on Forklift Monkeys as Programmer

Forklift Monkeys is a third-person couch co-op battle arena game where you play as one of four forklift driving monkeys. Build up power as you navigate the arena, and earn points by running into other players and sending them flying off the arena into the bottomless pit below. The monkey with the most points after 60 seconds wins!
