The ice cream theme with the music make it seem relaxing but i got really often close to barely make a day.
I enjoyed this game, I did get mixed up with the purple ice cream and the chocolate one at one point, I wished there was a way for me to restart the ice cream instead of being forced to serve an incorrect flavour... even if there was a penalty for restarting it.
I thought the art style was very cute and as others have said, made me very nostalgic of flash games I would play as a kid.
I enjoyed it enough to play it multiple times, so great job!
Nice art on the ice cream screen and title! I think the map looks like a different style. Speaking of the map, I thought it was really fun how you can plow through neighbor's yards for shortcuts, haha. For some reason I had a hard time maneuvering the van, but I think that's just me getting turned around and forgetting which button to press to turn whatever direction I'm facing.
I noticed after the end of each day, you can still drive the van around and go to a house to start an order, essentially prepping your next order for the next morning. Other than that, I didn't find any other bugs! Good job! Like many of the other players, I'll probably be humming the ice cream song around my house for a while.
