After trinyg to chose destination for 5 minutes I read the description... I wasnt expecting that guitar, great job!

@ylaxus Thanks, I'm grateful for your review. In retrospect, I think I made a mistake making that kind of "bad UI" joke. I will take that in consideration for the next jam!

I don't understand what I'm supposed to do

Did not get a package at first time, that was an very interesting experience, different! I don't know why I had so much trouble at the start to get the card in even haha. Jolly little game. :)

@mkraw Maybe you are blocked at the "chose destination". Try to click on labels (text) behind the popup.

I got the 'good ending!' This is a really innovative take on the theme, looking at the customer perspective of delivery and different stages from packing to driving. I liked the music too. I did find the first challenge quite frustrating because you could get the card into the right rotation but then hit something at the top when you bring it up to place it in the machine which rotates it incorrectly, maybe the moving leaf things could come from the opposite direction to prevent this? Also would be nice to have a checkpoint at the start of each stage so you don't have to replay earlier levels if you fail.

@big-cow thanks for your feedback! You make valid points! I will definitely have to remember them for the next jam. Having checkpoints would definitely help the experience.

The game doesn't load for me. I tried it on Firefox and Chrome, but "I'm receiving WebGL context lost, please reload the page" or a blank screen :(

A tad confusing to play, since it's all different mini-games and no instructions but at the same time makes it fun to discover. 2-3 times I lost while driving the truck, not entirely sure why. The guitar is definitely a nice touch! Great entry overall.

Guitar music is a big plus! I found the minigames a little frustrating; the card game sometimes doesn't register when the card is in the right position. I still don't know how I got past the delivery location. Truck-driving was fun until I lost and had to restart from the beginning. Thematically, I was a little confused by the minigames. Why do leaves rotate my credit card? Why are there bubbles in the way of my delivery truck? Don't mean to be too negative; props for building and shipping a game, and the "series of minigames" structure is working in a good way.

@iqoribou Thank you for your feedback! When 3 soap bubbles touch the truck, it disrupts the delivery. I definitely understand your point, I should have added visual feedback indicating the deterioration of the truck/package!

@quoc Hi! Are you playing on Desktop or Mobile? I didn't test it on mobile. I'm using Godot 4.0

quoc 2023-05-05 16:47

@jiexdrop I am playing on a Mac.

jiexdrop 2023-05-05 17:41

@quoc It seems to me it is an error with the HTML5 exporter of Godot 4.0. I was not aware of this. Thanks! PS: I can't provide a solution at the moment. If you can try on another operating system, it may work! (I tested on Windows 10 and Edge/Chrome)

Interesting little game! Good job

reed-molbak 2023-05-06 15:24

I wasn't able to get past the "Choose a delivery" screen -- it seemed like it would always select countries I didn't click on. I was on html5 so maybe there was an issue there.

nizanth-p 2023-05-06 15:34

It's a nice little delivery puzzle game. Make an effort to add more orders for delivery; currently, there is only one order available. Good work!

jiexdrop 2023-05-07 14:58

@reed-molbak it was an intended "bad UI" joke that I'm not proud of 😅 The solution is to click behind the popup, in the country you selected label.

For the joke: my package was not sent to my country but to another one, that had a similar city name.

sayurinyooko 2023-05-17 12:24

Oh, what a game! I like this one and I laughed so much when I tried to choose the country. Thank you for your game!

thunnus 2023-05-17 16:38

Clever, original, funny game. I am ALWAYS down to try surreal games. There are a few UI improvements that would make it smoother, but you took on a lot here and I'm impressed. I had to read through the comments several times to figure out how the hell to pass the "Country" part, but it was worth it. My team has been talking about doing a minigame rush, so I think I'll send this to them for research.

this is simple and fun and I like it! I appreciate the change in gameplay that keeps the game from becoming dull, the guitar is a nice touch and the art style is decent! good work!

jiexdrop 2023-05-18 14:41

@thunnus Thank you! It's a pleasure for me to hear you found my game interesting to share to your team!
