Description

You have been slighted by the Package Delivery Service one too many times! So what do you do? Decide to mess with other people's orders of course!

Play as the Porch Pirating Ninja where you take people's packages and deliver them to other people's houses based on the color of the tape. Envelopes will go into the mailboxes. Make sure to avoid the gaze of the residents! Once you hit 100 points of suspicion, it is game over for you. Hit the residents with either packages or envelopes to throw them off your trail!

Had a lot of fun throwing people over fences and trying to trick shot the packages to their destination! Very satisfying.

interesting concept. suspicion meter was partially off the screen so I couldn't keep track of that very well. also it would be nice to have a visual indicator of who the suspicious person is that I need to knock out.

Quirky stuff. I like it. The whistle kinda got to me, though... At some point, I just wanted to hit the residents with boxes and forget about the objective.

I really like this concept! The idea of being a stealth/vigilante mailman is pretty funny and leads to some fun sneaking and the choice between staying hidden and bonking someone with a box. The suspicion meter is a good mechanic and I like how it's lenient enough to let you escape after getting spotted, and allows you to learn and experiment a bit before you get a gameover. I also really like the random package/letter spawning and the easily-identifiable neighborhood quadrants. This is a great jam game that's scoped really well and fun to play immediately. Nice job!

My best score is 80, I like how the pedestrians always stops in sideration by seeing someone carrying a package or a letter.

Great idea for the jam, cool spin on "Delivery" having us basically un-deliver mail and send it to the wrong place. Fun game too!

Little odd that people can see through buildings to continue to be suspicious of you, but fun throwing stuff around.

I have a 1366x768 monitor and text was getting cut off.

Overall though I like this game concept. It was a little frustrating not being able to see a guy coming and them just standing there until the end of time after they see you. I would love to see it be possible to lower their suspicion by waiting but having a secondary lose condition if I take too long or something like that. If there were multiple routes I could take it would be less of a concern but I always get busted in the middle which I NEED to cross through to get from the green and yellow houses to the red and blue houses. Alternatively having some sort of way to pass without alerting suspicion would be nice.
