CONTROLS

  • R to reset from checkpoint

on ground: - arrow keys to move - z to jump - x to boost

in air: - arrow keys to rotate car - z to jump - x to boost

NOTES: - controls, specifically that R is reset for softlocks/bugs - game is kinda unfairly hard - pressing jump twice really fast gives good height - momentum is conserved so getting some speed before jumping gives distance - you can only rotate your car in air - last jump is really hard, requires really high precision, or a ground boosted jump - can only use one of either boost type when in the air

I'm intrigued by the name, but unfortunately it seems the itch.io link is broken :(

Shoutout to Bepis and the art in the intro. However, the game might be a bit bugged though as the distance number keeps decreasing even though I wasn't making any progress through the map.

Nice take on the driving delivery theme. The music is great and adds to the tension but boy is the game hard. I like how the game conveys the entire premise through a few stylish images without the need for any text.

Initially didn't understand that you had to angle the car midair to get a good midair boost, but once I understood that I started having a lot of fun. I wish there was more! Nice job.

haha such a funny concept

I m guessing I did not prevent the explosion... silly delivery guy haha

got one critique re level design, it is hard to see where you are going, but I guess a trial and error path is compensated by how quick you restart and move

Those cutscenes were phenomenal - the gameplay was surprisingly fun, despite being frustrating at times. I mean this in the best way possible, but it honestly feels like a rage game - the controls are difficult to master but incredibly satisfying when you get it right, great submission!

I loved the cutscene haha ! Very nice art. The controls are goods, i felt powerful driving this crazy car :'D
Good job !

the cut scene is marvelous, begging the question "to whom do they deliver bombs?" with no dialog is excellent. controlling the car is wild. and i think you should have drawn the car/ boxes as well! nice work.

The cut scene at the start is great, and controlling an exploding car was very fun. I did find the load of boxes lagged my laptop a little, and the jumps got quite hard, but it was a fun play overall. Cool stuff!

Haha, it so stupid, I love it!
Really do like the humor and the artstyle.

Like you mentioned on your itch.io page, it is really hard to beat.
The controlls were a little but unpredictable.

But overall, nice and fun game!

Oh the controls are not easy to get into but when you do some stuff becomes quite satisfying. But still, it's a bit too harddd. I got to the place where you have to do a tall vertical jump twice in a row and that was just pure hell. I mean the game looks like you're in hell anyway haha.

The beginning sequence is really cool. I wonder though why the hell would you have bombs in a pizzeria :^)

Anyway, great job!
