I made this little game in 1 day for Ludum Dare 58, and have taken a bit of time to polish it for Hacker News. I am fascinated by the way the multi-vehicle travelling salesman problem seems so simple on the surface, but actually has an almost infinite number of solutions. I thought it might be interesting to put this problem into a game so you can feel the tension between the simplicity and complexity for yourself.
