A super interesting concept! I like the idea of controlling a drone delivery in a small town. I do have a few suggestions, one is to make the timer visible, because currently it feels like you just fail out of nowhere. Also, the controls for the drone were very frustrating. I know this is partially intentional, but it made it feel like I was not responsible for my own failure. I do like your art style, and this game feels like it has a lot of potential!

Nice low poly style!
The game is a little quiet and has strange controls. It was also a bit of a surprise that there were 2 post offices in town? :D Could not find any packages at first, but then they appeared.
Keep it up!

This is a potentially fun game, but I had a hard time picking up the packages, and the time limit was quite unforgiving. I think if you'd had a certain radius around the packages where you just need to fly through to pick them up it would help, or a longer time limit. Nevertheless I managed to deliver some packages and in the end still had some fun. Well done!

The steering is very neat. A small tilt would have rounded off the flight. I also like that the arrow marks the location. What I don't quite understand is when exactly you are game over. Presumably when the time runs out? Unfortunately I couldn't see a countdown. But all in all, it's very neat. The camera and controls felt dynamic.

I struggled to get a package delivered in the short timeout, which was a little frustrating trying to get started. Potentially could develop into something really fun :)

Ran into a bug where the second package didn't seem to spawn. Congrats on getting a jam game done, though!

Smooth movement and clean aesthetic. The main gameplay fits with the theme. You made a solid entry which must be improved because of bugs, but it is good enought. Thank you. I wish you the best ++

Cool, someone made a Demolition Man Mission from Vice City a standalone game))

Nice idea! A few small critiques—I think making the flight controls a little more responsive would've made it more fun to fly around. I also couldn't find a second package after delivering the first—I flew to the front of both post offices and found nothing.

I like the visual style is pretty nice. Only a single package was spawning for me. The controls seemed pretty intuitive, but it would have been nice to have a bit of simple animation on the drone such as tilting based on its acceleration.
