Good looking game with fun writing, the delivery messages made me smile a lot. I felt the steering was clunky for me (probably because i'm a terrible driver). Overall: Good work dude!

Nice graphics and cool sounds! I found the game enjoyable especially with the mood you created! The controls worked well but the steering was a bit hard to use especially when you got stuck on something. Good job overall!

Fun game. A bit strange on the steering and it would be nice to bounce off or slide along a building instead of coming to an instant stop. Nicely done.

Wow! I got fun in this game, nice music, graphics, however the driving process is unpredictable, and wage. In general, you have made a great job!

I like the isometric style of graphics, the detail of the "back up" beeps, and the random delivery items to add a little bit of variety. The controls were a bit tricky to get right, and little more variety in the map would have been nice. But otherwise, nice work :)

Really good looking game, looks very polished and runs very smoothly. It was hard to steer at first but I got the hang of it pretty quickly!

Nice job, graphics were very appealing and combined with the music created a satisfying atmosphere. Liked the idea of the wormholes but felt there could've been more to fit with the theme better, or have transported you to more 'loop-like' locations. Agree with other commenters that the steering was a bit strange and hard to wrap my head around, but still really enjoyed the challenge. Well done

Really enjoyed this game! Had the occasional worm hole surprise me because it would appear in my path or behind a building, which would make me laugh. Took me a bit to get a hang of the controls with the keyboard, but eventually got there. This game had a "happy feel" to it, and I'm always a big fan of that.

Would love to see this game have multiple rounds where your costs get removed from your day, and you can buy upgrades for your vehicle or items to use.

Great job on this game! The steering was really hard to get a hold of, I think because it happened in 8 sharp angles instead of a smooth rotation, and also because the edge of the buildings were too easy to get stuck on (Would have been good if you slid more along the side of buildings, or if reversing happened faster).

That said, I really enjoyed the game and found there was a ton of charm in it. The text is funny, the graphics are very clean and look good, and the idea is great.

Good graphics and music, but the controls are not that great

The graphics are amazing, also the music is good. Only downside of the game are the controls, the car is a bit hard to control.

I'm being an echo of everyone else here but, the graphics are really cool as well as the loopey part of it. The controls however are quite hard, especially at greater speeds. And then when you crash, you're stuck for quite the bit.

There were mini noticings like how falling in water; it did it's best putting you back on land, or sometimes getting stuck in the portal loops. But the slowing down of the grass and money features do show how much work went into this game. Thank you for making.

A very cool game! A lot of great UX touches, the minimap with the drop zones, the transparent circle when the car is behind buildings, the different driving speeds on different surfaces, the little beeps when backing up, the packages neatly following your car, great stuff. The controls are way too sensitive, which makes it a bit annoying to actually play, but it seems like a limitation of the 8(?)-directional movement. All in all, a very polished entry, congrats!

I immediately recognized the Kenney buildings asset pack you used, I used the same pack for my first-ever LD entry back for LD44. You guys have done the great pack more justice :)
