hey you used a http instead of https link for your download, this gives security warnings when downloading your game.
you should fix that!

That music is so upbeat. It just makes me happy to be walking along and delivering a parcel. Even when I get attacked by a dog.

I like the background music. I feel like the timer is a bit too generous.

Thank you, @the3rdhunter , @jsmitq! The music was a keygen song, from [Abundant Music](https://pernyblom.github.io/abundant-music/index.html); converted to ogg format, which sounded *way* better than the original midi.

I agree about the countdown timer, although the timer doesn't even have a bearing on the player score. It was a feature I skipped due to rushing Sunday.

Love the sprites and the colors! Game is very chill and could be a bit more hectic. Still nice idea!

Nice game, the atmosphere feels very calm and peaceful even though you're on a timer. The music is lovely! Two notes:
- I think the camera movement should be the other way around; when moving you should see 2/3 of the screen in front of you.
- Having the player animation move his sprite back and forth while the actual player object moves forward makes his movements look a bit jittery.

@jakobthequizguy thanks for your detailed feedback. I wasted a lot of time failing at the golden ratio for the screen and, as you pointed out, that shows on screen.
