Really fun and satisfying controls. Art was really nice and the little squeaks were a nice touch

The controls were very nice! As well as the art and sound. But was the game just about bringing 50 pizzas across the same very long level? After almost 10 minutes I hadn't reached 20 delivered pizzas and the game changed only the amount of slices per round. The idea of "Best time" goes well with levels that take a short amount of time. The core is fun to make some kind of quirky delivery physics based game, but the level that is in the game right now doesn't use the potential of the system at its fullest.

Really cute little game! I like the overall feel and premise of the game, I do feel that having to climb back up thhe stairs might be abit tedious but fantastic still :D

Probably the best rat pizza delivery boy game I've ever played ! The game feels pretty nice, and I loved it when the jump started glitching because I was holding a piece of cheese and I started to rocket towards the ceiling ! :laughing:

Good job !

Nice little game we got here :D I really enjoyed the rat physic and the concept. Art & SFX are efficient :) Really funny to had the possibility to deliver like in Super Mario 64, with the lower body of our character :p Maybe 50 pizzas are a too high number because after the 6th round of delivery, it become a little bit boring, i quit ahah
See you next time !

Very cute little game. Love all the sprites/artwork, it has a really 90's nickelodeon/cartoon vibe which is very endearing. The sound effects from the mouse add a lot and the little background music is a good choice.

Love the smooth rotations on the rat! Game loop is a little too samey, perhaps a fun challenge could be different shaped foods which would provide different kinds of challenges. Or perhaps each level is a different food type and placement of where you have to deliver it.

Either way solid entry, good job!

I uploaded our gameplay of your game on youtube, you can find it here: https://www.youtube.be/watch?v=1F0Ywiy2Mt8&t=15568s

Thanks for being part of the stream, it was amazing! :smile: I hope we didn't ruin your cooking!

The graphics looks very good, I really enjoy the details you added to every single sprite. The texture change on the platforms, the cheese waves on the pizza slices, etc. It's sooooo cute!

The game-loop is fun at the beginning but become repetitive after a few trips. I believe this could be improved just by reducing a bit the weight of each pizza slides so it would be easier to push more of them at a time. Sometimes I just wanted to have a huge stack of pizza and see them make a pizza avalanche.

But overall, very cool entry! The best entry with snails so far :smile_cat:

[Thanks for submitting your game to the stream!](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1007626304?t=02h08m00s)

This one was a super fun one to mess around with. :smile: The escalating pizzalanche was super satisfying to pull off, and the entire premise itself was absurd and hilarious.

I can't say I *completely* understood how the character moved (how I managed to launch myself so high sometimes, for example), but weirdly that added to the chaos and fun of the game. :sweat_smile:

Long Live Lucky Lefty! :snail:
