About the Game

You just got laid off. Your job? Training the AI that replaced you. Now you're crashing on your buddy Danny's couch with an eviction notice and zero prospects.

So you do what anyone would do — start flipping stuff for a living.

HAUL is a first-person reselling sim set in Colburn, a small early-2000s town full of thrift stores, blue bins, sketchy buyers, and just enough strangers to maybe make rent.

SOURCE 

Dig through dusty thrift store shelves, bargain bins, and forgotten lots for items worth more than the locals think. Every aisle in Colburn is a gamble — sometimes you walk out with junk, sometimes a $200 score for pocket change.

UNBOX

Buy mystery lots blind and crack them open at home to find out what you actually paid for. Each box is a small lottery of rare finds, busted electronics, and the occasional wildcard nobody asked for.

CRUISE

Drive across Colburn between thrift runs, post office stops, and shady backyard meetups. Run a red light, clip a fire hydrant, send a pedestrian into low orbit — the locals will remember.

DEAL

Meet up with citizens around town to haggle, lowball, and sweet-talk your way into better margins. Every NPC has their own personality, their own price ceiling, and their own opinion of you.

FLIP

List your finds on Flippr, pack them at the shipping station, and slap a label on for the post office. Build a reputation, climb the seller ranks, and turn your couch-surfing operation into a real business.
