| May 2 00:57:31 | Delivery Duck | ♥ 4 | I think it would be nice if you could see where you're taking the packages before you actually run down those little alleys near the end - and if instead of resetting the scene when you deliver all the packages, you could make it a score attack where you keep respawning packages on either side. Neat game nonetheless!!! | |
| May 2 01:16:48 | 19m 17s | Lern Island Letters | ♥ 4 | Really neat concept! I was kinda confused though - it seemed like there was an undercurrent where I should have been sending evidence of the ruins to that one specific person, but whenever I did, it would always come back as mis-sent and the game wouldn't acknowledge it. I even sent the final letter stating the ruins' existence outright to her and I still got the ending where the island couldn't be saved. I also would have liked some more intricate puzzles to the letters - 5-6 days in and the majority of the mail is still being labelled by-name, whereas the intro letter made me feel like I was going to have to do more detective work to tell what was going to who. Still though, it was a cool game and I really enjoyed the vibes. Great work!!! |
| May 2 01:22:37 | 5m 49s | Pipebomb in your Mailbox | ♥ 0 | Love the pixel art :) congrats on your first jam game, great job!!! |
| May 2 01:30:14 | 7m 37s | Bad News Network | ♥ 2 | Cool game with a great presentation - though on my second run I found it was pretty easy to go infinite by just doing a simple 2/2/2 pattern. Once you do that, it basically just becomes an RNG game of when you'll get clogged with too many pieces of one topic. Still, great job! |
| May 2 01:36:28 | 6m 14s | Syntech Surfer | ♥ 3 | Awesome vibes - I wish there was a little more to the movement though, especially since the whole game is centered around it; as far as I could tell it was just the jump and the boost. Good job nonetheless!! |
| May 2 01:40:30 | 4m 02s | HUBERT | ♥ 3 | Fun, but REALLY tough! I think the collision damage is kinda overzealous - clipping on anything even slightly just kills a run as far as I can tell. Love the vibes and the gameplay though. |
| May 2 01:53:29 | 12m 59s | Dressed Delivery | ♥ 3 | LOVE this game!!! fantastic art and music and really cool gameplay. Design wise, I'd love to be able to see enemy health so I could make more informed decisions about who to prioritize - additionally, I feel like Move is an almost useless ability when you can just knock enemies back to deal damage AND get out of their danger zone. Would love to see this turn into a full game. Great work!!!! |
| May 2 02:01:35 | 8m 06s | Portal Package Panic | ♥ 3 | Love the art for this a LOT - you've touched upon my bias for witchy magyks. Cute little game, great job!! |
| May 2 02:08:43 | 7m 08s | Bunpacking | ♥ 2 | Love this artstyle so much! It's pretty easy to kite the raccoons, though maybe my bunny reflexes are just too good :) great job! |
| May 2 03:47:08 | 1h 38m | Purrfect Delivery | ♥ 14 | Very cute game!! I feel like the popups are kinda harsh though - they ramp up super quickly. Good job :) |
| May 2 04:08:10 | 21m 02s | To Infinibee And Beyond! | ♥ 5 | Really cute game!! I almost want some sort of dive feature so I can go down faster to get flowers from above, instead of kinda circling them till I glide down naturally. Still though, I liked it - good job!! |
| May 2 04:12:25 | 4m 15s | Awazon Warehouse Simulator | ♥ 0 | I feel like the inverted steering controls kinda get in the way - still though, good job on your first jam!!! |
| May 2 04:15:54 | 3m 29s | Hexpress | ♥ 3 | Cool mechanics and really nice graphics, great job!! |
| May 2 04:36:49 | 20m 55s | Under 30 Minutes | ♥ 2 | Impressive for a single person man, great job!! Very super-hot-esque |
| May 2 04:47:11 | 10m 22s | Dante's Delivery Service | ♥ 7 | LOVE THIS GAME!!! I genuinely had such a big doofy smile on my face when the pistol came up. Seriously great stuff. I feel like after the initial twist though, getting dragged back into the day sections is a bit of a bummer. It's exactly the same as the night sections, but without that extra shooting mechanic to keep things engaging. Giving the daytime sections their own special mechanic (Crazy taxi delivery routes?) would help remedy it a lot. Still though, this is the best game I've played so far from the jam. Awesome work!!! |
| May 2 05:14:15 | 27m 04s | Not a Bot! | ♥ 3 | Lovely little game with a lovely little guy :) |
| May 2 05:34:04 | 19m 49s | Porch Rats! | ♥ 1 | Really cute art and a fun game to boot! If I had to say anything, it'd probably be to let the progression ramp up more quickly - most people understand how tower defense games work, so it shouldn't be a problem. Great job though!! |
| May 3 01:49:16 | 20h 15m | Inbox Fool | ♥ 2 | Really fantastic work!!! It's incredible how all-around polished and complete this is, especially for 48 hours. I really only have nitpicks - the puzzles felt frustrating sometimes since I usually figured out what to do instantly, but took several tries to actually complete the puzzle because of the timing elements; the only one I actually had to stop and think on was the "Impossible Room" one. Also, following that, it would have been REALLY nice to be able to restart while in the dragging mode, since I usually could tell I didn't get the timing right but still had to drag the cursor somewhere in order to be able to restart. Still, these are relatively minor things for an incredible entry. Awesome job!!! |
| May 3 01:53:29 | 4m 13s | Thirty Minutes Or Less | ♥ 3 | I love the phase changes (as does everyone else), it's a super creative way to keep an arcade schmup feeling really fresh. I do also agree that I would have loved the damages to be indicative of score, instead of a set amount every time. Still though, great job!!! |
| May 3 01:59:24 | 5m 55s | Dead-End Delivery | ♥ 1 | This game is absolutely DRIPPING with style - and that 80's lofi aesthetic is exactly the type of style that I love. Seriously, I don't know how you managed to get this much mileage out of 72 hours! And the competing elements of time and fuel add a really nice tension to what otherwise could have been a pretty rudimentary A-to-B type game. I do wish there was a bit more I could do driving wise - the vehicle is a bit hard to control and doesn't flow like I would like it to - but that's a smaller nitpick on an otherwise incredible game. Fantastic job!! Also - take that "aspiring" out of your profile, own what you are :) |
| May 3 02:13:07 | 13m 43s | Wrong address | ♥ 1 | I've gotten all S ranks on Hotline Miami 2 and I've FC'd Dead Ahead more times than I can count - even though I haven't touched it in years, it was crazy how quickly all those reflexes came back once I booted up your game :) That all being said, I'm not super sure about the decision to give everyone health - it may have been done as an attempt to make the experience easier, but as someone who's played a TON of Hotline Miami, it actually made it way harder! The increased TTK meant that I couldn't play nearly as fast as I'm used to and had to un-learn a lot of habits over the course of 15 minutes. It feels like the only real way to avoid taking damage is by playing really carefully, which messes with the flow-state that I play HM for. Granted, I'm comparing two different games - these are just my own biases leaking in. It was a really great experience over all and super well done to boot! |
| May 3 02:25:09 | 12m 02s | Return To Sender | ♥ 1 | Papers please but cuter - great job :) I agree that it felt really satisfying to learn the products over time, though I will say it did get a LOT easier once I realized that I only had to mark one incorrect aspect instead of all of them! Never really did figure out all the parts of the game cartridge, though - and maybe it was just my tired brain, but it took me a minute to realize you had to click on it to see the back. Still though, really awesome game - fantastic work!! |
| May 3 02:34:05 | 8m 56s | "I Do Extra Good!" | ♥ 2 | I usually don't like overly-physicsy-systemy-controlly-gamey-games, but this one was actually a lot of fun! Maybe it was my rhythm game inclinations leaking through, who knows. Definitely the best MUSIC in the jam so far, seriously - an I appreciate seeing another unabashed use of :3 great job ya'll!! |
| May 3 02:43:00 | 8m 55s | Special Delivery | ♥ 1 | Really fantastic little game, simple concept executed really well! I would've liked to see a bit more mixing of the elements, especially those little throwing robots which I feel didn't get enough time to shine. I could almost imagine a scenario where you'd have throwing robot throw into a fan that pushes the box back to another robot one level up :) Awesome job! |
| May 3 02:58:33 | 15m 33s | Project Spirit | ♥ 3 | Really cool game! Though I was a little bummed that after writing a pretty heartfelt letter to my dog, I couldn't find anything but spam when delivering. Oh well - that's not on you, mean people will ruin anything if you give them the chance. Great job nonetheless :) |
| May 3 03:15:45 | 17m 12s | Buccaneer Mail co. | ♥ 3 | Really liked this art, especially how animated the character was! The controls were a bit stick-y, but it wasn't that much of a problem - good job :) |
| May 3 03:21:05 | 5m 20s | Rail Blazer | ♥ 2 | Great game - though I did manage to softlock myself with Sheep :) |
| May 3 03:32:52 | 11m 47s | Slime Delivery Service | ♥ 1 | Cute game! I like the puzzle mechanics that came out of splitting the characters up - though I did manage to do that last one with only one slime, haha |
| May 3 03:41:33 | 8m 41s | NICE DELIVERY INC! | ♥ 1 | Love speedrunning games, so I was stoked when I realized what this was!! Really cool game, great job! |
| May 3 03:54:32 | 12m 59s | Groove 'n' Goods | ♥ 3 | Cool game, love the graphics and music especially! I feel like once you get enough of a nest egg to reliably buy coke, though, there's not much reason to do anything else since it gives you so much return on investment. Still, great job! |
| May 3 04:11:41 | 17m 09s | Wasabi Whiskers | ♥ 3 | This game is totally fantastic, I love everything about it - the atmosphere, the music, the art, the puzzle design, it's all really well done and cohesive! Fantastic work all around, one of the best games in the jam for sure! |
| May 3 04:33:12 | 21m 31s | the postBIRB | ♥ 3 | Congrats on your first game jam! The bird controls are actually pretty fun, once I got used to it I really liked just zooming around. Great job! |
| May 3 04:36:35 | 3m 23s | Alien Elevator | ♥ 1 | Fun & unique little puzzler - I didn't quite figure out the use case for that top floor but I had fun nonetheless, great job! |
| May 3 04:42:00 | 5m 25s | Next Day Delivery | ♥ 1 | Fun little game - though I feel like I didn't really understand how to use the package recoil :P Still, good job!! |
| May 3 04:47:02 | 5m 02s | Mech Express | ♥ 1 | cat drones unite Really fun & interesting game!! I like the gameplay that being able to move your towers around in real-time affords. Great job!! |
| May 4 00:14:05 | 19h 27m | Air Delivery | ♥ 1 | Really cute game! The backtracking was a little harsh at times, but I guess I shouldn't complain too much for what's otherwise a really solid project. Great job! |
| May 4 00:19:05 | 5m 00s | Kittens: A Tale of Yarn and Woe | ♥ 1 | Definitely one of the most fun "Deliver the thing" games - I really enjoyed knocking the ball around, the physics felt surprisingly good and the effects were really satisfying. Great job!! |
| May 4 00:24:14 | 5m 09s | The Snack Shack | ♥ 1 | Really great vibes - I think allowing the player to mess up orders would do wonders to make it more involved, but I enjoyed serving up orders nonetheless. Good job!!! |
| May 4 00:30:03 | 5m 49s | Mira-sol | ♥ 2 | Super simple, super fun, and super stylized - Really, really fantastic job with this. It gets really hectic pretty fast, but whether or not that's a good or bad thing is up to your tastes. Definitely one of the best games of the jam! |
| May 4 00:35:56 | 5m 53s | Terminal Mayhem | ♥ 1 | Really cool concept, but I agree about it being really hard :( It took me a second to realize that the boxes were supposed to be going to different cities, but once I did, I guess I never really understood how to make that happen. The boxes just come out way to fast to be able to react to them, especially since you need to mouse over them to actually see where they're supposed to go, by which point they're probably already well on their way! If you continued this, I'd really start with color-coding the boxes so that you can tell at a quick glance where they're supposed to go. Still, good job on the game! |
| May 4 00:40:55 | 4m 59s | PARCEL PUNISHER | ♥ 0 | This is a fantastic submission, I love the visual style and there's a lot of juicy feedback and satisfying gameplay! Really great job, seriously! |
| May 4 00:45:16 | 4m 21s | Diner Dash | ♥ 1 | Surprising how giving you multiple characters makes sliding puzzles way more fun! At first I was kinda overwhelmed, but once I figured out I could swap my food between waiters everything sorta fell into place and became super satisfying. Great job :) |
| May 4 01:14:52 | 29m 36s | Out For Delivery | ♥ 1 | Really cute graphics, style, and sound - though I feel like I got kinda lost and didn't fully understand what to do or if the game ended. Still, I had a fun time nonetheless :) |
| May 4 01:26:24 | 11m 32s | Mushroom Mail | ♥ 2 | Such an adorable game, I really loved all the art and the storybook style. The jump was a little weird and I never could figure out how far it was going to send me, though. That being said, you guys did a great job overall! |
| May 4 01:32:46 | 6m 22s | Good Vibe Delivery | ♥ 3 | Really great controls, and satisfying level design. Fantastic job!! My only real feedback is I wish the obstacles were more immediately discernable from the background - I couldn't tell that the fences were supposed to be spikes. But that's a minor thing - this is a really great game! |
| May 4 01:50:25 | 17m 39s | Garçon! | ♥ 1 | Really fantastic (and super cute!) graphics, both 3D and 2D! The controller is a bit rough around the edges but it seems like you guys were trying to do a lot, and it's surprisingly fun nonetheless - I just wish I could see what the names on the letters were after I pick them up, haha. Great job!! |
| May 4 01:58:18 | 7m 53s | T.I.M.E | ♥ 4 | Really cute game and really great soundtrack, loved the atmosphere! It was a bit weird to get reduced back down to the wind spell at the end - powering down instead of up - but that's a small thing. Great job ya'll :) |
| May 4 02:03:13 | 4m 55s | Catch it | ♥ 1 | Really cute concept, and super cute art too - love the wario ware style! Great job! |
| May 4 02:13:24 | 10m 11s | Rain On Their Parade! | ♥ 3 | Extremely cute art and I loved the progression of mechanics as time went on. Great job!!! |
| May 4 03:48:40 | 1h 35m | Superstar Surgeon: a Sensitive Subject | ♥ 2 | This one was really clever and I loved the dialogue from both the "Good" and "Bad" routes, super well done overall :) |
| May 4 03:55:49 | 7m 09s | Eternal delivery | ♥ 0 | Pretty neat little game, though throwing the packages bugged out sometimes. Still, good job! |
| May 4 04:19:08 | 23m 19s | Hive | ♥ 1 | Really cute game - I would've liked something like a sound indication when you collected pollen because I couldn't tell that I was actually doing it the first time around, haha. That being said, really great job!! |
| May 4 04:24:25 | 5m 17s | Last Stand Delivery | ♥ 5 | Really neat take on the pushing block genre; I liked the added twist of adding powerups to the monsters. Great job! |
| May 4 04:28:49 | 4m 24s | The Silver Fleet | ♥ 1 | Pretty charming little infinite runner with cute graphics - great job!! I don't fully know what "Luck" does though - a better explanation would have helped. Still, good game nonetheless :) |
| May 4 04:33:28 | 4m 39s | The Night Witches | ♥ 4 | Simple gameplay and a cool stylistic layer over top, love it. Great job! |
| May 4 04:37:27 | 3m 59s | Machine Meltdown | ♥ 1 | Really great looking game - though I wish I didn't have to attack in the direction I was moving, that would have made things a lot easier ;P Still, really simple and really well done - great job!! |
| May 4 04:44:07 | 6m 40s | Bundle Beeline | ♥ 2 | Holy moly I love this entry. The art is so cute and everything is so polished - seriously, this is super impressive stuff!! I do wish the penalty for throwing packages wasn't so harsh though - being able to toss things in different directions without them breaking would really spice the game up with some more interesting routing options. Maybe that's just my Payday bag-chaining instincts failing me, though. Either way, great work!! |
| May 4 04:51:09 | 7m 02s | Debbie's Diner Derby | ♥ 1 | Super lovely controls and fantastic visuals & music. Really can't find any complaints - super well done :) |
| May 4 04:57:03 | 5m 54s | Neiro | ♥ 2 | Really liked the vibes, even if I didn't quite 'get' the gameplay. Good job :) |
| May 5 00:15:04 | 19h 18m | A$AP Boxy | ♥ 1 | Really fun concept and cool puzzles! You get a lot of mileage out of the concept and use it in interesting ways. Great job! |
| May 5 00:24:31 | 9m 27s | Alien Midwife | ♥ 1 | Cool game - gets hectic quickly with all the eggs. I do wish there was a pause button, but I understand that that may feel a little against the spirit :) |
| May 5 00:37:21 | 12m 50s | FISH FRESH delivery | ♥ 2 | Really cute puzzler with a super cute style! Maybe it's just because I've played a lot of Flow, but I wish the puzzles were a bit more difficult - I solved most of them at a glance. Still, really well done overall! |
| May 5 00:44:14 | 6m 53s | Jiji: The Skateboarding Postcat | ♥ 1 | Really cute game! I would die for jiji. I do wish everything was just a bit faster though - respawning, moving, level transitions, etc. Still, great job! |
| May 5 00:49:53 | 5m 39s | Battery Boys | ♥ 1 | Cute game, but you were right about spacebar hurting your hands - I had to stop playing after the first level because all the spamming was triggering my carpal tunnel xD Still, great job! |
| May 5 00:58:38 | 8m 45s | Pizza Time | ♥ 2 | Cool puzzle game, I've seen stuff like it in the past but the extra tiles / pickups really do a lot to keep it feeling fresh. Great job!! |
| May 5 01:08:23 | 9m 45s | Bullet Worm | ♥ 2 | Really cute game! After realizing my tail couldn't collide with black squares, I didn't suuuper understand what the tension is with holding more pieces at once - maybe go classic snake and have some self-collision? Either way, really simple and fun game, very well done!! |
| May 5 01:16:23 | 8m 00s | Delivery Dungeon | ♥ 1 | Cool game! I wish you started off a little bit more powerful at a base level, though - things are pretty sluggish until you get that first initial burst of gold. Still, it was a pretty neat little twinstick shooter - great job! |
| May 5 01:22:01 | 5m 38s | Lil' Red Witch | ♥ 2 | Really cute game and well done! But something I was doing with the movement keys kept freaking out the character controller and launching me in weird directions haha. Still managed to spread love and kindness throughout the town despite it, though! Great job :) |
| May 5 01:25:17 | 3m 16s | Treats Inbound | ♥ 1 | That was... surreal. But in a way I really got a kick out of, haha. Great job!! |
| May 5 01:47:37 | 22m 20s | Death Delivery | ♥ 2 | Really cool game, though some more targets would help make the investigations more engaging. Still though, really great concept and very well done! |
| May 5 01:52:37 | 5m 00s | Tracks 'n Bandits: Haulin' Cargo | ♥ 2 | Pretty cute game! I feel like I reached the end, but I couldn't tell - Train just kept moving with no cargo and I couldn't control it at some point. But nonetheless, it was pretty fun and well done overall. Good job! |
| May 5 01:56:11 | 3m 34s | Parcel Problem | ♥ 1 | Pretty cool, and great music to boot :) |
| May 5 02:00:38 | 4m 27s | Rogue 'n Royal | ♥ 1 | Pretty great game - you could have just stopped at the minigame, but I love the extra mile of the items & interactions. Great job! |
| May 5 02:12:20 | 11m 42s | Hell'o-Cargo | ♥ 5 | Super great, well-polished game! Not a lot of complaints, other than the throwing being a little finnicky, but that's super minor - great job overall! |
| May 5 02:16:54 | 4m 34s | IceCream Van | ♥ 0 | Really cute game! All the elements - pixel art, sound, polish - really come together to make this feel like a complete package despite the small size. Great job!! |
| May 5 02:26:51 | 9m 57s | Package Panik | ♥ 5 | Really cute management game! It's crazy how much you guys got done in such a short timespan, seriously fantastic work. I'm gonna leave it running in the BG while playing other entries and see how much cash I can rack up. Great job!!! |
| May 5 02:33:48 | 6m 57s | You Hate Mail | ♥ 1 | Really great entry, love the style and humor and the game was surprisingly intense despite the simple premise. Great job!! |
| May 5 02:43:03 | 9m 15s | Grav Garb | ♥ 5 | strap in we goin moonrat mode boys |
| May 5 02:48:35 | 5m 32s | Mailman Madness | ♥ 1 | Really fun game! Couldn't ever figure out a way to reliably dodge those dogs, though - but maybe that's the point, being a mailman and all. Great job! |
| May 5 02:51:27 | 2m 52s | Tentacle Delivery | ♥ 1 | Cute game! Though I had to aim a little bit off from the target to hit stuff - think some more tuning may be required there. Still, good job :) |
| May 5 02:58:34 | 7m 07s | oh no, you are the package | ♥ 0 | Really fantastic game and super well polished! I feel like I never really understood the grapple, but that just may be me being stupid. The art was super well done and had an awesome style. Fantastic job!!! |
| May 5 03:08:03 | 9m 29s | Goblin! Rescue! Squad! | ♥ 0 | Really cute game and SUPER cute goblins, I would die for them. The pickup controls were a little weird at times - sometimes I could pick up the ball, sometimes I couldn't - but I still made it through and rescued all the goblins. Great job :) |
| May 5 03:11:40 | 3m 37s | Manucci's Pizza Hunt | ♥ 2 | Really great game, complete package, super well done with great music. Not a lot of complaints here - great job ya'll! |
| May 5 03:16:53 | 5m 13s | First Delivery | ♥ 2 | The flying was weird at first, but I actually got used to it after a while. Congrats on shipping a game jam game - you did great! |
| May 6 21:33:59 | 42h 17m | Logisticlaw | ♥ 1 | Great game, very polished for a jam as well and super cute art! I had a similar problem with the boxes though haha, some of them didn't seem to register even when I placed them in the truck (or maybe its just more precise than I thought it was?) Still, really great game, fantastic work! |
