This is probably one of my favorite games so far!

I was mildly unenthusiastic when I saw the concept, because it felt fairly standard as to what one would expect from the theme of "delivery" - and that's true, the concept's nothing special. But the execution is great!

The difficulty is exactly where it needs to be - I never got a game over, but I always felt a little bit of pressure that failure was imminent. When that pressure arrived, a wry player could spot the occasional shortcut - ways to hop over fences, cute detours, ramps - which are oftentimes just useful enough to be worth noticing.

The music's good, the gameplay's good, you play as a disembodied, driverless motorcycle - great work, developer.

The concept was pretty simple but still wanted to play more and more. Neat mechanics of the scooter. Loved riding it. Enjoyed earning virtual money haha.

Got a crazy taxi vibe going on, but stating the obvious a minimap would be a great addition and moving traffic would also add to the challenge but overall a good game on theme and fun to play.

This was one of the most enjoyable games I played so far. The controls are great and I love the drawn pizza man and graphic.

Big thumbs up!

Tres enjoyable! Gameplay was simple but nice and fun. I found the music very catchy and hummable. 1276.41 was my score...is that good? I liked the world you'd built but would've loved to have been sent up more ramps and to other cool "secret" places on the map.

fun low poly game. controls are really fluid, which seems to be a rare thing on a game jam where you have to drive a vehicle, so good work ok it!

This game is truly engaging, kept me on my toes from the very first second! And when I finished playing, I felt a strong urge to replay it a few times and improve my score. My teammate shared "Special Delivery" with me, stating it is the game to learn from. And so, I am currently learning, teacher :kissing_closed_eyes:

I liked your game vibe a lot, music works really cool making an impression of raging motor. Also loved smoothness of the controls and the feeling of speedrunning level. The only trouble at one of runs stucked in the valley near one of the trees, couldn't reproduce it though, I couldn't neither restart or move somewhere at that case. Still cool experience, thank you for your game!

I played for awhile and this is what I got. Game worth trying over and over for a high score. Great execution on a simple concept

Congrats ! Nice driving gameplay ! The graphics lack a bit of consistency.

I laughed at the idea of a sentient vespa getting hired to deliver pizza with no driver. Gameplay feels greats, you really nailed down how to make the driving feel natural and fluid, great job on that.

The game aesthetics reminded me a lot of 2000s era cartoon 3D games so that's also a win, and I think I see some Pizza Tower influence in the UI. Cool music btw.

Big kudos for doing the Compo, this is a great entry.

Great game, Really addictive and fun :) The only I would say is that the vehicle sfx is a bit agressive when you start the game I like the level design!

(Played the linux version. No problems.)

Simple, but fun. The concept is familiar and done, but it's executed quite well. This wouldn't have worked half as well without the music (even though the song itself isn't something you'd listen to outside of a game).

I got (mildly) stuck on some trees once (the row of trees in the narrow streets between the loose standing houses) where I think I should've been able to get through.

The most fun I had was driving through the park, when the little scooter feels a little bit moto-cross (minus the jumping).
