Crazy Court Summons!

Some crazy Royal Mail driver has gone completely postal, smashing their van into everything in the town and scattering all of the deliveries everywhere! Today's court summons papers were in that van, and we need someone to collect and deliver them to their eager recipients. We're on a tight time limit here, so don't go faffing around town like its a lazy Sunday afternoon! You'll be paid for each one, and you'll get a bonus for speedy delivery. Don't let me down!

Collect the summons, and deliver them quickly. Try to complete the deliveries before the time runs out!

Very fun experience, simple game mechanics but fun to play. The graphics are a little too shaky to make me dizzy though

Thanks for playing @hongqianh and thanks for the feedback :) We've adjusted the camera so it doesn't lurch around so extremely anymore, we don't want anyone to feel sick or dizzy playing our game! :heart:

I wasn't able to finish because I clipped through the map (and an NPC was there too apparently lol) but I had a lot of fun ! The sounds where a bit annoying though, but other than that I had a great time destroying street lamps uhhh delivering mail I mean

A very solid and complete game. The gameplay is a little lacking in development, but the physics are well designed for such a short development period. The car does not drive backwards well and freezes, but I did not find any critical bugs. Good job!

This is really great. I had a lot of fun with it, and there's lots to it. My only gripe is that I'd love to have a map. I loved the low poly, low texture graphics. The car handles well in a fun kinda way, and the audio wasn't annoying as it can be in driving games. Excellent entry all round. Good stuff :8ball:

Probably the most unique take on the theme. Too bad I got stuck and I got dissed for it :(

Layout problem prevent me to see the key for backward switch. Never find out the key.

But driving this mad physic car is very fun.
It reminds me the old ps1 games

Love the graphical style, and it's a nice solid game!
I thought the car was a little hard to control, and having to switch between reverse and forward was a little finicky. But overall really good, nice work!

At first I wanted a mini-map, but I kinda liked having to take a chance with which direction to take.

Strangely, in order to back up I had to repeatedly press the down arrow - holding didn't seem to do anything.

Some decent fun and a unique take on the theme!

Very fun to play, it reminded me of The Simpsons Hit & Run game. There are a couple of times I've gone off the map due to speed but it's a lot of fun to go fast and crash into things.

totally awesome!
I like the style and the theme, it would be even cooler if you had some rocking soundtrack in the stereo!

Car games for the win! I loved the physics - delightfully wobbly.

This takes me back to the days with Crazy Taxi on my PS2 :) I had a lot of fun playing it! Great job!

Very fun and I like how some of the cars try to hit you. Love the jamaican voice and the graphics are so retro.

Thank you so much for the feedback, everyone! It's amazing to hear folks are having fun :smile:

Apologies to anyone who had a hard time finishing the game either due to difficulty or bugs. We didn't do as much play testing as we would have liked due to the game being rather ambitious for 3 amateur devs.

Given a bit more time, we definitely would have done more to prevent escaping the level and ensuring that everyone can at least finish. Other polish would have included improved handling and general feedback for what's happening ie. changing gears, and UI/menu improvements. Also I think showing the controls after you press play would have probably helped since some didn't realise there's a reset/reverse key :sweat_smile:

The car physics feel really nice, like it actually has a suspension. It's awesome to be able to break things and send cars flying when you hit them. Using the W key to drive backwards when in reverse wasn't intuitive though. Love the pixelated art style. Great job!
