He aint pregnant but, ya know...

Developer(+1)

Don't worry, he'll deliver sooner or later

Submitted(+2)

And deliver he did. What more can I say? All of this was absolutely amazing!! I genuinely really hope this gets in the collection; it's perfect for it.

Developer

Thank you so much, really appreciate it!

Submitted(+3)

This is just a fantastic game all around! An on top of that the voice line and video pitch are super hilarious. Great game, I hope you guys make it in the top submissions!

Developer

I'm glad you liked it, I tried to sound passable! lol

(+3)

Gem alert, however it'd be the best game ever if John Delivery himself showed up as a final boss
Alas... it's still #1 gem in our hearts...

Developer(+2)

We made it even better, he shows up in real life

Submitted(+3)

Fun game. Good job

Developer

Thank you, glad it was fun!

truck is very responsive. gameplay is very satisfying when executed skillfully. I'm like, honestly so impressed with how good the gameplay itself is. The drifting is so good. The timing difficulty is the most frustrating part, when you've done everything right and still miss the end by a second, but as super fun time anyway. Only made it up to level 6. Full marks all around. The only suggestion is (and maybe the mouse controls are intentionally difficult) I misclicked a few times or stumbled for the AC-- so some remapping for those could be nice QOL.

Developer

Thanks for the detailed review and thanks for playing up to stage 6! We're really glad you found most things awesome, yeah the being 1 second late thing has definitely happened to me too lol. And yeah I'd say stumbling around with the minigames is part of the experience, makes you take your eyes off the road and focus on the tasks.

What an interesting concept, it's crazy how hard it is to drive and flip a little switch lmao

Developer(+1)

Thanks, we were going to add zombies, a safe zone and package-throwing but we ran out of time

Submitted(+2)

John Delivery doesn't text while driving, he drives while texting. 

Developer

The texting drives John Delivery

Submitted(+1)

The drive texts John Delivery

Submitted(+2)

I really liked the driving, it felt very responsive. Man, oh man, did it get hard! This is why you don't text and drive, leave that to John Delivery.

Developer(+1)

John Delivery: Thanks pal.

Hey guys did you see John Delivery anywhere? I'm looking for him and I swear he was just here. Anyways thanks for playing the game, yeah it is kinda like texting and driving, which you shouldn't do kids.

Submitted(+2)

This game was really hard! The game felt really crisp and satisfying to play though. I got a good laugh at the voice line when you lose too

Developer(+1)

Heeey I'm just calling to check how you liked the game... wait what?... No, NO, NOOOO. Also yeah the difficulty might have officially become our most reoccuring feedback lol but glad to hear you liked how the game plays!

Submitted(+2)

This was a cool concept, its too hard for me, but I still had fun playing the game!! I don't like that the left and right control depends on the orientation of the car, my brain won't cooperate with such a scheme most of the time. ^-^

Developer

Yeah don't feel bad at all, the game is definitely difficult, we should've implemented different options for players to choose from depending how accustomed they are to games like this. Also yeah the driving is something else you might have to get used to if you're not that familiar with it. But we're glad you still enjoyed it despite these things!

Submitted(+2)

John do be deliverin' and he do be dancin'

No honestly though I really love this game and the sound design was really good. It has great gameplay and a good sprinkle of silliness. I really enjoyed the video submission as well.  Great job team you made peak

Developer

Wow thanks for the kind words, we're jumping up and down with arms in the air lol. But seriously we appreciate it a lot.

Orchestra hit my beloved

Level 3 was a wild difficulty spike, overstimulating in a good way, but still sent my brain flying in 12 different directions at once. Gotta respect it though, it's really challenging and I really enjoyed it, good stuff.

Developer(+1)

We're glad you enjoyed it, it sounds like the minigames did their job lol

Also the orchestra sfx would work really well with like a coin flipping based streak type of thing, might patent that idea later 

Submitted(+1)

not if i go back into the past like a month then convince myself to make that idea first

Developer(+1)

Yeah, sure, because that's WAIT HOW

Submitted(+3)

That pitch was amazing and the driving feels so good too!

Developer(+1)

Thanks, that midnight editing hit different lol also, glad you like the driving! 

Submitted(+2)

Real fun, very accurate to the delivery driver experience.

Developer(+1)

We're glad to hear that, personally we made it our mission to get into the mind of a delivery worker so we each signed off to be a delivery guy for 2.5 years. One person on our team accidentally put 25 years so they will not participate in the next game jam. 

Developer(+2)

Based on a true story...

Just when I was about to beat the 2nd simon says level, it crashed! This game is rigged!! Anyways, peak! I really enjoy how frantic it really is, even though I don’t think I even I got through like- half of it? It was still a blast!!

Developer(+1)

Yeah while playtesting we encountered too few crashes so we had to implement some. Jokes aside it's unfortunate that it crashed, but we're glad you still enjoyed it! There's an autosave feature that puts you right back at the start of the crashed level, in case you ever wanna revisit it, perhaps beat the game in chunks. And if it keeps crashing on that level, try getting rid of some enemies, it might help. (Guys that's a feature, trust) 

Developer(+2)

Thanks! Sorry for rigging your game. This was my first time doing 3D, so some atrocities were definitely committed.

Submitted(+3)

That pitch was perhaps the greatest piece of media I have ever seen ever

Developer

Guys the mind manipulation, it worked

(+1)

Hi, I enjoy playing this game, really love the design of the city and the movement of the vehicle, the music is relaxing. In order to further improve playability I would have a few suggestions:

- changeable difficulty level (old people like me needs more time :-) )

- gain scores, show highscores

- build in some missions, adventures instead of simple time attack

- ability to leave the vehicle and walk around with the driver, new minigame possibilities

All in all it is a really good fun and I believe there are huge potential in this game to further develop!

Keep it up guys!

But please change the "controls" screen to a less annoying one :-)

Developer(+1)

Hey! Those were definitely on the list, but we ran out of time a little bit hehe. You can actually still get out of the car and pick up boxes by pressing E, but with the time attack gameplay loop we settled on it kinda became a lost cause to ever do that lol.

Thanks!
