Welp i was gonna post my 20k record but i didnt screen shot it before signing in so its gone. The way you get that high is by rushing to get the roof top cooker. Start by buying the oven first and then putting all left over energy into the fan. You might need to turn to oven off a few times but the van will make it to day 5 which will be when you can afford the cooker.From there the heat will start to overwhelm you so you will need the generator to hold off until you can buy the delux fan (make sure the 4 spaces on the left of the truck are unused you will need them for the best fan). Next buy the best fan. This will cool your van rapidly so buy rotisserie. you can handle the heat. The thing about the rotisserie is that it costs 1.5 dollars to increase the generator output and the rotisserie gives 2.5 for every energy put in it. So if your van is at risk of freezing spam this to keep it from freezing and giving you so much money. Now this wont last forever. get the other roof top cookers because once you need to start putting energy into other things than the cooker you are likely going to be better of selling it. (more information needed here) by endgame you will need to just have the best fan in all 4 spots. Once it costs more to run the generator than the profit let your van die.

honestly this game is just shit fix the fucking heat it shouldn't get to the point were i get the best fan i have and have to put it on max power so im making no money and still lose on day 8

the heat is just dumb i had the fans with no power an nothing on that generates heat and it still rose really fast

It's a fun game but the heat just keeps rising way too fast and theres no real way to earn money while also successfully beating the heat.

Like, theres zero chance for progression. The heat just gets you before you can do anything.

it stops being fun when the game just wont let you progress. 

i like the game but i dont really understand it

ok I made a lot of money Can someone make it so that I can maybe upgrade my truck down the line and increase the space? This feels a bit cramped.

Nice high score! And cool suggestions. Truck size upgrades would be neat

just put my 3rd extra large fan when the game decided to jUST ramp of the heat and strait up kill me

(+2)

Took me a few games to understand that the outside thermometer is... a representation of the heat outside (duh).

I like that the game starts quite slow, so you can process what you're looking at first.

Brilliant little game :) Very neatly designed.
