I love the creative ways the achivements pushed me to use the seemingly one-note mechanics! The overall feel is very charming and this was a fun time. Although, I can't seem to get that second achievement...


@hacksawunit Thanks so much for checking it out! 10.3m is way longer than my best!

It's the first game I have made with achievements, and I wanted to see if they could help drive someone to try new things in a very simple game. Really, I was trying to get just what you said you experienced: use a simple thing to bring some delight to the player. I'm so happy you shared your story here. If I had a bit more time, I would have added some achievements around spinning the package in different ways and bouncing it around like a hacky sack, but I ran out of steam.

The trick to that second achievement is to get the package to land somewhere besides the ground. It requires some finesse but is very funny when it happens.

Funny game that I really like I could only get to somewhere in 4, also I managed to get the package on my foot and
just have it bob back in forth

I like it!


This one _really_ sucked me in! Took a bit of doing, but I finally got it over the 10m mark, and got all the achievements. Top marks for humour, and there are loads of nice touches, like the delivery man's facial expressions. Great stuff!

Thanks, everybody!

@equalenergy I really wanted to try to detect the "catch and bounce" move as an achievement, but I ran out of time. One of my boy spent a lot of time with it trying to figure out different ways to balance and manipulate it

@john-gabriel A new high score!


Am I winning?

@rustywolf It only makes sense to compete in the other direction as well :) I just hope I extended the ground's static body far enough that way...

Lmao, love this game! Such a goofy and fun time!

I love the qwop style mechanics! wish I could use my keyboard for it, but it made me laugh anyways

@rubentipparach You can! Sorry, it's not a documented feature in the game, but you can use Space to kick and Enter to drop. I put a note in the description above, but it's easy to miss. I definitely prefer the keyboard controls.

I spent an hour or so tinkering with knee mechanics to try to make it more qwoppy, but I ended up liking the straight-leg system better... and that already worked, so I could get on to other parts of the game.

@pvg my bad lol, I didn't spend enough time reading your notes. I'm actually gonna play it some more with the keyboard controls now!

My favorite thing about this game is the attention to the music! I love how it starts out being suspenseful before dropping the parcel followed by changing the music track depending on how far the box was clicked. It really added to the polish of the game and made it funnier too!

Thanks @ddesigndude! The music was a lot of fun. When I first put in the string tritones transitioning to the accordion polka, I laughed out loud myself. I'm glad you noticed this detail; I'm rather proud of it.

It's so frustrating that I find myself retrying over and over again.
The attention to detail in the graphics and sound is palpable, and I especially appreciated the clever transitions in the sound, which I felt accurately represented the player's emotions. It makes me smile as I play.
Awesome :)

Adding achievements is so cool. i played to your game until i get them all !

@zundou Thanks for checking it out! I had a lot of fun with the audio.

@fabonacci I am glad you appreciate the achievements! It was my first time incorporating them into any game, let alone a jam game. I'm really pleased with how they turned out.
