You suck at Parking is a fun little game made by Happy Volcano. It's an arcade-style parking game that gets crazier and harder the further you advance through the 101 levels the game has to offer.
The game is a unique, enjoyable experience and it really captivates you from the moment you boot the game up.
I have some hours in the game and will review the game based on my experience.
Gameplay: I absolutely LOVE the gameplay. It's so simple, yet it can be so challenging. The way the game feels is really well done and I would say that they nailed the whole gameplay side.
All the game mechanics, like police cars chasing you or fireball cannons blasting fireballs, are fun additions to the game in their own right.
Campaign: The single-player levels go from easy to difficult, to more difficult to nearly impossible. I really enjoyed the first 75% of the games offline mode but fell out of love due to the difficulty of the last part of the game. The levels get so stacked that it sort of irked me. There are points where 5 police cars are chasing you through narrow pathways where one mistake means BUSTED. I would recommend that you don't try to perfect all levels on your first playthrough and just focus on finishing all levels. This helped me tremendously.
Online play: The game has a really fun online mode where you battle to park ASAP against (I believe) a maximum of 7 other players. The matchmaking was relatively quick for me, and the games felt smooth. My only gripe was the level of sweatiness of the online base. I was still relatively fresh as I was facing people with 100+ hours in the game almost every game. As I got better at the game, the games did get easier, though. So sticking with it and working on getting better is important for longevity.
Once HV adds a system where you can play online with friends I believe this is really something you can keep revisiting from time to time to have a laugh online.
EDIT: They've added a co-op multiplayer/party system to the game. Tried it yesterday and it worked like a charm. Increasing the rating I gave from a 3.0 to 3.5
Achievements: This is where my complaints are. I am convinced HV hates completionists. The achievements are WAY too hard and half of them are based on online play, which means you need a certain level of luck to even get them. An achievement for completing their Parking Pass, which takes over 100 games of online play, besides completing the entire game and perfecting every level, just takes way too long.
EDIT 2: On 01/12/2022 HV added their new DLC: Inferno.
My initial feeling was very positive. I like the new mechanics they have added for this DLC and the overall looks/feel of the game. About 3/4ths through my playthrough of the campaign maps the heavy breathing, angry groaning, and screaming at my indoor cat started. All the feelings of despair became much worse upon reaching the final level though. "Randomness" is what I would use to describe this one level. I was stuck for around 3 hours before I finally managed to beat it. Being taken down by random events, some of which I still only saw once.
The release I felt after beating the level almost made me appreciative, but I have to be consistent, so: I would recommend this to everyone that doesn't mind a healthy, rage-inducing grind for the last achievements. If you have GPU definitely give it a play, just be weary of the aforementioned last level.
All in all, this is a good game. I enjoyed it and I believe you will too.
