| May 11 15:23:58 | Tears and Snails | ♥ 1 | I liked the idea of this, and I dunno if it was just bad luck or what, but basically all the cards I could purchase until the second-to-last round were either "cry and reduce cost by 2" or "draw more cards". I needed to deliver a bunch of tears, and when the trades came up post-delivery, almost none of them were for tears. With that said, I could totally see this being awesome with some more time balancing and such :D I totally get that you had limited time, especially in the compo! And I looooooooove trading in games, so heck yeah! | |
| May 11 15:33:07 | 9m 09s | Fine I'll Do It Myself | ♥ 1 | Once I realized there was no limit on how far you could yet yourself, I couldn't stop cracking up! I really wanna see a video of someone completing level 1 in one shot. Level 2 on the other hand... omg I think I got close to the end but idk. I love that a roof was added so it couldn't just be a yeet-stravaganza again (and that it was left as an option for the first one!), and the way that it meant the box would roll and tumble as it hit it (or even as I shot low but far so it would have loads of forward momentum as it hit the ground) was just as hilarious and fun. Great job! |
| May 11 15:50:14 | 17m 07s | Deliver to Whence you Came | ♥ 1 | Wow, the ??? ability is so clever! I love what a twist that adds to the game, although I'll admit I got stuck later in the game on a screen because I just couldn't make the ground do what I wanted it to do 🤣 It was still a fantastic, really unique experience! And I'm excited to see how it ends, I'm super curious where the game is going 👏 |
| May 11 16:27:44 | 37m 30s | Debbie's Diner Derby | ♥ 0 | OMGGGGGGGGGGGG this is such an adorable game and I aspire to be as cute as rollergirl! I'm already as clumsy as she is 🤣 Literally when I first heard about places where people on rollerskates brought food out, I knew this is what would happen if I worked there (and I got 1 star on most levels, soooooo...). I also loved that there was no potential failure, so I could still explore all of the levels, even with my minimal number of stars 🤣 Y'all did amazingly well with this! |
| May 11 17:47:29 | 1h 19m | De-Liverance of a God | ♥ 1 | Oh wow, this is such a clever idea, and my favorite twist on the theme! And that ending, omg 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 That was 100% worth it. It was fun being able to "chat" with mythological gods, and I ended up getting Zeus to give me the answer after like 3 prompts (I literally just asked), which was even more amazing and epic than having to overcome tricking him or something honestly 👏 |
| May 11 18:07:28 | 19m 59s | Subprime Shipping | ♥ 1 | This was cute, and as someone who used to make deliveries (and actually rolled a box truck down a hill... I was fine, the truck wasn't), this was very fitting! I did learn, though, that using the arrow keys to move without touching WASD means the timer never starts. I was just fiddling with them to try to make the camera angled up better and it made the vehicle move and I noticed that. But it was still nice having the stress of not losing anything out of my vehicle! I liked this one, well done :D |
| May 11 19:04:26 | 56m 58s | GoBat | ♥ 0 | This was so cute 🎁🧡 I was confused why the bunny I delivered a gift to often kicked it away, even though the color matched, but it WAS really cute seeing them boot the gifts away 🤣 Plus the music is super fitting and I liked that there were two game modes! I would've loved a lil ring around the bunnies to show where to drop the gifts as I very frequently missed giving the gift to them, but these are all things that can be addressed with a post-jam edition. Well done! Plus, seriously, it's so so so dang cute! |
| May 12 20:12:51 | 25h 08m | Package Panik | ♥ 4 | I love these kinds of games! This one had a lot more thinking than a lot of em do (I usually play idle games where loss is impossible, and the puzzliness of figuring out where to put the depots was a cool addition!). I didn't make it all that far, but I did unlock all of the areas which was cool :D And it was super fun watching all my vehicles run all over! |
| May 12 22:08:38 | 1h 55m | shape shipper | ♥ 1 | Whew, this gets tough! I love the concept and execution though, especially in 48 hours! It's cool being able to make so much with just those four shapes, and it's so much more intuitive to move yourself to rotate the shapes than to move the mouse or something. I got a bit confused at one point when I picked up a shape and was trying to place it but it was already rotated or something so it didn't go the way the top piece was lined up, but I just set it aside. And I wish that your hands would get emptied after a round, as I sometimes had to empty them after the round began and lost a few seconds because of it. But neither of those is any kind of major a all, it was fun! I got to the fourth day before one of the shapes blew my mind and I didn't quite finish it 🤣 |
| May 12 22:30:35 | 21m 57s | Postal Town | ♥ 1 | The art in this game is SOOOOOOOOOO freaking cute!!!!! Goodness, watching the delivery people bob around picking stuff up and come back is so lovely 🧡 Plus it all looks like papercraft on a piece of paper, that's brilliant! This is definitely one of my favorite LD53 games so far :D Plus it was a lot of fun once I figured out what I was doing lol |
| May 12 23:04:51 | 34m 16s | Bundle Beeline | ♥ 1 | The art, animations, and style of this game are so cute and terrific! And once I got a grip on what the map was like the route went way better (which is 100% accurate for when I was a delivery person myself; learning my surroundings helped sooooooooo much!). And seriously, this is soooooooooooo cute!!! 🧡 |
| May 12 23:39:58 | 35m 07s | Rhino Express | ♥ 1 | Wow, this was an epic entry, especially for a compo entry! I totally expected the game to end after the first set of levels and was all set to say how easy it was, and then... there was so much more! And there were a lot of cool additions throughout that led to lots of cool thinking/planning/feeling super smart 🧠 Well done! |
| May 13 01:35:08 | 1h 55m | Serum Run | ♥ 2 | I was thinking this was a lil too easy but as the game went on it got worse and worse and then I barely ran out of time... Which means this was really well balanced! I loved how tense it was and how it really felt like every choice mattered. You did a great job with the art and the text, it set the scene so well! I loved seeing the aurora borealis, and then whatever that red sky was! And I'm still so curious about what some of the events were, but my people sure didn't enjoy seeing them as there was so much awfulness out there that they kept freaking out 🤣 All of that to say that I loved this, and it's one of my fav LD53 entries! Well done! 🧡 |
| May 13 02:15:22 | 40m 14s | Air Delivery | ♥ 0 | This was an amazing, terrific adventure, and it blows my mind that you made it in 48 hours. It's a full-fledged adventure with some sweet, adorable writing and some cool light-Metroidvania-ness going on! I especially loved gliding around, and it was great how tight the controls were even on my laptop keyboard! I gladly 100%-ed this one and look forward to checking out other things you've made, as well as future LD entries from you :D |
| May 13 02:55:02 | 39m 40s | Broomstick Post | ♥ 1 | LIZZIE made a potion that turns people into RAINBOW slimes and that didn't CONFORM. OMG that's the first thing I did and I love this so much. Lizzie is one of my nicknames and I'm trans and love rainbows so that's freaking glorious 🧡 This was a much bigger game than I expected. I really figured I'd be giving those five things out, and that the challenge was to remember who to give them to since the name doesn't show at that point, but nope! Way more to it than that! I loved how much interaction there was between the people; it feels like many of the delivery games I've played during this LD have nailed it on delivering things but not been great on feeling like a community of people, and this one did that really well :D Plus the art was super cute and so were the characters! And I can't remember which one it was now but they kept referring to one of the characters as "they", so unless I'm wrong... hurray for nonbinary representation!!! 🧡🧡🧡 |
| May 13 04:01:29 | 1h 06m | A Message for the Stone King | ♥ 1 | This is really well done! I actually played twice in the hopes that I could get a different ending and, while I didn't, I did appreciate the slight differences. Without spoiling anything, I also really liked the change in the minigame toward the end, that felt really impactful! I also, in hindsight, love that I couldn't get (or at least couldn't figure out) a second ending as trying to make a king do something they don't wanna do is essentially impossible (and the point anyway tbh lol). Well done! Oh and I forgot to mention that I LOVE how well that art style works, and the animations on the king. And the concept of learning how to speak with him in a way that'll actually matter is so epic! |
| May 13 04:40:10 | 38m 41s | Finicky Delivery AI - ChatGPT Powers This Game! | ♥ 1 | OMG I have no idea how people are getting such high scores 😭 I literally do customer service for a living and have for like 20 years, so this was a delightful experience (no sarcasm, I really mean it). I really enjoyed being able to turn around the bad moods of these cute animals (I'd be upset about stale garlic bread too tbh) and then I played it one last time so I could be super rude back since I can never ever do that irl, but it made me sad inside being mean to them. I'm so glad I validated that in a video game though instead of irl (and losing my irl job in the process). |
| May 13 05:22:56 | 42m 46s | Neo City Express | ♥ 1 | Oh my goodness, this was absolutely hysterica, and it was a lot of fun (and tense af!). I'm soooooooo glad I'm a quick typer cuz otherwise I never would've stood a chance, and the fact that I've actually texted and driven far too many times probably helped too 🤣 But shhhhhhhhhh 100% would not recommend. Seriously though, this was incredible! I had to play without audio so I'm sad I missed out on the voice acting, but seriously this was a huge surprise of a game and had terrific dialogue, gameplay, and art, and it was done for Ludum Dare?!?! Howwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww?!?!?! PS: I love the baby delivery comment lol, way to get that into the game in addition to being a game about making deliveries 🤣 |
