Express Delivery

The midwife & her remarks are charming, but I'm afraid that's the only thing this game got going for it. The upgrades are rather unnecessary, as you're able to easily finish the levels with only a bit more time. Once you have delivered all the babies, you have to wait out the timer to go to the next level, which is a bit tiresome. It would've also been nice to have some sound effects/music. P.S: running into the green bar at the bottom of the levels zooms the camera in all the way into the van itself!

I like the take on the theme and minimalistic graphics. But it would be nice to have some progression (maybe different paths with the necessity to find the best route and increasing amount of couples) and better balance of the upgrades. First level was challenging, but the upgrades make the game way too easy.

Steering speed is framerate dependant! I was like "Why is it turning so slowly it's so annoying", then I clicked on low graphic settings and suddenly the van was like a spinning top. It needs balancing because after a single round of upgrade it's basically impossible to loose unless you do it on purpose. Love the ideo though, am I stealing babies oO?

So *that's* where babies come from!

The idea is kinda silly, but I like the way it uses two different meanings of "delivery". Landing precise shots while driving down the road is fun for a bit, but it's a overall a bit simplistic. There's little need to turn at all since you can reach couples on either side of the road by shooting from the centre. The upgrades also feel imbalanced. Van speed is reasonable, but the time limit and starting babies upgrades quickly give you way more than you could ever need. Gameplay aside, the graphics are fairly simple, but still have a certain charm to them.

Thanks for submitting your game to be played on the stream! If you wanted to watch my reaction again here’s the vod timestamped to your game https://youtu.be/0LdDwOAkfzc?t=13890

I think it's a fine foundation, the auto aim on the cannon made it possible to fire babies while driving at full speed, which was fun to pull off. But I also feel the kinda player-driven pacing (I gathered the "distance" upgrade determines the length of levels) made it all feel a bit aimless.

Graphically looks good. For the delivery is somehow missing information that you have delivered something. That would clarify the subject. :thumbsup:

I love the graphics of the city! The character looks a bit out of place, but besides that with a bit of balancing it can be a lot of fun. Great take on the theme, too!
