Very great game, nothing much to say, it remind me of crazy taxi it looks and sound very well, nice job !
Super polished game from the menu to the gameplay. Really enjoyable!
I enjoyed cycling around the town. I really liked the sound and music - I know you didn't enter the sound category but you picked well. The dead ends (cul-de-sac) are the hardest part. Several times I turned down those and lost my multiplier! Thanks for the game 👍🏻
Pretty simple but fun game overall! also cool effect with the perspective on the buildings and trees :thumbsup:
Really like the way you made it look 3D, very polished and crisp
Tried 3 times but little over 1k points is my highest score :D Cool game, I would love to see some power ups or shop added in post-jam version if one will be ever created :D
Gnarly! I love the game. The 3D effect is really awesome and it just feels good to keep the strike up. With the main menu, options, seed settings, score entry and everything, it feels like a complete game and that is great.
Wait this is so good!! One of the best games I've played this jam, if not the best. From the menu to the graphics to the screenshots in your entry, this is so so polished for one weekend!
This came together really nice!
The graphics have a good balance of chunky and detail, the music loop fits well, and the fonts fit well.
The procedural (?) city generation sometimes produces dead ends that are hard to spot and kill your combo. Not sure if there's a way to spot these from farther away or not; maybe it's just operator error.
The dogs are kind of tricky, with limited turn and view radii I wasn't very good at dodging them. I wish I had more tools to interact with them. Maybe something like bones placed around the map I can pick up and throw to temporarily distract them? It could also give the player more things to do in the world.
Overall nice work!
Fun arcade style paperboy-like. Love the graphics and the parallax effect. The mouse controls work surprisingly well - slowing down if you make too much an angle is a nice touch.

@kuviman well done :thumbsup:
Thanks for submitting your game for me to play on my stream! If you’d like to rewatch the playthrough, you can find it here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1809503221?t=32m56s Good luck on your ratings, see you next LD! :D 💜 Elysia Griffin AKA Button Feedback Lady https://www.twitch.tv/elysiagriffin
Great submission! Feels like a well polished arcade experience and of course fits the theme quite well.
I like the clear audio indications for losing a combo or taking damage. Makes it very obvious what is happening at all times.
The art wasn't my favorite but it was at least clear what was happening. I would have liked a bit bigger of a player character and dog sprites.
Nice controls even without braking but the braking made it so much better once I started using it.
Overall, great submission!
I love a good combo system, the voice lines were super fun. I really wanted to impress the guy. Overall great game, well done!
This was really fun!
Nice work! We liked the fake 3D effect a lot! One question: how did you manage to make the user send out their score? We tried with a simple HTTP Post but it only works with the Windows version, while it doesn't with the WebGL one. Thanks!
Hey @bashem thanks for the Feedback. I use Globalstats.io and their provided documentation. I think it uses UnityWebRequests, never had any problems with it.
Someday, I'll get better. But. I scored higher than RickyLee for a few moments. xD scooore.PNG
kuvi definitely cheated
there's no way he's this jiggy
Nice one using paralax in a top down pixel art game! The dogs adds an extra layer of dificulty besides the timer. The art is awesome!
The parallax effect makes this stand out! the gameplay loop is nice! as i said on stream, the generation makes you feel "boxed in" at times so can be tweaked, but i understand that's not an easy thing to do in a jam! great job!
dogs are bad
i want to pet the dogs! 0/10 (j/k)
Quite fun! Keeping up the combo was really challenging, especially when delivery points become more sparse.
Thanks for submitting your game on the stream! Here’s the stream if you wanted to re-watch initial thoughts (timestamps in the description to jump to your game!) [youtube link](youtu.be/7zAPBeiWuqA)
Really fun game! Couldn't ever figure out a way to reliably dodge those dogs, though - but maybe that's the point, being a mailman and all. Great job!
wow, amazing quality and attention to details! the game plays really enjoyable, good combination of music and art choice
Great entry, proud of you smashing through this as a new father! You created a really engaging, replayable, arcade high score game. The bike movement felt on point, and there game required precise navigation to keep the combos going. The dogs felt a little too punishing at times, since you couldn't really avoid them if you happened to encounter them head on.
Really solid overall package! Sound, graphics, gameplay all match well. Nice work!
Really good game. Great graphics and sound. Really polished experience.

Fun game! the parallax/fake 3d effect was really cool too :D It seemed like the dogs always spawned in front of the play and usually it didn't feel fair. I think it could be cool if the dogs were stationary and barking at you (I think some "*bark* *bark*" text could help draw attention to them if they start out not moving), and then after a short timer they start chasing you
I managed 2442 after like 8 tries xD Mailman-Madness.png
This game is super vibrant and really fun to play. I loved the online leaderboard. The parallaxing on the buildings felt a bit jittery and gave me a little bit of a headache, but that might be a me thing. This game is super polished! Nice one.
