Dude this was a fun little game!! The controls were very intuitive, and it definitely made me feel like I was in Kiki's Delivery Service hehe. At one point I had 3 orders active and I was picking up multiple at a time and then delivering them, and when I pulled it off it felt awesome :heart_eyes:
Thanks for your submission! I made 50 bucks on my day. I really enjoyed the music and mood it created together with the choice of the paper map. The smooth fly and controls helped into aclimate myself into the city, good job there!
If anything, I'd take out the seagulls and make the challenge be some other constraint, they are too disruptive to the whole atmosphere :)

I can definitely turn down the amount of birds flying around! They are a little much
I liked the seagulls! Please don't take them out. Great game :)
Don't worry dont worry im keepin em in! There's just gonna be less of them haha
I *really* liked the music and vibe of just cruising around delivering orders - Great job with that! At first, I agreed with the other commenters that the seagulls could be hard to avoid and took down the vibe, but I think my problem was that I would be moving so fast that I wouldn't see the seagull in time to react. Once I started slowing down a bit, they were a lot less troublesome, and it felt really good once you felt like you were in control of the broom.
My only complaint was that I kept getting pulled out of flow when a new gig came in - I couldn't think of any reason I would turn one down (even if it didn't pay well, I could just ignore it seemingly without penalty), so disrupting gameplay to accept/decline an order felt harsh.
Overall though, I enjoyed my time filling in for Kiki :)
I'll also say I think the game is faster than it was when I was working on it, there's something with how built Godot games work I've yet to figure out...I think you're right about the orders, I'll look at that and see how I can make that feel better.
This was a lot of fun! Very satisfying to zip around, would love to play more of this.
The controls are reasonably responsive, it felt kinda nice to just fly for a bit, though yeah it helps to keep speed down some. Nice, chill music.
@holdmeimscared ive reduced the speed of the player a bit as it was a lil fast. @debone i have turned down bird spawning!
Like everyone else said, the whole sound design was very nice. The little detail of seeing the packages on your broom handle was super cool!
uber eats on a broom stick love it! i for some reason managed to dodge the birds, but when i hit one i laughed my arse off!!!
Very nice! Good chill music, loved the birds, noticed a few subtle UI things that were cool (the arrow changes size depending on how close you are to your destination). Lots of good polish in general. Good stuff!
The visual design is super clean, and I really enjoyed the music. The UI was well done and zipping around Toronto was satisfying. I managed to make 59 bucks on my day!
What do you think about adding some visual indicator that you're going slow enough to make max tip?
@eric-nguyen oh this is a great idea! will look into this

Good job. My friend also wanted to make a Kiki's Delivery-inspired game but he bailed, so it's nice to see the idea come to life after all
> What do you think about adding some visual indicator that you’re going slow enough to make max tip?
I think this is a bad idea actually. Some things should be left to the player's intuition
Very relaxing game to play, even with the seagull. Gets a little repetitive after a few deliveries. But love the top down map style of play.
I really love this concept. In fact, it was one of the ideas I was toying with for the jam, and I am so glad that you didn't just make it, but did a really good job with it!
This game is suprinsingly engaging. Got around 85 bucks at my best day. It turned out to be super fun to have several deliveries at once and try to make them all (last second, of course!). Intuitive controls with a bit of a learning curve also added to the welcomed challenge.
Music is super fitting and chill, you feel like you are cruising over the city! Add some nice city graphics, add "night shift" with lighted streets, maybe tweek broom physics so it's not a simple "slide with acceleration", and ship it! Really not that far from a finished game, would love to see more :smile:
Fun game! Great idea! I think the controls take a bit of time to get used to, but after a while I had a great time.
This is surprisingly fun! Great work on the gig-app interface etc making it feel authentic. Music is great as well!
This is a fun little game! Having multiple pickups with both cooldown/readiness timers and delivery timers and an overall worknight timer plus the momentum based movement makes it turn very quickly into a hectic scenario! I like it! Flying over a streetmap was a really clever design decision
Love the game! I made 74 bucks, one nice thing you could add is some sort of visual indicator for the timer on how long itll take the food to be ready, but that's a small nit, loved the game otherwise
The controls are a bit tricky, but I like the idea of playing on a real map even though I don't know where it is
Simple concept with simple controls. The gameplay is a bit challenging but it's okay. I like simplified solution of the background, like it's just a map but it works well for this idea. Well done! Also I like that main character is a witch )
Really neat game, love the atmosphere! Feels challenging and hectic, yet somehow really soothing and wholesome. Agreed with the wish for an acceptance of new orders that doesn't pause the game.
I also wasn't sure what effect the timer on delivery has exactly, as I eventually realized you can still deliver the food and even get tips after it has run out.
Great job!
@kler the timer just affects your tips for that order
This was a fun game, but the map as the background made it a little hard to see. I was a little confused on how to get the packages delivered at first cause I found a delivery location before finding the package to deliver, but that was just me being stupid lol. Overall, it was fun to play!
Great little game good job.
nice game. would be nice if icons for food pickup were bags of food, I was confused which color was for what.
@haymakercoding great idea!
Controls are good, I get 70$ score. I don't understand why I have to wait while marker is fill for food, why just do not start it when you fly to marker? and no wait for food. The birds are do nothing, I can't even fly to them)
And the game is playing very nice and engaging, you have a solid tasks,controls and visuals.
What I liked it's the map. At first I was thought that you add real world map and I will be fly all over the globe :)
Nice idea witch fly delivery :tophat:
This was a delight! Easy to pick up and play and shoot for a high score - was _almost_ extra tough having to rely on colors for orders (for colorblind folk like myself), but I was able to do okay.
Really dug this game! I omly made liek $25 my first try but 65 my second. Love the chill music, great stuff!
I liked it, simple and effective. I like it's taking place on a real map. It only works with US layout keyboard.
Aww sweet, this is a great aesthetic, I really liked zipping around the map. The tunes are great too!
Fun and well-made game, just kinda felt lacking in terms of like, content? Maybe some different order types and more dynamic hazards would have helped. I love the music, it's very chill. Very comfy game overall!
Oh wow, this is one of my favorites so far! Kiki's Delivery Service meets Crazy Taxi. Controls were good, music was chill, I laughed when a customer asked "why are there feathers in my food?!" when I dropped something off after ramming into a bird. Would love to see this get developed a bit further!
Haha, this is pretty great and fun to play - my sneaky secret strategy is to go REALLY FAST and bounce off the walls of the map. Probably not intended, but a fun way to play.
Biiiiiiiirds!
Ha, this is definitely a fun little chill game, awesome work! Good use of sounds / music, flow was nice, appreciated the text bits when you hit seagulls haha. Thanks for sharing!
To my surprise, I liked it. Nothing fancy, but the controls are quite responsive, and the idea of using the map as a location is great. The cooking mechanics add variety. Everything combined works well. Nice job.
79.31 was my record. Clean gameplay, I really enjoyed it.
A f***ing seagull scared me hahahha
Movement is nice and smooth, chill music and overall game is relaxing and cozy.
