Great art, a little hard to understand though

nuin 2023-05-02 03:07

art is clean, sounds are nice, driving feels good. The UI only really works in full screen, some scaling issue

nuin 2023-05-02 03:08

i want pizza now mannnnnn

boboch-d-brew 2023-05-02 03:09

Nice graphics & driving ! can't really understand tho

aushijo 2023-05-02 03:09

nice art and good driving mechanics but a tutorial would be good

I loved that you could deliver 3 items at once unlike most games of this nature where you're limited to one order at a time. The car felt just slippery enough to control where it was more fun then frustrating. My only issue was the lack of a minimap. Sometimes I felt lost and did not know where to go, maybe in a future update have a minimap in the corner or have a map togglable through a keyboard button (like hold m). I also think the car sprites are a nice touch! really cool.

Love the design. I did have some trouble controlling the car.. but also it was super fun to do donuts. Haha.. Great work!

On the whole it is a good thing that there was no one else on the roads of your town, and that the car is indestructible :) I really liked this idea for the game jam, and I think that you executed it well. The car was fun to drive around, if not simple to get where I was trying to go, and the lack of an overall timer or goal kept the pizzas getting cold from being frustrating. Overall a well put together game, well done!

The graphics, polish, and audio design are really well done here. I think the game could use a bit more UI work and feedback to help the player understand what's going on.

I really like the art,The operation is a bit difficult for me

Great art especially on the car and it's tire marks. I love the pizza shop building and all the little food icons. I wish the car was a little easier to control but crashing it was fun. If you were to expand it it would be nice if there was some sort of gps because you just got to keep driving until you find things. Car sound effects and music fit well. Great job.

Great game! It was a ton of fun to drift around all over the place though I do wish backing up was a bit faster as running into building happened a lot. It did just seem infinite though, I didn't see any sort of end or win/lose condition which I think is important for games. Maybe it could have been that you need to deliver a certain number of pizza's every 30s or you get fired. Or maybe the car could only take so much damage and it ends when you destroy it.

I love these controls!!! It's very nice game with such a great dynamic and smooth movement! I wish my pizza deliverer was so fast :smile:

dreunin 2023-05-02 20:08

Cool game. Liked how skid marks work. Doubt the tips are going to cover my car repairs :)

madr 2023-05-02 20:12

Nice car controller. Once I got used to it I just kept drifting! Visuals ware nice as well!

willchoprojects 2023-05-02 20:18

A little hard to drive (I might just be bad haha) I like the graphics and vibes!!

cecilia-blanco 2023-05-02 23:22

The artwork is really nice but it is a bit hard to drive the car. The sound effects were really good though!

chompdev 2023-05-03 01:45

This is a really fun little delivery game! It's a blast being able to pick up orders from any nearby restaurant and quickly memorize what certain customers want as you fly by. The car sprites are great and the driving is fun. Good work on the audio and variety of objectives, too. Nice work - you should be proud of this one!

rainsong 2023-05-03 15:15

Lots of fun!

bageldesu 2023-05-03 15:46

Annoying to steer, but i found it hilarious that a pizza driver can just ram into a building in the name of delivering pizza xD

If I could add anything, it would be to add a map or an objective marker to help with planning out your routes.

well made sprites though i love it!

smdaniels 2023-05-03 20:29

Graphic style is nice! Car сontrol feels very smooth. I think map would be a greate decition!

defrag 2023-05-03 22:55

Solid take on the theme. I enjoyed the arcade driving action. I delivered about $200 of pizza and wings before I started feeling like there wasn't anything to keep me going. Was there a countdown or goal that I was trying to hit? The perspective shift on the car was an interesting visual mechanic. Nice work on the varied crashing sounds too.

tony-li 2023-05-04 00:41

Nice art and audio! The driving controls are intuitive but let me just say it's a good thing the car doesn't take damage when running into buildings. I swear I'm a better driver in real life. :-) Being able to pick up orders and take them to "regulars" by remembering where certain types of orders are wanted is a nice touch.

jake-g 2023-05-04 02:32

I like the pixel art car, and the fact that it leaves tire marks on the ground. It was pretty difficult to control, not sure if that’s just me.

lee-martin-77 2023-05-06 11:35

Really strong classic GTA vibes from the look and feel! I really enjoyed the mechanics of the car once I got used to it, and the sounds were ace. I think the only things it could do with would be some more risk/pressure (maybe a time limit? Punishment for pizza going cold?), and I'd maybe have made it clearer the destinction between a pickup item and a delivery item.

The core mechanics are great though and this is a great skeleton you could build a whole game around!

a1stakesauce 2023-05-07 15:05

Driving inputs were very good maybe need a few adjustments to make you feel like you are getting good at it, increase the player satisfaction. Nice good old arcade feel to it. Art and sound fit the style very well and on theme.

kyboon 2023-05-07 15:17

Might be the best SFX I've seen so far, the engine sounds are top notch. Also the car leaves trails behind? Wow.

It's very hard to control the car, but rewarding to learn.

The 3 slots is an interesting idea, (almost) making the player need to plan out which to deliver first. Why almost? Because there's no map, and which type of customer you meet first is up to luck, their required toppings might or might not match what you're carrying.

The game has a lot in details, but in the grand scheme of things it's missing a lot of components as a game. The gameplay loop itself is not completed in my opinion, there's no game over condition, no goal, no penalty.

Anyway, still a great job on the game. I understand this is a jam game and there will be things that the devs want to implement but didn't have the time to do so.

zgragselus 2023-05-08 16:26

The car sound is amazing. There seems to be some depth in the game - multiple ingredients, forcing player to plan ahead what he wants to do.

I missed a minimap, that could navigate me always towards the 'origin'.

Had a strong old first GTA vibes.

Good job!

Clearly better than my score. 5 points in each category :thumbsup: I had to laugh several times, about my driving :laughing:
