what a game, I mean, genius idea. But quite hard actually! It could probably use another additional way than turning to compensate for the imbalance (mash a button or something like that)

snorkelhead 2021-10-04 21:31

Fantastic concept and execution. Balancing while turning does feel impossible but I had fun failing

yaroslav-kravtsov 2021-10-04 21:43

Thank you for allowing to play no matter how many fails I did. Because I did them a lot :ะพ)

I have had a good time playing it, very funny haha, also visually it is very cool. And the idea is super original.

wooshdude 2021-10-05 00:37

great graphics, but keeping those pizzas on your back is hard! being able to lean the handsom pizza boy would be a great addition!

ollieoa 2021-10-05 03:15

Haha a silly concept, but very fun! Definitely a bit too hard to play, though, in that turning is very unforgiving. Sound and graphics were great for a short turnaround!

julia-zhu 2021-10-05 04:51

OMG I love the pizza shop logo it is HILARIOUS. it's also a very visually appealing game :smile: (we'll not talk about how much I sucked at the game)

wang-tianliang 2021-10-05 04:52

Is there a way keeping pizzas on my back?However, that is a good idea and i have fun

malte-hedenstrom 2021-10-05 06:17

So fun and so creative! Who would have thought that carrying pizzas would be so fun

codeer 2021-10-05 08:35

Really fun game and great graphics! Definitely gets challenging quite quickly, had a lot of fun playing!

timur-bahadir 2021-10-05 09:54

Really funny idea. But also really difficult! ^^

eretol 2021-10-05 13:16

a weird idea that kinda works. should maybe needs som qwop ish controls to make it really good.

randomphantom 2021-10-05 15:16

The controls are really hard to make sense of (hence the theme I guess). The graphics in this game are really popping though!

blacksheepza 2021-10-05 20:24

I had a good laugh playing this game! It was quite a challenge balancing all those pizzas but I prevailed (after many falls!) Well done on completing your game!

Super fun game! Re-playability is through the roof!

arken 2021-10-06 06:48

Good game. Although it's hard to keep balence, I find the tips is rhythm of "A" and "D" keys. And when I successfully get one score, the position of pizza will reset. I love this design!

kobrasadetin 2021-10-06 11:25

The graphics are really good, even the start menu makes you really excited to try the game.

Awesome take on the unstable theme. Beautiful game, smooth and round, unique idea, vivid visuals, beautiful menu, easy to understand, hard to master. PIZZA!

Played it for half an hour straight.

Great Work Guys.

It was really fun ! Congratulations

zacharypinkham 2021-10-07 17:18

Very cool! I like the visuals and the concept is great, but I do feel like I was little TOO at the mercy of the pizza boxes in later levels, to the point where sometimes my only choice was to run around in a circle and not deliver it anywhere. But I still had a lovely time!

chris-hay 2021-10-08 00:15

This is kind of how it feels to back up a truck with a trailer - you need to go in the opposite direction a bit first. I loved that the music lined up with the galloping! Double points for the "unstable" theme on this one.

jesusonwheels 2021-10-08 03:38

Favorite game of the jam so far!!! It's pizza horse, what can you say. So awesome, I loved developing strategies, like turning into the goal to reset my pizza stack/

yikescloud 2021-10-10 11:59

Very nice game fit the jam's unstable theme! Both of us make a pizza game haha! Physics is great but I think still a little bit hard to keep balance and move towards the target same time. Hope I can control the horse body tilt to keep pizza balance. Good job!

sagan-rayner 2021-10-10 19:06

Perfectly fits the unstable theme. Really hard if you're trying to avoid falls. I think I spent more time steering into a wall trying to avoid falling than it would have taken to fall and keep going.

cookie-dragon 2021-10-10 23:01

Pizza HORSE!

rookrules 2021-10-11 00:51

USE THAT LEAN!

sharks 2021-10-12 00:26

I absolutely adore horses so maybe I was a bit biased :) Love the low poly art style especially all the cute little people waving there hands and of course I absolutely love the horse! Gameplay wise I would've loved to see more nuance, ways to re-orient yourself eg slow down or use physics objects around you like buildings to push the pizzas back in place since it seems like you can't really turn whatsoever without dropping them so unless there is some amount of planning expected I can't see how this is really skill based or possible without fails. Also we are not given an overview of the map either so planning is not possible either way without having played before/knowing pizza placements. Either way super cute game I loved it! <3

cozygamepals 2021-10-12 16:52

Haha, what a silly entry. Bonus points for multiple interpretations of 'unstable.' I love that I was randomly deciding that some people don't get their pizzas, haha. Great work!

burnoutauge 2021-10-15 16:35

Very cook and fune game /fun funny pony)!

blushingcrow 2021-10-16 01:51

The visuals were amazing and it's a lot of silly fun (the wacko physics certainly didn't hurt) - controls gave me a bit of difficulty, but I feel that's part of the aesthetic to the game (why would delivering stacks of pizzas as a pony be easy, after all?)

chairshot-games 2021-10-16 04:39

What a game! Super fun and needs a lot of strategy. I love the art and music. The game does a good job of teaching you as you go. Lots of great little details (the pizza falling out of the box, ect) that make for a great vibe. Only thing I would recommend is a horse falling-down animation. Great job!

paulsams 2021-10-16 10:48

Well, I played... But you know, some additional control is missing... Otherwise, at high levels, you still have to make mistakes to deliver all the pizzas. This will confuse those same perfectionists, heh). The game is, in principle, fun, but it feels very unfinished and unintuitive. But since there were only two of you, it's still cool!

electric-bonfire 2021-10-17 15:42

Hello, fellow pun-stable jammer! I love that you went for both serious and pun-intentional meanings of the theme, and the game ended up being super fun on its own - a nice spin on the crazy taxi genre and with some added strategy given by the pizzas getting reset at each checkpoint. Awesome, awesome stuff!

dgspitzer 2021-10-18 01:56

Everybody want to have a handsome delivery horse, cause why not!

Finished all levels without a single fail~ 3634564356.jpg

junebug 2021-10-18 13:39

@dgspitzer Impressive!!!

schwede 2021-10-18 18:59

Yeah sure, I saw yesterday a horse on the street deliver a pizza. What a crazy idea! This is really out of the box. Good job!

raphiell 2021-10-21 02:36

Great use of the theme, and +1 for the inclusion of horses. Had a good laugh. Well done!
