I feel the controls are a bit janky, the camera kinda hits the edges of the screen if you go too far. I'm also a little confused as to what I'm doing while in the game, although the instructions (which I only found were there on the second playthrough) explained it well enough. Commendable effort!

The signage on the house is a good design to find the target location faster. Battle and delivery, fun gameplay!
It's hard to control and would also need a bit more feedback when shooting but nice game ! well done !
Interesting concept! The camera and controls feel pretty strange and I didn't really understand what to do (the wall of text scared me away from the instructions menu). Great job!

Agreed on the controls being a bit tough. I found that I kept rotating too quickly, so I was constantly missing targets and there was also some clipping. Maybe I'll have to try again with a controller. :) Otherwise, the graphical effects are cool and I think the music matches the mood of the game really well!
I think the controls are like an old school tank game. I didn't mind them too much! Maybe you can modify it so you turn with the arrow keys and press another button to accelerate. That would possibly fix a few issues with controls (in my opinion). But regardless, I liked it and loved the artwork :) Keep it up!!!
I like the concept but alas the controls were pretty tough to master. I loved the concepts. Blocks falling off the cart, the cart disintegrating into a bunch of parts, and the final block text was great.

I had a much better time playing on gamepad than with mouse and keyboard. I love the 'lore' of this one, it's hilarious that the humans who have been put out of work are trying to destroy me and I'm just merrily shooting them as I go and deliver packages!

Musik is fire, like the blocky art style, reminds of my childhood.

Ahhhh why are people firing at me?? :((( Controls are a bit janky and I like the concept but felt a bit chaotic with the 3D movement. Seemed to run quite slowly in my browser so when it finally sped up it was a bit of a shock and I didn't manage to complete any deliveries. The wall of text instructions were a bit of an eyesore so I didn't read all the way through.
Sorry about the "wall of text" instructions. We simply ran out of time to add a tutorial and wanted to make sure that answers to any how to play questions were available. Thanks for all the feedback!

Loved both music, sfx and art of the game, enjoyed a lot of the gameplay. Camera can be hard to control to some extent

I can see a lot of effort put into visuals, nice animations, camera sometimes feels out of controls, not bad!

@thegameoverguy You pretty much hit the nail on the head with what I was going for on controls. I was going for Mario 64 controls, but I think Tiny Tank had basically the same control scheme. I actually forgot Tiny Tank existed until you said old school tank game.

I actually got scared the first time I shot a woman and she screamed :smile: + skipped instructions but still easy to pick up and enjoy! I felt like I killed a little bit too much people for too little purpose but it was fun! GJ!

I WANT TO SMASH THEM WITH MY TITANIUM TORSO
Interesting idea, but the build is better ZIP than web. The player's camera is very uncomfortable when it goes down to the ground and hides somewhere behind the house from the player
hard to play but great concept
Smooth control although a bit glitchy sometimes. I liked the music and the simple but effectful graphics!
nice little game. Not a huge fan of the camera controls, seems to get stuck when going from like -180 to 180 degrees so have to turn around the other way.
