Slapping the other penguins with a newspaper is weirdly fun.

@markymark on shit I optioned out the ratings I want ppl to voted and left the one I don't want (no Audio in game). Please come back to update the rating when you see this msg :cry: thanks And glad you enjoyed the game!

markymark 2022-04-04 20:58

KK I updated it :)

Great interpretation of the theme! Super fun take and an A+ in humor

This is so chaotic and fun, I love the animations and how fast everything goes! It was super fun figuring out the best order to get everything done in, great job!

Awesome game. The running animation was very funny.

eggshelldog 2022-04-05 01:27

Fun Fact: no offense but the game name Delay No More's pronunciation is basically mother fucker in Cantonese

szym 2022-04-05 13:17

Nice game ! the running animation was hillarious <3

I had issues with my cursor not locking to the window escaping to my other monitors, but other than that, fun little experience.

The game has some real Postal 2 vibe to it with the queues :D

Very fun, good boss breakfast using the dog btw :)

peachtreeoath 2022-04-05 19:29

I never realized the pun in the title despite knowing Cantonese, that's a clever one :)

The effort you put into the running around and attacking animations went a long way. Since there isn't a terrible amount of content, having those things be in the core more than made up for it. Like others said, it was fun to just run around and smack things around. The penguin eyes turning into X's in particular made that action 3x more entertaining.

On my 1st winning playthrough, I ended up smacking my boss which was a mistake. When trying to get back to where I was, I kept running into cars and dying haha. Eventually I played it patiently and correctly and got the win. Neat game!

FYI the game doesn't play well on ultrawide monitors. It was still playable though even if I couldn't see my items.

The penguin is sooo cute! I love the famous Cantonese pun, and overall the gaming experience is soooo humous! I love the part that I could choose to stay on bed at the start of the game, which is basically my ideal life in my next 20 years (no its not lmao)

eggshelldog 2022-04-06 15:07

@antsa yea Postal, the classic @peachtreeoath sorry for both of you about the screen issue, and thanks for pointing them out so I can have a fix! I think the Cantonese pun is only known by Hong Kong ppl and some of the Chinese, I just make it for fun :joy:

Loved the animations! Hilarious and fun to play.

shigor 2022-04-08 12:30

Yeah, got the postal vibes too :)

uinelj 2022-04-09 11:49

Really fun to play! You managed to create a living mini world and that is great!

frogravity 2022-04-09 18:28

Really nice game! I loved all the animations, and the world was generally very fun to just wander around in and cause chaos. The game was also really funny and unexpected. I missed the controls in the game page and it took me a long time to figure them out, but otherwise, great entry!

wouter52 2022-04-09 18:36

Fun game! I laughed a lot! Alhough I could not really figure out how to create a traffic jam without kicking the bucket ^^" Beating up those pinguins with a newspaper is pretty funny! Not sure what that says about me as a person :laughing:

Graphics are fun and vibrant, the game could use some music though

Edit: on the screenshot above I saw what to do with trafic, now I kept my job, thanks!

kamuniaft 2022-04-13 19:14

Amazing. It's even hard to believe it's a compo-format game :) There is really a lot of content and ways in this sandbox. Opened 4\7 endings and had a lot of fun! P.S. Descriptions gifs helps me to find some new ways too :)

zitao-ye 2022-04-16 08:28

Funny game! curious with the perfect ending!

eggshelldog 2022-04-16 08:54

Thanks all for playing and exploring it. So glad to know ppl are trying to find the ending of my game. Just for you guys reference. Here are the 7 ending:

* Go to sleep Ending * Accident/Suicide Ending * No Boss = No Delay Ending * Get Fired Ending (Get to work after 100s) * Salary Deduction Ending (Get to work within 100s without finishing all excuse todo) * With Good Excuse Ending (Get to work within 100s and all excuse todo are done) * if no life is hurt - Perfect Ending * otherwise - Good Ending

Lol, I loved this!!

First of all, PEEEENGUINS. Gotta try this out (check out the name of our "game studio" and you'll understand ;D)

I love the penguin meshes, the boss looks hilarious and the run animation is straight up hysterical. Good job on that. The penguins also looked really cute!

The old dude reminded of the Penguins of Madagascar episode where Private is about to be sent to the moon, lol.

I really like the variety of all the actions and the added difficulty of the street :)

One question: did I solve the last quest correctly? ^^

Because how else would I do that? Throw something on the street? Okay don't tell me, I wanna figure it out myself, I just noticed there's multiple endings!! haha!! This gives me Untitled goose game vibes, I love it!

Grea job guys :)

eggshelldog 2022-04-17 03:53

@angiemon oh fat penguins :joy: First of all thanks for playing my game seriously! I planned to allow player to throw stuff/item/animal to the street but I don't have enough time to implement that mechanism. Having said that, you can still push/punch thing/pets to the street and it can create traffic jam! and yea of course it is still a correct way to solve the task, but at what cost :joy:
