Essentially a point-and-click adventure in 3D.

Nice idea for a game, just needs some more polish. Good work!

Reminds me of the old school VR games from the late 90's. Nice job!

it was interesting to see what each character could do! I loved the butcher enjoying a steak in a park on his way home.

Good concept, if you ironed out the bugs you mention and added more characters this would be pretty good. I see how you used the theme but I'm not sure how well it fitted. Still, good concept.

I liked the idea behind it. I would definitely like to play a longer version of this, even though the game was bugging out a bit in the graphics department.

Cool idea, but very short & straight-forward as is. I'd love to see the version with the full story!

I woke up in a small city by the water. Before I knew it there was trouble. The mail main was in a bad way that ... dog had him corner but dogs love steak. I had a steak. The mailman was grateful but he needed to take some time to reflect on the incident. I knew I could help others but I was not ready for the business man. I really thought I was ready. Suddenly I am the mailman I knew it. "Whats this a package well I know what to do with this" I marched over to the postoffice. But wait. Who was I before I was a mail man? Theres no time for this. People need my help. Maybe this package could help the business man. Whoa! An axe. But who would send someone an Axe. I wood(zing). Suddenly something crazy was going down and I needed to get everyone where they needed to go. I went to the post office. Success. Now I am the business man. What do business man do? Business in an professional setting :D:D

I think moving between the different characters with different abilities is a cool mechanic. Could definitely see more happening with that.

I think you have wrote a good concept here. Helping people one after the other, changing characters via an overview map, etc. this is a nice touch. But I feel the game fail a bit to deliver the experience you initialy planned because of the gameplay and the overall confusing mechanics. Maybe you will work on that? At first I was skeptical regarding theme, but I had to acknowledge the fact that you actually made a game on only on screen...

Everything is glitchy and most of the assets look like placeholders, but somehow it's really engaging. Not often I get to play a game about helping people solve their problems. Also, "Press 'F' to destroy ALL THE TREES". This game is just inexplicably charming.

Good little experience. Well done

deathbysnail 2014-12-09 20:32

I love that this town has a "town businessman".

ace 2014-12-09 20:35

A really nice concept, though it would've been nice if you kept the top-down view visible at all times. That and some smooth transitions would've helped immensely with making it feel like a single screen.

Text messages kept drawing on top of eachother though, took me a while to realize it wanted me to press 'F' and not 'E'.

lxd1 2014-12-09 20:35

Its fun.

jellycakes 2014-12-09 20:44

Liked the idea, and the only problems I had were highlighted anyway by you. Great work

spartanicecream 2014-12-09 20:47

A sweet little 3D point and click. The graphics could use a bit of fresh paint but good work!

antworks 2014-12-09 20:49

I like the idea very much! If you add more characters and more complexity to the puzzles, it would definitely be an awesome game.

Fun little game with a great concept!

fergusontv_ld31 2014-12-12 14:23

Liked the concept, this was really nice.

chrismcmath 2014-12-18 08:17

What a great idea! Definitely worth iterating on- suggest moving to a 2d top down view while you work on the mechanics.

mohammad 2014-12-30 00:57

Good concept. I like the creativity and originality.
