This is actually really fun, wasn´t expecting it would walk instead of fly and I love the ps1 style graphics.

Loved the graphics and rag dolling, the pigeon is very cute as well. Took me awhile to figure out what was going on I walked a few steps then got sent flying but was a very fun game, the landmines constantly making you fly everywhere makes it pure chaos and it is amazing.

Unique gameplay, and cool pixel graphics, like it. Pigeon ragdoll is funny

Really makes you feel like corporal pigeon. The game was really fun once I figured out what was going on, and the mood is excellent. I would just change the tank/mine behavior so you have a bit of a grace period after getting blown up. It's really easy to get stuck in a loop of landing on mines or getting run over by the tank without anyway to escape. Maybe allow the player to direct the pigeon in the air so they can try to land in a safe spot?

I'm sorry but I could not figure this one out. I just kept exploding and falling all over the place. And the box I was supposed to deliver kept flying all over the place too. Too bad because this looks great. Cool pigeon.

I love the general idea of the pigeon delivering packages :) ! However, the tank is difficult to dodge, but the atmosphere provides enough fun to want to replay the game :D !

The graphical style was cool, but the gameplay doesn't seem to work very well. Just one explosive (often outside the camera's view) starts an endless loop of getting knocked down because of how long it takes to get up and the lack of a dodge.

top tier concept and aesthetic, i was NOT expecting to fly 100' in the air and burst out laughing when i did

This has to be one of if not the funniest Ludum Dare games I have ever played!

I was so confused about what was happening the entire time! Once I figured it out and learned to evade the landmines, it was actually really fun, and has lots of replay value! But the ragdoll physics, constant barrage of explosions and loud noises everywhere, and the one tank, that relentlessly chases you around the map while you're bouncing around all over the place, that just made my day! xD

I honestly didn't find much use for the throwing mechanic, aside from getting up quicker, it was usually much safer to deliver the intel on foot. Still, I'm glad it's there! Also pressing the play button multiple times quickly causes the audio to stack on top of itself, which makes the game even more chaotic!

Amazing job! :)
