It's of course super easy to manipulate but hey it's a singleplayer game so who wants to shortcut ... have fun :smile: \n\nGraphically there is not much to see. But I spent some time on the CSS animations, their triggers and cleaning up. There is also a mini story in this game that I do not want to spoil. If you play a little longer you will find it. Don't expect too much but for some time during which you can make numbers bigger it's enough... and yes it has an end :D\n\n![delivery-corp-screenshot2.png](\/\/\/raw\/482\/2\/z\/584e8.png)\n\n## How to play\n - Scale your company by hiring more and more staff\u200b\n - Research new methods to keep your growth rate and profit in balance\n - Tip: Think about the synergy effects to make the numbers go Brrrrrr\u200b\n - Tip: The numbers will grow even if the tab is not in the foreground but the application must be running it will not continue to calculate during 'offline' time.\n - Tip: Always read the latest company news that run through the window above","title":"Delivery Corp.","wayback_recovered":true,"wayback_source":{"capture":{"original":"https:\/\/api-jam.ludumdare.com\/vx\/node2\/get\/361001+361002+361003+361004+361005+361006+361007+361008+361009+361010+361011+361012+361013+361014+361015+361016+361017+361018+361019+361020+361021+361022+361023+361024+361025+361026+361027+361028+361029+361030+361031+361032+361033+361034+361035+361036+361037+361038+361039+361040+361041+361042+361043+361044+361045+361046+361047+361048+361049+361050+361051+361052+361053+361054+361055+361056+361057+361058+361059+361060+361061+361062+361063+361064+361065+361066+361067+361068+361069+361070+361071+361072+361073+361074+361075+361076+361077+361078+361079+361080+361081+361082+361083+361084+361085+361086+361087+361088+361089+361090+361091+361092+361093+361094+361095+361096+361097+361098+361099+361100+361101+361102+361103+361104+361105+361106+361107+361108+361109+361110+361111+361112+361113+361114+361115+361116+361117+361118+361119+361120+361121+361122+361123+361124+361125+361126+361127+361128+361129+361130+361131+361132+361133+361134+361135+361136+361137+361138+361139+361140+361141+361142+361143+361144+361145+361146+361147+361148+361149+361150+361151+361152+361153+361154+361155+361156+361157+361158+361159+361160+361161+361162+361163+361164+361165+361166+361167+361168+361169+361170+361171+361172+361173+361174+361175+361176+361177+361178+361179+361180+361181+361182+361183+361184+361185+361186+361187+361188+361189+361190+361191+361192+361193+361194+361195+361196+361197+361198+361199+361200+361201+361202+361203+361204+361205+361206+361207+361208+361209+361210+361211+361212+361213+361214+361215+361216+361217+361218+361219+361220+361221+361222+361223+361224+361225+361226+361227+361228+361229+361230+361231+361232+361233+361234+361235+361236+361237+361238+361239+361240+361241+361242+361243+361244+361245+361246+361247+361248+361249+361250+361251+361252+361253+361254+361255+361256+361257+361258+361259+361260+361261+361262+361263+361264+361265+361266+361267+361268+361269+361270+361271+361272+361273+361274+361275+361276+361277+361278+361279+361280+361281+361282+361283+361284+361285+361286+361287+361288+361289+361290+361291+361292+361293+361294+361295+361296+361297+361298+361299+361300+361301+361302+361303+361304+361305+361306+361307+361308+361309+361310+361311+361312+361313+361314+361315+361316+361317+361318+361319+361320+361321+361322+361323+361324+361325+361326+361327+361328+361329+361330+361331+361332+361333+361334+361335+361336+361337+361338+361339+361340+361341+361342+361343+361344+361345+361346+361347+361348+361349+361350+361351+361352+361353+361354+361355+361356+361357+361358+361359+361360+361361+361362+361363+361364+361365+361366+361367+361368+361369+361370+361371+361372+361373+361374+361375+361376+361377+361378+361379+361380+361381+361382+361383+361384+361385+361386+361387+361388+361389+361390+361391+361392+361393+361394+361395+361396+361397+361398+361399+361400+361401+361402+361403+361404+361405+361406+361407+361408+361409+361410+361411+361412+361413+361414+361415+361416+361417+361418+361419+361420+361421+361422+361423+361424+361425+361426+361427+361428+361429+361430+361431+361432+361433+361434+361435+361436+361437+361438+361439+361440+361441+361442+361443+361444+361445+361446+361447+361448+361449+361450+361451+361452+361453+361454+361455+361456+361457+361458+361459+361460+361461+361462+361463+361464+361465+361466+361467+361468+361469+361470+361471+361472+361473+361474+361475+361476+361477+361478+361479+361480+361481+361482+361483+361484+361485+361486+361487+361488+361489+361490+361491+361492+361493+361494+361495+361496+361497+361498+361499+361500?authors&parents&superparent"},"object":"objects\/sha256\/0c\/0c17a8271dd560db2faa5ed2cc229a9b3bf7388e0421964f023f72bcf05c76a4","record":"shard-2\/json-live-urgent-v3\/records\/26826371eaaad63ede7faf4e2a31db421b650aa3526724f16ef10cdac5ac9e1c.json","sha256":"0c17a8271dd560db2faa5ed2cc229a9b3bf7388e0421964f023f72bcf05c76a4","source":"https","stored_at":1784022469}}
