Nice game, I like the art work. The movement feels really solid.

Good bit of fun, reminds me of a game I used to play on a plug and play console that had a bunch of oooooold games on it, good work!

It was complicated for me to stay alive for at least 15 sec, some cars are so fast and there is no time to react because of you are too close to the left side of the screen. Monowheel on the highway if funny)

Really fun to be pushed to multitask this hard! That dog keeps getting me tho. And I like the art work!

Fun idea, liked the aesthetic as well and the "shift" animation. The sudden gore is a nice touch as well same for the cars crashing into each other, adds to the general chaos going on. One thing I took some time to understand the journals were being sent towards the pointer, maybe a different pointer could've helped communicate that, otherwise that's a pretty complete and self-contained experience.

Really fun game! It has really nice graphics & audio and it is was really fun to multitask between dodging and throwing the paper. The only thing is that after a while it gets repetetive. But for a game made in 72 hours it is very good!

A gore monowheel paperboy remix! ^^ Two suggestions: it feels a bit complex to use keyboard and mouse at the same time, keyboard only would feel more natural. And cars come in so fast it's really difficult to react. Maybe some speed adjustments for the cars, on displaying indications for incoming vehicules? Kudos for providing a web version! Well done!

I somehow got stuck outside of the camera view and couldn't come back xD I love throwing paper at people and causing accidents, but it gave me negative points. :( Fun game :D I like the sound effects and the graphics even though they are a bit too washed out or too light(?). Lot's of content and quite polished, well done overall.

Nice little game! I didn't get too far because I ran over so many times but I really like the concept. Having to throw newspapers while dodging incoming traffic is actually pretty fun lol. I really like the mix of 3D and pixel art. The only real downside for me was the fact that I didn't quite know who to throw the newspaper to in the first place, it was a bit hard to see the people on the side walk.

Fun and simple. The blood effects were a nice touch, and the gameplay loop is fun - having to think about both dodging cars and hitting targets is a challenge. Nice game!

Really liked this game. It's got just the right amount of things to multitask with a good amount of variety with the car behaviour. Pretty interesting that you have to play with the cars to get rid of the dogs, while also keeping an eye out on things to throw papers too. My only complaint is that the colour palette being so limited in contrast makes everything blend together which makes it quite hard to see the people to throw papers to.

Love the 2.5D aesthatics the newspaper on the end is also very funny

pouyan-shekarikiani 2023-05-12 10:15

Awesome game, it got pretty crazy real fast lool, dogs chasing me then getting hit by the cars and stuff, one time i saw a car on top of another car and they were on fire, or something like that. i dont know if that was a bug or a feature lmao but it was pretty cool. i got to 233 score but couldn't finish it.

jk5000 2023-05-12 19:05

A hard, but also a really funny little game. Well done.

epb9000 2023-05-13 18:22

That was hilarious, only got 60 points, but at least I took a few dogs with me. Muhahahahaha

luthwyhn 2023-05-13 21:13

Fun game, love the graphics except that I got sad when the dog exploded

sebhulhu 2023-05-13 22:31

Fun game :-) I cannot count the times I was run over by a car now :D
