May 1 16:34:41 Rhino Express ♥ 2 Really great and polished puzzler! Rhino mechanics made sense and there was just enough content. If I had to say anything, returning to the overworld map between each level and breaking up the gameplay might be unnecessary. It's nice and impressive that it's there though, I'd just make the return to it optional. Nice!
May 1 16:53:30 18m 49s Memory fun ♥ 3 Separating the storks was brutal πŸ˜…. Has some cute art and I like the cozy acoustic sounds. Not too much more to say, it's a simple memory game.
May 1 17:15:32 22m 02s Treats Inbound ♥ 1 So dramatic πŸ˜‚. Definitely made me smile. Pretty cool low poly graphics and I like the switch from the dramatic music when going low for the pet.
May 1 17:50:39 35m 07s Strange Zoo ♥ 1 Damn, that was trippy. Wasn't sure if there was anything else to do except explore but after reading a bit on the page I stuck around a bit more and things start to progress. Controls are a bit janky but it somehow works with the rest of the weird unnerving aestetic, sound and where the game goes. I made it to the end..I think.. Cool!
May 1 18:37:57 47m 18s Packontra ♥ 1 Lol, a lot of love went into that opening scene. Are the dogs supposed to hurt you(didn't seem like it)? Or are they just cannon fodderπŸ˜…? Not sure if the packages could use an arrow as well, but maybe it's part of the challenge to try and find them.
May 1 19:06:31 28m 34s Delivery Witch ♥ 2 Congrats on your first jam! Got a neat little base for something which is better than giving up. Can definitely be expanded on. I really struggled for a while trying to get back up to get the last box. I always came up a but short in height. I finally managed to do it by stacking my first 2 boxes, standing on them and they gave me just enough to reach the high cliff. Felt pretty neat even if not intended πŸ˜….
May 1 19:22:01 15m 30s Morse Deliverer ♥ 1 Interesting take! The fact that you can generate a level with just a string is really neat!
May 1 20:18:26 56m 25s Ultimate Pigeon Post ♥ 3 That's some juicy pigeon combat! Graphics and sound are on point! Felt pretty satisfying smacking things around although maybe a bit unruly given how over the top the moves are. That's not necessarily a bad thing but it can get a bit button mashy. It was actually pretty interesting when the powers where taken away and I couldn't button mash slaughter through the enemies (even though that's fun too). I guess it's about finding that balance between satisfying smackdown and more thoughtful, controlled movement.
May 1 21:05:12 46m 46s Hound Dog Delivery ♥ 1 Cute graphics! Could use some cute music to match. A bit short but you get the gist of it. Pretty fun to race the box even if it took me quite a few triesπŸ˜…!
May 1 21:36:43 31m 31s City Runners ♥ 0 Finally, another "strand type game"... Jokes aside though, this was more involved than I initially thought. Upgrades and gadgets, traveling to unknown lands. I honestly stopped caring about deliveries after a while and just tried to see how far away I could travel.
May 1 22:41:52 1h 05m Pet Delivery ♥ 1 Cute! Damn it gets hard once the trajectory is gone though. Maybe gradually shortening it so it doesn't go all the way (which is too easy) would eas you into it more while still adding some challenge. Sfx are great!
May 1 23:06:01 24m 09s Airborne Deliveries ♥ 1 That was really fun with some clever platformer challenges. Played it for quite a while but went somewhere I wasn't supposed to and ended up in the endless void πŸ˜….
May 1 23:15:48 9m 47s Baby Printer ♥ 1 I finally know how babies are made. Love the sound effects! Gets overwhelming pretty quickly though. πŸ˜…
May 1 23:33:48 18m 00s Thats So Punny ♥ 1 Nice take on the theme! Even with the minimalistic art it feels super snappy and polished with the animations, text pop up and sound. It always did seem obvious what the correct punchline was but not sure how to solve that. Perhaps having the non answers at least make a correct sentence, but this being a jam and the sheer amount of jokes that would be a lot πŸ˜….
May 2 00:17:01 43m 13s Souls on Board: The Styx Delivery Service ♥ 2 Really nice take on the theme! Super atmospheric and moody sounds, I especially liked the choir coming in after a delivery. Just like rowing a real boat it can get frustrating and sadly I always managed to get stuck against walls eventually with seemingly no way out since you can't really back up.
May 2 00:41:53 24m 52s Deliver Unto Dusk ♥ 2 Nice! The presentation has a lot of charm to it. The little cutscenes, going through the week. I like the extra conditions to add some variation to the missions even when they repeat.
May 2 09:10:34 8h 28m Paddy's Portage ♥ 2 Great stuff! Plays good, looks good, sounds good (loved that jazzy track!). Nothing groundbreaking but super solid puzzle platformer.
May 2 12:25:38 3h 15m Delivery Sim ♥ 0 There are some interesting ideas here, like figuring out what the objects do. Most issues I have with it has been brought up by others. Mainly, any goal outside of delivering to the green square on the first floor is unclear.
May 2 12:57:10 31m 32s Pizza Slingshot ♥ 2 Had really fun with this! I stopped at level 16 but I liked that it kept adding mechanics and it got pretty clever. Took me a while to figure out you could switch which pizza to use πŸ˜…. Nice polished art and sound too and a fair bit of content!
May 2 13:34:28 37m 18s Traz Logo ♥ 1 Really nice physics game fitting with the theme! Objects can get stuck in walls but it's no biggie since there is a reset button and levels aren't too long. Art and sound is polished too.
May 2 14:06:42 32m 14s Snail Mail ♥ 6 Cute! Interesting take on a find the path game making the other snail make a path traversable again (I like the reason πŸ˜‚). Song was great too!
May 2 14:21:47 15m 05s Space Express ♥ 2 Pretty fun but maybe a bit unforgiving having to start over each death. I wanted to see more but never made it too far πŸ˜…. Loved the music!
May 2 14:37:11 15m 24s Special Delivery ♥ 1 Brilliant as usual! The art, sound, level design, all top notch and a nice take on the theme! This will be the postal service of our A.I overlords.
May 2 16:20:41 1h 43m Package to Mr. Moon ♥ 1 Took me a while before I realized you could move while gliding (that's what I get for not reading) πŸ˜…. Definitely made things easier. I like the art style, the moon looked really cool. Some chill music or ambient background sound would've been nice. Otherwise the sound was good and everything had audio feedback.
May 2 17:03:20 42m 39s Ancient DeliveROARier ♥ 0 I made it on my second playthrough because the hazards are always the same, first one was up to chance though. Pretty short but has some nice art and humor. Also you can buy a plumbus.
May 2 17:28:11 24m 51s Winter Factory ♥ 1 All these rules for material that ends up in the trash anyway πŸ˜…. Nice take on the theme with fitting art and sounds and a nice progression of challenge with adding on the rules.
May 2 17:48:23 20m 12s Very Good Happy Joy Play 3000 ♥ 3 I got stuck in the wall but the rap helped me out just in time πŸ‘
May 2 18:34:58 46m 35s Deliverz ♥ 2 Damn that was really nostalgic, I used to play the original GTA way back. Really captured that old feel with the art, city simulation and missions and even added some mayhem at the end.
May 2 19:53:41 1h 18m Ultimate Package ♥ 4 It's definitely a bit janky but I enjoyed it nonetheless, a lot thanks to the music which really got me hyped up.
May 2 23:40:23 3h 46m Space Cannon Delivery Service ♥ 1 I feel like I see these planet/gravity games almost every LD but I always find them fun. This one Feels pretty good. I like how even failed boxes stay on a planet and may even be pushed into the goal by other boxes like you're playing cosmic pool. I googled Beepbox btw and it seems like an excellent jam tool, especially if you're not a musician. I feel like many people don't even try to add music if they have no experience but I always appreciate when it's there.
