You are the new delivery boy of Cesarino's Friendly Interplanetary Delivery Service.
Carry out the company's deliveries while ramming and shooting down the
competition's delivery ships.

Visit any planet with a ring to accept a delivery mission. The laser cannon will be
unlocked when you reach level 2. The goal of the game is to reach level 8.

IMPORTANT

If you have a low frame rate or the game feels sluggish, try playing the game
in another browser.

NOTES

I wanted to submit this game for the compo, but I ran out of time. I had planned
several features which would have made the gameplay more varied. But I didn't
get around to implement them, so the game might be a bit monotonous.

The game complies with compo rules, with the exception that I submitted it
within 72 hours.

If you can't hear anything, don't worry. There is no sound. ;)

It's so fun bumping into things, especially after upgrading your engine. Nice gamplay and funny physics.

Reminds me of Solar 2. Really liked the parallax stars.

That was really fun. And the physics made the game kind of comedic (in a good way) -- all the bumping into planets and what not. That's not to say the controls aren't tight; they certainly are.

More variety would be nice, however. But considering the goal is only to reach level 8, the game doesn't really overstays its welcome.

Even better than Gravity the movie! Beautiful design! The color of the planets and the details of the spaceships are great. Fun to play! Liked the sky with the planets slowing down when you stop accelerating. Friendly goal transporting load from planet to planet. Fun to stir between other spaceships, trying not to bump into them! I felt the infinity and darkness of space after playing. Feeling of being an astronaut. Really a great game! Congrats!

Theme chosen: interplanetary delivery service. Funny and original.

this is a brilliant game. it's crazy taxi in space, with laser cannons. in retrospect, it didn't need the laser cannons; it was great without them. my only complaint was that something about it gave me motion sickness. excellent game. nicely done.

@KingBolonzo: I tested it on an old laptop and had 50 fps. Did you try another browser?

Does someone else have this problem?

I think I may have developed a serious case of road rage thanks to this game... I just wanted to get the bonus so badly!!

Controls are smooth but the gameplay is kinda repetitive
The mood is good, with parallax scrolling <3

That was cool! I was expected something rubbish or broken based on your comment on my game - but it's none of that. Impressive to make such a range of good graphics, too.

Great game! However I reached level 8 and nothing happened. And then from level 5-6 it gets quite repetitive, since you are waiting for something new to happen that never gets there. But amazing effort for a ludum dare game. Well done!

Lack of audio kind of hurts this game a bit but this was quite a fun entry to play and the parallax effect you had for the stars was just amazing.

Nice game!, I like the idea and I found the star background effect to be very well done. Good job :)

Nice game! I liked the idea and polished graphics. It was fun to play and upgrade the ship! The camera movement made me a little sick though.
