Nice entry! Was fun to slowly build up the number of birds - it would be nice if the detection of the paths was a bit snappier. I wanted to draw them very quickly but sometimes they didn't register very well and it slowed me down a bit. Cute art btw!

Hmm I couldn't get this to work, the game would load up with some animations but I didn't know what to do, clicking on things did nothing and keyboard wasn't useful. The artwork looked pretty nice though.

The game breaks on the tutorial, and without it I did not understand how to play

@denissobolev @rohanmoon We now have a (very) simple tutorial in the form of a GIF and a written explanation in the description. Thanks for trying anyway!

The game was really cool! I really liked the artwork and the gameplay was very chaotic.

Good job!

First 5 o' 5 in all categories. We love the music, art and mechanics. This is a hard game, that hard to make you suffer in all of good senses. Thank you for this game!

Pretty fun puzzle game with cute style and nice blue bird (I`m not talking to you, Twitter, no).
I thought that it`s one of these games, that`s easy to learn – hard to master. Maps become more complex, days become harder. Sometimes the line was acting in a strange way and drew in a loops, that I didn`t want to create – and it even cost me some deliveries. But overall – good work!

Really cool little game, and even without the tutorial I understood quickly ! I liked the effort you put into drawing the buildings, and segment challenges by gradually adding components. (I think you already know it but the sound when you buy a new bird is really high !!) GG

@sylf Thanks a lot for your complete comment, we are glad you had fun despite the bugs (Normally a lot of them are fixed in the itch version). And yes, the bird... I realized by drawing it that there is a "teeny tiny" resemblance, but I just hoped no one would notice it haha xD

The art is amazing, impressed that you're able to do that amidst a game jam! Appreciate how you taken the time to add a difficulty scale. congrats on finishing the game!

It's a cute delivery game. This game has a ton of features, such as a day-night cycle, difficulty level, and cute artwork, which makes it quite amazing. I like your idea. Great game! :)

An overall very nice entry! Idea was great and well-executed, graphics were cute and polished and music was fitting. I do think however that the gameplay can get a bit repetitive and that there is a point where the game just starts putting in too many orders and becomes a bit overwhelming. I would've also liked the map to have a more equal amount of warehouses (as at some point there was 1 worm merchant for 3 water warehouses and 3 bakeries) and I also had no reason to reach for certain far away warehouses. I also encountered a few bugs with the UI not updating correctly and houses spawning in unreachable spaces, but nothing fundamentally game-breaking. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Either way, I had fun in the midst of path-drawing chaos. Congratulations! :thumbsup:

an interesting game! The path is sometimes a bit clunky when drawn but it work overall ! Nice art, fun level design !

@virtualman52 Thanks a lot for the review! The warehouse types are randomized, so sometimes you get screwed over yeah... But it was an easy way to make each run feel a bit different, that's why it's still there.

I wish the ordering could be simpler so I could give order faster but I could see why. It's fun game nonetheless, will have to try better next time.

A lot of a qualities to this game. It was fun to draw path and nice to have a mode to play calmly.
