Hey baka!
It seems that you were hit by a car and died on the spot. Too bad. To make matters worse, heaven is full, and the only way out of limbo is through winning the heart of a cute anime girl. Thankfully, there are 3 such girls who live in the limbo world, and they all need something - their lost packages.
Find and deliver all of their packages to them and in exchange they will bring you back to life (and love you forever). What are you waiting for? Time is running out!
- God




Controls: - [WASD] to drive - [Tab] to pause - [E] to deliver packages

I think the toughest part for me was that it was possible to get a "dud" delivery package where you've already filled someone's meter, but the package you pick up is for that person (and hence won't have any effect). So. you have to go all the way to their place and drop off the extra package in order to be able to pick up a new one. That made it very tough to get all of the meters full on a single run (especially if you start getting panicked and crash your car once you start rushing)!
Overall though, I love the vibe of the game, I love the music, and the game had me captivated for quite a while. Great work!
The control of the car is not very good but maybe is because of the frame rate on my laptop.
That remind me a lot of japanese game with car, and mix delivery game with visual novel element works very well.
Next time, to increase the mood think to put some sound like car engine, accident sound, sound for dialogs etc....you can easily find sound free and you have had already opt out the audio category.
You made an amazing job in a short time ! Congrats to the team !
As something of a racing game player, I would've hoped for a bit more top speed, and a handbrake button for those tight corners, but I'm honestly impressed you got the car controls to feel this good in such a short time in the first place, and the reverse 180s were very easy and satisfying to pull at least.
I was literally 2 seconds away from getting max hearts on all three, which was quite intense. It was a little too much down to chance whether you'd pick up a package for the right person, so being able to drop a package instead of having to deliver it would've been nice.
Overall, it was a really fun experience! Great work, can't wait to see what you'll do next jam!
Managed to 100% the game (not that it was easy!)
Positives:
- A lot of time was spent on the art which turned out really well
- Everything felt pretty cohesive
- Map had a lot of care put into it and it was fun learning the way around it
Few points of critique:
- The way the minimap doesn't rotate with the car can be really disorienting. It might've also benefitted from being zoomed out a bit
- Getting 100% was very reliant on luck since you can still get packages for girls you've already made love you. I got 6 Demon girl packages in a row once! Something to counteract this would've been nice
- Level felt a bit cramped at times
- Just the act of driving could've been made more interesting
Overall it was a pleasant experience and the presentation was nice, with some room for improvement (as there always is). Well done!
- The 2D art is very pretty and well done. Love the character design for Lexi :)
- The cherry blossoms made it such a treat to drive around the town. Great job making a cute little town to drive around in!
- The sticker on the car after you restart is a nice touch.
Things that could've been better:
- I wish I could've been able to make more meaningful choices in this game. For example, I can't even pick which route I want to go after because I can't see what gift is inside the box until I pick it up. Once I pick it up, I can't put it back down.
- Driving wasn't really fun and felt tedious to do. I felt pressure to keep playing in order to fill up a meter and see the ending after 10 minutes, not really because the game was fun to play.
