Definitely one of my favorites from entire jam, I love everything about this game: cute pixelart with cozy color palette, mega-man-like screen transitions, music, metroidvania style gameplay with backtracking and unlocking abilities, little fragments of lore that can be discovered by talking with NPCs, and flying on hang-glider!
Oh the only thing I'd improve is grabbing the ladder when in mid-air, that was a little inconsistent for me
Endless runner where you have to do many things at once and be careful not to run out of resources (health, papers, fuel). Pretty cool but a little unfair at times, I literally got 0 fuel pickups during one of the runs and lost pretty quickly even though I played perfectly. I'd tinker with game variables more - throw power should fill up less quickly and the bike should be faster to drive and turn, but overall I liked it.
Got me a while to understand what I am doing, then it got fun with resource management. Reminds me of io games like agar.io
"Correspondence-style" gameplay is very innovative, I liked that. But the game was pretty confusing, I am not sure if I even played it right. Would be cool if we could see on the map which squares we and other players control (maybe some colors?)
Cool game similiar to minecraft with clean graphics. But I think the last level is impossible to beat? I can get to the box and push it down to the floor but then can't move it, and even if I could there's a narrow corridor with impossible turn? Or am I missing something?
I don't get it, am I supposed to download and install .apk to play this?
Impressive visuals including animations. Nice fighting system with dodges, reminds me of something like batman asylum? The gameplay loop would need some refining, running back to dracula got old pretty fast. Also not sure what's the end goal is? And what do levels do? I got level up but I think nothing changes (also coulnd't find exp points required to advance)
That was hard, I rage-quitted on level 14 because of the dogs, but level 11 was the hardest with those little skateboarding brats. Overall very cool game, the graphics remind me of donkey kong and bugs bunny crazy castle on the NES. I liked music and randomization of letters/mailboxes too.
"Delina the priestess has succumbed to despair, her journey was 100% complete" - not sure if this means I've won? Because near the end some zombies got a little too close. Nice game, would be cool to be able to pick up thrown flairs.
Ver nice graphics and atmosphere, the amount of 3d models etc. created for this is impressive! Would be a little better if you could skip the lettering phase on the board and show entire word being written at once. The demon might be a little bugged too, because I was "shooting" it with the cross from multiple angles for a long time and then it suddenly disappeared.
Very nice game, loved the graphics. As said by others the packages arrived very fast, was a little stressful because of it, but maybe that's by design. Can get a little messy when too many packages fall onto the weighting scale. Also the sinister music gave me the impression that there was some way in the game to rebel and play against the rules maybe? Like making mistakes on purpose to escape this mundane job?
Very high quality production - music, graphics etc. are all pro level. I really liked that you can destroy enemy bullets with your own. I wish enemies were introduced sooner because navigating the drone was a little too easy and getting back to where I was killed was a little boring (maybe some checkpoint system would help)
Nice game but I don't think I understand the obstacles. Some clouds I could fly into and my ship got slower, but some (empty) space was just blocked?
Very nice graphics, shader and color palette. Captain was a funny jerk. It's nice that falling down was foreseen and the captain got new worker, lol.
I liked the 2d artstyle mixed with 3d background but I feel there were too many invisible walls restricting my movement.
Good job on the suspension, the motor scooter feels really bouncy and fun to ride. Would be cool to start each level with full pizza capacity because otherwise you always have to waste several seconds to get them. Really liked the graphics and models.
I really liked the gliding mechanic and the graphics. What did you use to make art? Are those vectors in illustrator? The only thing I'd improve is stamina, would be cool if it instantly filled when on the ground, because waiting seconds to retry jumping was a little annoying. Also the bird jumped up when the cursor was too far right/left which was weird.
Level 9 was tough, I got it by accident! See you again at 9:00 AM sharp :construction_worker:
Really nice game, pretty addictive. I loved the pixelart graphics. Music was catchy. Made me nostaglic because the character looked like Goku from Dragon Ball on the cloud.
Nice spin on arkanoid mechanics. Very cool art and fluid animations.
Cool game similiar to crazy taxi with PSX aesthetics. The car was very hard to control though, too much inertia I think.
Don't know why but I couldn't get any meat? I tried killing rabbits/goblins in multiple ways but nothing worked. Also I think you should be able to deliver items into mailboxes that are not current target. And would be cool if "1" attack was on left mouse button and others were on right mouse button, constantly switching was tiresome.
Yup same error as @aushijo when clicking SPACE in the menu of win 64bit version
@slimeboos ok works now, thanks. Pretty cool game, reminds me of micro machines on the NES. Would be better if the package/dropzone icons were visible on edges of the screen when far away because it's impossible to know which direction to go now. Also some GUI showing how many points I have right now + time bonus for delivering packages would be nice. I had an impression that the car was moving very fast on diagonals, maybe not normalized direction vector?
I think this might be the winner. Very nice level design that gradually teaches how to play. Challenging puzzles. Love the graphics, sounds, music, flying animation. Got stuck on level 11 but loved it anyway!
The only thing I'd add is to show which castle needs which delivery because I wasn't sure where to travel each time
Very nice game but I suck at it, lol. Couldn't kill the baddies near the barell without losing health. Was that made using NESmaker? Loved the audio and pixel art + nice job on working within NES constraints.
Score 65152 on default settings, pretty nice. Playing with the mouse is a little bit awkward, I recommend trying on touch screen!
Awesome graphics, what was your inspiration? It reminds me of Monster High but also some other thing that I don't remember. Sound effects were cool too, especially 180 turn on the motorbike. After a while I got lost and couldn't find my way back to the pizza place, lol.
The resolution is a bit off (cut off edges + scrollbars) but other than that a fun game. I think it broke on level with blue line? After touching the flag everything froze and I couldn't reset. Maybe it was the last level?
Very fun game, nice and simple audio/graphics. I really liked the feeling of acceleration and how much the punch thrusted you forward. Wall jumping with tongue-grabbing was excellent too.
Nice game, really like the splash screen and sound effects. Would be cool if there was a way to move the servers with the keyboard (for example WSAD, IKJL and arrow keys) but maybe then it would be too easy.
Nice style and melting shader. Would be cooler if the car could turn both ways, sometimes you are screwed because it isn't exactly in the center of the road and nothing can be done about it.
Nice game, I liked the power-ups, music and high enemy variety. The hardest enemy was definitely the cloud covering the view, lol. The screen shake at the last level was a little too much, I didn't know what was going on and why I was losing the treasure. But in the end I've got the daughter as a prize so that's cool :princess:
Throwing boxes was fun, my high score is 9. The purple thing in right-top corner was creepy, lol.
Addictive and fun, but would be nice if the progress bars didn't disappear when getting to "0", after a while it's hard to see which town needs which resource. Some ability to move the camera would be nice too because 4th town is hidden under GUI. IS the road drawing in final game? Because clicking on towns does nothing for me.
There's a little bug where you can push the log into the cat and then walk over it, and the game thinks I delivered the package, lol. Other than that there are 2 endings related to death, but I am pretty sure tortoises can swim :swimmer: I liked hand drawn panels and graphics.
Damn, if I knew there's going to be Molt's phase I wouldn't have touched those damn chests! Interesting game mechanic, i liked it. The game reminded me of 1st mission in diablo 2 where you have to kill all the monsters in The Den of Evil. Really nice graphics and retro music, similiar to shovel knight.
My highscore was 1100 :D The only thing I'd change are minus points for changing package's route, for example when I redirect red package to green conveyor belt and then back I get -100? I think it should be +100 for stylish delivery :sparkles:
I liked it except for controls, somehow isometric arrows don't click in my mind with arrow keys, maybe would be better if we were allowed to press the arrows continously to move several spots in succession.
Pretty short but I loved the pixelart - really clean and reminded me of oldschool flash games.
FYI the game doesn't work on ldjam page (tried in chrome and firefox) but I managed to run it on itch. I liked it - pretty challenging, nice retro graphics, logo inspired by super mario bros, many levels. Would be even better if levels changed automatically without pressing space (also not a fan of a level complete sound).
Awesome pixel art, especially in the splash screen. Funny story and ending. I really liked the dog death animation with their souls leaving the body, lol. The motorbike was OP!
That was a hard game, I think no-hit run is impossible :D The last boss with flying and teleporting was especially tough, good thing he wasn't healing on player's death. I really liked the music and the amount of different art elements.
Nice, physics allow for some kind of emerging gameplay and surprising trajectories.
Nice, first 5 levels were easy but the last one I had to restart because one of the stones fell from the platform and blocked my way back, lol. Very pretty atmospheric pixel art, especially on the congratulations panel.
I like it but can't finish 3rd level because of inputs mapping :( Would be the best if jumping and climbing ladder was mapped to up arrow. The gravity needs a little tweaking too I guess because the dog falls very fast sometimes! Animation is nice, reminds me of some old comedy anime like dr. slump or games with kunio-kun EDIT: Ok managed to complete all levels!
Doesn't work on chrome, it shows text "Exception thrown se JavaScript console". But I managed to run it in firefox. My highest score was 6. I agree with @bad-b4dguy, there should be some indication when you place the box correctly. Also the timer could stop after placing all the boxes. BTW. having no idea what to do with that theme is relatable.
Interesting idea. I think that it's a little unfair that you have to lose round after getting to the green doors to deliver item, maybe it would be better if just touching it was enough? Same with stairs. But for some reason the lamp works like stairs for me? Also the idea to switch floors with side mouse button is bold because I don't think everybody would have such a mouse.
My high score was 27. Pretty fun, would be nice to get some time bonus for each delivery.
Nice game, reminds me of Lemmings mixed up with Pac-man (because of level design and going from the left edge to the right and vice versa)
@bad-b4dguy wow, didn't know you could do that, that's some speedrunning strat right there :speedboat:
@remus - thanks! you have to export as HTML and name your file "index.html". Then go into the export folder, select all files and make .zip archive out of it. At first it didn't work for me because I was zipping entire folder, not the contents. Other than that I followed the official ludum dare html embedding guide which came to editing index.js file manually and replacing all instances of `'serviceWorker'in navigator`, `"serviceWorker" in navigator` etc to `false` (but I am not sure this step is necessary)
@candlesan @hugetube thank you very much, yeah I think this mechanic with exchanging multi-jumps for packages has potential, maybe I'll revisit it in the future after gaining some experience and skills. I've got some ideas for new levels where you could for example: pick up stones to put them on platforms to unlock doors, drop package/stones them from high enough to destroy some barriers, pick up packages that grant some kind of powerups/bonuses as long as you hold them, different boxes weightinig different amounts and impacting movement, boss fights etc.
@teadrinker thanks for playing, haven't thought of that. I might add some jump strength indicator in the future.
@kylethecoder haha yeah, literally got the idea this morning of adding some camera overview of the level before giving control to the player. But that would count as a feature so it's too late now.
@floke - spoiler alert - the trick is to take all 3 packages at once and glide over the pit without jumping :D I am surprised that people managed to transport only 2 packages and then go back for the last one, that wasn't intended at all.
@elementary you were supposed to place them on top of the orange platform, but you're right, it would be good to add some indicator like animated arrow pointing downwards.
@weirdbitgames yeah it was inspired by studio Ghibli's anime: "Kiki's Delivery Service"
@boon thanks for playing, Jiji is a name of the cat from anime "Kiki’s Delivery Service"
@olddog you can carry 3 at once just fine, try it.
It says "not found" when downloading the zip?
Fun little game, would be even better if stuff appeared off screen. I'd also add some steering to the car.
Yeah reminds me of mad max: fury road. Managed to get to the end but it was too easy, enemy cars literally melted when attacked with 3 turrets at once. Some indicator showing the direction vector would be nice (it's hard to grasp where we are moving because the background is too similiar), but overall I enjoyed it.
