I really tried to complete the level but once i saw those birds i knew i was done, doing the entire level in one go is already a challenge and the time constraint multiplies that challenge, despite the looks it's quite hardcore, had a lot of fun tho, i know it might be against the idea you had for the game but i feel like some checkpoints like celeste and a faster game over might make the game flow faster, still a very nice game.

Hey Anfi! Glad that you enjoyed my game! Yeah, I really designed this game to be less challenging than my previous game jam entry, Owlet and the Biscuit Tower, as to where playtesting in that game, I died countless times, and I really made Delivery Berrie less of a challenge because I introduced a small area between the boat and the grass as a little practice area for people to learn and get used to the controls before the challenge. Also, during development of the game, at one point I decided to add a checkpoint halfway through the game before players get to the factory section, but then I decided that adding a checkpoint in the game will ruin the fast-paced ness of the game, since you’re really rushing to the end in one go. Also, the controls are listed at the bottom, and the game will gradually get more difficult as you move on. Oh, and I was also going to add a moving truck section, to where Berrie gets on a moving truck and dodges homecoming missiles, but not only was that too ambitious, but that would probably be too much considering some people might not be good at platformers. So, I scrapped the truck idea and decided to add numerous birds (They’re called Flappies, by the way) near the end of the game, and platforms for players who need to time their jumps correctly. So yeah, it may be more difficult for you, but for me, it’s WAY easier than Owlet and the Biscuit Tower.
Still, I’m very much glad you enjoyed Delivery Berrie, and still called it a very nice game! ❤️❤️❤️
