Finished the game, the ending made me smile)
As for feedback: - Some guidance would help a lot, maybe save hints that customers gave you somewhere on the screen or near the customer model. Had to revisit most of them multiple times to find the right one haha - Some environment elements would make it much more pleasant to walk around - Maybe that's the issue on my side, but camera jitters on movement
Great submission, bear animation is my favorite, had a good laugh there. The art is nicely crafted and the sound is on point, loved it!
When finishing a game I still had some items in my backpack and I simply wasn't expecting the game to end at that point. It would be nice to be able to continue playing to get the whole story, otherwise I have to start all over again which is a bit of a bummer
I was wondering if someone would make a game about delivering babies haha. Good job with art as well, looks very cute Overall a nice entry, just wish there were at least a couple more levels
Completed the game and quite enjoyed the combat and sounds, nice entry, a lot of content as well, spent good 15 minutes here :)
A bit of feedback: - it would be nice to make parry window shorter, (maybe even almost as short as in mordhau or chivalry) in the current state it's just a way better block. Also you can spam it without loosing energy and there's no cooldown which makes you sort of unkillable haha - on the last level I found a green guy way before the relic, maybe it's also worth marking him on a minimap - Having one enemy type if fine, but just for the sake of diversity you can give them different weapons / hats / shield. Normally this shouldn't take a lot of time, but would add a lot of flavor to the game
Nice game, felt a bit slow for the first couple of minutes, but other than that - great!
Liked the graphics and the setting, a good idea which I haven't seen while checking other games from this jam :) Sound of cars engine made me smile, can imagine how you were recording them, must've been a lot of fun. Also hand drawn art looks great, especially the shop screen
My only remark is that it that the game is lacking some indication / guidance. I was not sure if the delivery was successful, having some sound or a pop up text when driving through the drop indicator would be nice. Cars could also use some particles when turning or just when riding, similar to those that they have on collision, it would enliven the picture
Other than that - great submission and a lot of creative ideas!
Had a great time playing, everything adds up to a very complete picture, good music, beautiful art and fun gameplay. Nicely done!
Visuals are good, and I quite like the fonts, but UI can get a bit overwhelming sometimes. It would also be nice to stop carrying the cart on attack, instead of having to press space (took me like 3 deaths to figure out that you can even press space :laughing: )
I'm amazed by the fact that GPS actually works and adjusts the path if I'm going on another road, that's cool! Liked the game and spend a good 10-15 minutes playing it. Great that you added somewhat of a shortcuts, like park roads and the missing bridge
My only wish is that there were more life in it, like other cars or citizens. And maybe some background music, changing radio stations would add a lot of flavor to a day-to-day of delivery driver)
Overall great entry!
You managed to create a great creepy atmosphere, liked it a lot! Since it's quite hard to understand what to do or where to go without watching a playthrough video some guidance would be nice, like having an objective or a direction arrow pointing where should I deliver the corpse
Maaan, the level of polish is insanely good, the screen shakes, sounds, particles, top notch. Liked the game a lot and struggled even in regular mode. Great job, got nothing to add but praises!
took me a couple of tries to get to 485. Clean idea and good execution, liked the car controller and particles on drift, great job!
oh man, having cats in your game is almost a cheat code, adorable and great entry! Great humor and sounds The only remark is that I had an issue where I ordered a TV and had no box at the front door, looked literally everywhere but wasn't able to find it and had to restart since the TV was the only fitting box :c
Great game, spend way to much time on 6th level, wasn't really a smooth sailing for me, but still completed all available levels and had a lot of fun, amazing job! Even better if I account for world of warcraft reference haha
I really liked the music and the art style. Also how scales are running the numbers up, looks very nice Unfortunately my first impression was ruined when I had to restart twice, because all of the sudden I just wasn't able to pick up a letter and the timer would run out :c
Having a bit more in-game instructions would also be nice, e.g. addition of a couple of tutorial letters where the action sequence would be explained (weight > check marks > rotate letter to see the other side etc.) Otherwise it's a bit unclear on where to even start
@sjpixels thanks for the reminder and the feedback, added credits for artists
@gmstochetto we wanted to give some reward for completing a level, harder levels give more money. But there's nothing to spend in-game currency on. So we decided to make it so that buying upgrade = going to a harder levels, sort of upgrading your post office equipment and being able to handle more complex deliveries. And this "next upgrade" is like a small goal for player to achieve aside from completing a puzzle. Hope my explanation makes sense haha
@Remco after completing day 12 normally you get a message saying that you completed the game and suggest you to play in endless mode. The day never ends and puzzles will repeat themselves so you can play however much you want
And yeah, the key thingy isn't a good fit. Thanks for all the feedback, glad you liked it!
