Anything you want to say to players before they play?
We know that you are lazy and want to play the game as soon as possible.
We are currently working on publishing a web version of the game, but until that is finished just download the exe you like(Hard vs Easy).
We recommend trying the easy first then going to the more difficult one.
It's up to you.
But if you want a challenge try to go for the Second one from the first try.
Let's see if you are a skilled mail man :)
Good luck.
Very Important : Try to charge for a longer time to get the accurate shot you want for the mail.
Game Keys :
The more you preload the better the mail will be thrown
WASD - to move
Space - jump
E - pickup
Right Click - to charge throw
Q /Tab/Esc - Pause menu

A funny and pretty well made game. I really love the voice over. It's too easy to avoid the obstetrical by standing in the right or left sides of the room. Overall a good and well made jam game. Well done.
Thank you for your feedback! The voice over is credited to Andrew, and it's quite funny to listen to.
You are right, you can avoid the box barrier if you go very far left/right. We should make the boxes cover the entire area
Hi, I just updated the game and posted a new build of the game(Harder version) that makes sure that the boxes pile up in a way that blocks the player to throw the boxes from the right/left sides of the room.
This one has a ton of personality to it! I liked the mounting challenges, and the game felt really good to play. Honestly I even think you could have lowered the time limits a bit, since I never felt too rushed. Also, loved the art style so awesome job to the 3D artists!
Hi thank you for your comment. The 3D artisits really did a good work :). As a game improvement I will try to decrease the time limit by15 seconds for each level.
Also the timer should be on the ui all the time because the boxes sometimes restricted the timer view.
I Updated the game jam submission(Hard Version) and Included a more "rushed" version of the game by decreasing the time limit for each level and making more boxes spawn :). I hope you will enjoy the new improvements. Let me know what you think.
The music has also changed to match the new game submission using a nice rock song.
HeroRobb Thank you for you kind words. I agree that the boxes spawned a little too fast would it be better if we lowered the spawn interval?
This felt very polished and fun. The banana peels were a real pain lol I'd usually slip on a second one on purpose just to get the controls back to normal. All in all, the only issue I really had was that if the boxes piled up too much, the mail wouldn't really shove them out of the way, but there was always the standard issue dynamite (I laughed out loud at that) to use.
Thank you so much for your feedback! :D
