Chaos Courier by ColeHorvat

[raw]
made by ColeHorvat for Ludum Dare 53 (JAM)

​It's the year 19XX, and office jobs are on the rise, especially for Niagara Falls company Arcane Vestments. But alas, they have fallen for the same old trick and awakened the old god slumbering beneath Niagara Falls. The old god's gift to the world was to remake Niagara Falls, transforming it into an otherworldly cascade that pierced into the sky and stretched into space, its mist tinged with a vibrant orange glow. It is now your job as Cliff, Postal Specialist, to ensure that the mail arrives on time and undamaged. Mailboxes have been placed along the highway to ensure easy access, and customers are gracious, often providing gun upgrades as a reward. However, be warned that rumors suggest the CEO of Arcane Vestments, the man responsible for awakening the Old God, is roaming the area to put a stop to unregulated deliveries. Rain, shine, or cultists, no one is ruining Cliff's perfect career.

Nice one. My best score is about 5km. I like the improvement system, but it seems that the "ammo +" upgrade does not increase my ammo... I really enjoyed the music and the difficulty setting ;).
