Tacopocalypse is a taco delivery game inspired by games like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, Crazy Taxi, and Jet Set Radio. I was lured into playing this by the fancy graphics in the trailer, but you can get the most out of this game by watching the trailer than actually playing it. The art style is fantastic, and the sounds + punk soundtrack really flow well with it.

My main disappointment was with the lack of content. There's one mode (two if you count the local multiplayer), with only one objective. Your objective is to deliver tacos (within a time limit), and get style points by doing stunts during the process. With the cash you make from delivering tacos you can buy 2 new cars and customize them but that's about it. You can collect hidden songs along the way which I thought was a nice touch, but there's just not enough incentive to play this. It doesn't help that there's no guidance system to tell you where you need to deliver the tacos, which is odd cuz they do point you in the direction of where you can stock back up on tacos after you've run out.

There are 4 levels, which is a small amount but they're big and intricate enough to where you can pull off some neat tricks and grinds while being visually flashy. There aren't enough collectibles or objectives, so this makes them feel a bit too empty. The controls/physics were a little too over the top for my taste, there's too much freedom here with the ability to flip that I end up losing control, but I think this may be personal preference because the game is meant to be over the top and ridiculous. If you can get used them you may have more fun performing sunts than I did. There didn't seem to be much depth to the stunts you can do, you do flips by rotating your car and grind rails but that's all I noticed.

There were some minor bugs I encountered with my short time with the game, including getting a black screen on the first level I played after the tutorial, falling through the ground (not a big deal cuz you can reset your vehicle with ease), and music not playing. I don't know the success rate of the dev fixing bugs, but the dev does respond to bug submissions on the forum.

In its current state, I can't recommend Tacopocalypse. You might be able to get a few minutes of enjoyment out of it, but there's just not enough to do. This comes off more as a tech demo or art project than a game, which is unfortunate because I would love to see this art style, open world level design, and sound/music implemented into a game with a substantial amount of gameplay. I think it's a really cool concept, but not a good execution.
