Parcel Panic by icch_howw
Greetings!
I am looking for a new employee to help fill delivery trucks with all sorts of parcels. Do you think you have the necessary knowledge and skill to take the job? This is an entry level job that requires 10 years of experience and a master's degree in science.
Benefits include:
- Almost half of minimum wage
- 12 hour days, 7 days a week
- 3 minute breaks every 4 hours
- Occasionally you can experience how it feels to be close to a bomb explosion
How to play
The game contains a "How to play" section in the main menu, but the basic gist of it is:
Drag parcels from the facility into the delivery truck or shred them if they don't have a label. Make sure to send the truck on it's way before any of the parcels expire and be especially careful of bomb parcels. We should probably report those to the authorities, but if they are not within our facility anymore, they are not our problem anymore ;)
Controls
- Left mouse button to drag parcels around
- Mouse scroll or Q+E to rotate the grabbed parcel
Just chillin' with the parcels
Ohhh that's how that works!
Gotta shred them
Something exploded over there, hope I wasn't responsible
Aww shucks

Sending out bombs hahah and hate the big package. If you pick up a package you have to do something with that package would be great if you can put it back or is that a design choice.
Ok played it to long :)
I feel soo bad for the trucks that were forced to mail the pipebombs for their victims lol
The graphics and menus are clean, the mood and humor is definitely there, and the mechanics are clever. Well done!
At first I thought it was like Tetris and didn't send the truck away, then I read the description once again and got this score:
Cool idea!
Good job on this solo entry!
Well done!
I was a bit confused by the package bombs, they seemed a bit unnecessary. At first I thought that I was supposed to shred them, but it seems like they're the same as regular packages? Because it's a bomb with an explosion, I thought there would be some negative effect, but I could never figure out what it was.
I also think that the pace of trucks returning is fast enough that I never really did anything tetris-like with the space. If the packages had a longer expiration, and the trucks were really slow to return, I think that would encourage more play where I would try and pack a truck as full as I could. The way it is right now, things move so fast (and the truck returns so fast) that it seemed more about how fast I could drag boxes into the truck and hit go, even when the truck was mostly empty.
