Nice little racer!
FYI apart from stretching to widescreen it runs great on the lovejs-player The downloaded version is not stretched.

I cannot get the LOVE JavaScript viewer working on my laptop at all (none of the submitted games work for me) so I was reluctant to submit it blindly
Thanks for sharing! What’s your cpu / gpu?
If had known the Deliverator entrance exam was going to be this hard, I would have stuck to skateboard courier! Nice look and I liked the navigation arrows. You might consider sound at some point -- even just a few fx here and there (squealing tires, banging when you hit a house, that kind of thing) would add a lot to the experience.
Worked fine on MacOS Big Sur/Intel. I did have some weird lag at the start, but then it worked at normal speed. Didn’t make a lot of money, but zoomed around delivering a while.
I'm having trouble getting it to run on macOS/Apple Silicon; the .app bundle will launch, but no windows are created. I can select "About Pizza Express" and get the Löve 2D about dialog (v 11.4a), but nothing else.
So I tried downloading the .love file and running that and I basically got the same thing; I've got 11.5a installed.
Any ideas?
Have you tried using the function keys to override the auto scaling? I wonder if something is causing a 0x scale.
Game runs and plays great. It gave me the same feelings as Crazy Taxi. Some sounds would've kept me more engaged, but I still enjoyed playing up to 1k in tips.
Though... I cheated a little bit... you can reverse just as fast as you can go forwards, reversing stops on a dime, and colliding with walls at an angle allows you to slide. With all those together, I racked up essentially unlimited time to play both modes.
I'm glad those mechanics were exploitable though, as my reaction time wasn't great with the zoom level of the game. If you continue to work on this after the jam, a GTA1/2 style zoom out with speed would be great!
Very fun game, dropped in and enjoyed it with 0 frustration-- very ufo50 levels of intuitive , thank you!
