulation genre. The game is built with controller or keyboard/mouse input to support various play-styles and preferences.
Based on a university prototype
This product was originally planned and built as part of a university class by Louis Byers in 2020.

What can I say, first impressions were a bit mixed due to the blocky styled menu. However once completing the first few missions it shows that is the theme throughout.
I encountered a few bugs in level 1 to which I used the quick and easy "Report a Bug" feature and within a day the bug was fixed.
The levels are fun and enthusiastic with an element of difficulty increasing with each step.
I did mention to the Developer about possibly moving the AI Robots to a further level to allow the end-user more experience in playing the game before obstacles like them.
After a few messages to and throw it is clear that he is Open to all ideas and the best part. Friendly too!
Overall this is a great game for a first release and cannot wait to see the future updates!

It's good. It's pretty simple, you unload boxes from a warehouse and load it into a truck while creating tornados in the warehouse as you tokyo drift around the place.
This could be an interesting border game between Euro Truck Sim, you play the guy who's loading up the truck. Maybe there's some hidden lore and story to explore!

I have only just got the game but I can tell this is a good one. Fun concept with great controls, takes a second to get used to driving but when you have got it you have got it. good work man!!

Well, I won that game on TruckStopRadio's 1 Year celebration. I played a little bit with this game, so basically these are my first impressions of it.
This game is interesting.
What I like:
- The idea of the game. It seems it is an easy game, but not always. There are annoying robots and they annoys you really hard, so you need to avoid them.
- "low budget looking", basically you can run this on everything, and the graphics is not like Red Dead Redemption 2, but that doesn't matter in this game.
- Built in radio stations. The stations are fine in the game, you can choose from a few.
- Customizable forklift
What I don't like:
- Physics sometimes go crazy, but this is understandable if we read the "Hell" word from the game title.
Sum up:
More than 3 euro is okay for this game, would be fun with others, especially the game has a multiplayer mode. If you bored defo can recommend it.

Decent game with potential, lacking alot of features. Could use more robust engine for graphics and physics, other then that decent game.

Imagine dark souls, but instead you're a forklift driver.
Fun game.
I still like this in 2023
