Hi! First we'd like to thank you for all the feedback so far, we appreciate it a lot!
Now, our goal with this patch was to address some of the complaints, as well as fulfilling our initial vision for the project. We think it turned out well! The patch notes can be found in the description.
also here's a gif
Welcome to Generic Postal Service!
Your job is to fill the trucks with boxes in time without damaging them too much, so do your job well or you will face the consequences of your actions... But don't worry I am sure you will do just fine! ...probably.
So get to work right now!!
He is one of the many employees of Generic Postal Service. His job? Working in the warehouse tirelessly filling trucks with packages
But there's one thing that sets him apart from everyone else. He wants to impress his boss John Generic so he can get some extra cash by Friday. To get there, he will have to go trough a hard week of packing trucks with a moderate amount of property destruction.
So your task is to help him pack as may poxes as possible in a short amount of time without damaging too many, or else the stress of failure may just kill you...
But no pressure!
Try to get one of the 3 endings based on your performance
Also remember to stay hydrated!
We'd appreciate if you could try our game and rate it!
Everyone, with worry in their voice, said "Aw man, tomorrow's the last day to rate games for the jam!"
But then The Guy, confident as usual, immediately replied "don't worry, everything will be fine because Payment Comes on Friday!" Boom, epic title drop :writing_hand: :fire:
AHEM, either way...
You should get to work right now because there's only 24 hours left! tell us what ending you got and leave a rating!
I just wanted to to take a moment to thank all of you for playing our game!
Some of my friends on the team have prior experience with game jams, but speaking from my personal perspective, this has been a incredibly fun first experience! We are super thankful for your feedback and kind words! It means a lot for me that you enjoyed the game as someone who is passionate about becoming an indie dev! I am especially happy that the visuals were so liked! Me, and the other artists have worked hard to make them as good as they are in the time we had
I am definitely looking forward to participate in future jams! I'll see you in the next one
As for the game itself we are considering turning it into a full game, with a ton more content more content and some interesting little twists :wink:

Here's a sneak peek into ideas we've been tossing around for future content:
A linking mechanic that allows the player to create formations and move them around all a once

We just wanted to let you that we have a post-jam build out! We hope you enjoy playing it as much as we enjoyed making it.
We were careful to take as much feedback into account as possible while making this patch;
We've improved visibility and distinguishability of objects, implemented a tutorial for new players,
and added more sound effects to match the gameplay.
The troops have been rebalanced and there are also a few new enemies to check out!

This is our 2nd time participating in Ludum Dare and this experience taught us a lot. While I wish we would have gotten a lot more done in the jam version, we managed to improve a lot compered to first time. We had a far more complete and polished game this time and we had a ton of fun along the way.
I am very proud of the team and they were able to do, I am glad that I had the occasion to work with both new and old members I wouldn't otherwise have the occasion to, they are all very talented
I am also incredibly happy that people are really liking the art direction. I have made an effort to make something more fun looking and stylized this time so it's amazing seeing that it has paid off
the feedback we received on the game has overwhelmingly positive. we tried to incorporate each of your suggestions in our post jam game. We are always interested in improving and perfecting our craft We are very thankful for each kind comment you left! We appreciate all of it and we hope you had as much fun playing the game as we had making it.
We also got to play so many games from talented devs, it has been an absolute joy getting to experience some of these amazing entries that managed to be very creative even if the theme this time may have been a bit lacking
We hope to participate in the next Ludum Dare, hopefully with a even better game! See you then!

After getting some rest and working on improving the game page, I feel ready to spread the word about our game
It's a chaotic endless vertical grappling hook platformer where you play as Scroob, a tiny frog trying to escape from the flood. The goal is to get a high score. The score is tracked based on the distance from the water
The art was made entirely by me and I am very happy with how it all turned out. i am also happy with the game itself as it has very little compromises this time.
You can can check it here
Step 1: Acquire grappling hook
Step 2: Climb to the top
Step 3: Avoid the annoying bees
Step 4: Don't fall in the water
Step 5: Invest in Greencoin
Congrats: Now you know how to grapple with your problems efficiently! The only thing left for you to do is to play our game https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/56/small-problems-to-grapple-with
In this game everything is made out of paper or some other type of material. We thought it would be a fun to go for a collage type of aesthetic this time. With some digital art, layer effects, and digital editing to get the textures, I managed to get the look I was looking for.
My goal is to always approach a different artstyle for each game I make
Some concept stuff:
