Nice Game

This was a really fun game! I loved exploring the world, using the street finder on the map.

Fun little game. Loved the artstyle and gameplay (reminds me of what I was trying to achieve way back in LD53). Lack of sound was unfortunate. Good effort -- well done.

Such adorable pixel art—it’s really different from the AI-generated stuff so many people use. It has such a great retro feel.

Fun! I love the colors.

I liked this one! The art is simple but works really well. It's a shame there's no sound, and I really appreciated being able to buy better shoes to move faster. Nice work! Really enyojed it!

The pixel art is great! It took me a few minutes to get a grasp on how to fully utilize the map. But I had a great time delivering mail, delivering extras, and exploring. The only ask I would have is that you mark the post office on the map because I forgot where it was a couple of times and had trouble ending my day lol. I really enjoyed it. The character's animations reminded me of my early childhood playing an Atari game that I can't even remember what game it was, but it is a happy memory. Thanks!

A few houses were mislabeled, A house that should have been 1 King was 1 Last Flurry, and one that should have been 1 Beverley Alley was 1 Library Alley.

It was a pretty chill game, it took me a bit to figure out where Little Family Hamlet was. I didn't play enough to get a house, it was pretty far off. It would have been easier if I had more high dollar items to deliver as extras, I had enough people wanting puzzles to get a car, then everyone wanted just apples after that.

Aah nice cozy postman game! I love delivering mails here. I got confused on which part is solid and which is not at first but get it eventually. I got letter with wrong address once and I had to find the correct address manually. The upgrade system is good. I was disappointed that I didn't have enough cash to do a sidequest at first but fortunately the NPC did wait for me in the next day.

The art is cute, wonder why you did not enable the graphics category. Gameplay is a bit too slowpaced and simple to be fun.

Didn't expect much from the game at the start but I was pleasantly surprised by the gameplay and open world. Not a bad entry at all. I had fun exploring the town and I like that you have to check the street names and addresses. Although, mail services still exist and are used a lot so I wouldn't exactly call it Old Tech.

Simple concept (with a very loose Old Tech theme affiliation) but the execution is pretty good. It's a shame you couldn't add some SFX or music. It may be a bit slow paced though, like getting the best shoes takes a bit of time. Maybe a small dash with cooldown that you can perfectly chained to gain a super boost (a la Abzu) would help. Also it could have helped to put on the map the buildings once you discover, or current extra errands/quest givers. But as a whole it's a cool little entry with plenty of content.

Cute game, very much in the cozy vein. I could not find 1 Library or the Little Family Hamlet (though I see from other comments they were out there and I just missed them). I liked the addition of the quests, though a way to mark the map would have been helpful to keep track of where different locations were. Upgrading your character with shoes, etc feels good. Well done!

Cool game with nice pixel art! Nice sense of exploration. There's a typo at the beginning where it has WSAD instead of WASD, but I mostly just found that funny.
