made by gustav for LD33 (JAM)
You are the mail monster, pick up the mail without ruining the whole town! (You get a time penalty if you happen to destroy anything)

ARROWS TO MOVE+C TO JUMP

My best score yet is 124 seconds (only 2 tries because of sleep deprivation :), try to beat that!

When I realized there was a jump button it became waaay more fun! :D stomp stomp stomp
Sometimes I couldn't control where I was going though, or I would only jump a little and I didn't know why.
Good game though very cute.

Love the feel of this. Great work on building an entire sanboxed city in the timeframe. I found all the mail in 238 seconds.

Haha, really fun. I loved his upbeat attitude. Would have been cool to be able to walk on buildings, since they looked so rectangular and inviting.

Another game about mail! I see competition is heating up in this new genre. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

My score was 152:17, I accidentally slammed into some cars on the way and got confused about the final mailbox tho. The graphics are cute as hell, and the traffic simulation is easily the best thing I've seen this ludum dare. Well done.

Was a little disappointed when I landed on a building and it didn't break. :(

Seriously, the traffic simulation, the size of the city, the details... Awesome game.

Thanks for the kind words everyone! I haven't had the time to play any other LD games yet but I definitely will, so sorry if I can't comment on your creations yet.

@Rhys: Hehe, yea. Your game looks awesome as well! A delivery/pickup theme was the easiest way to gamify my simulation without too much effort. And yeah, I would have loved more destructible objects! But I didn't plan the weekend very well this time around and was out of time.

I got 146. The graphics and environment are so great! It is a lot of fun moving around in the city. I couldn't seem to control the jump height, though I enjoyed jumping and smashing things.
