Tired of seeing mail get delivered?

As the titular Mail Eater, only you stand in the way of the evil Mail Men!

https://pedrohpf.itch.io/corgi-cargo-combat

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Controls 🎮


WASD to move

O to bark at the mailmen

P to pee on boxes

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notes 📝


This is a post-submission patch that fixes some UI scaling and a bug that made the player get stuck after barking

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you have problems try the itchio version!

Play in FullScreen for the best experience!

If you cannot find the FullScreen button, try to move the window scroll bar manually.

If you still cannot find it, try to click an in game dark button on the far right side of the screen (might be cutoff).

The web build didn't load for me :( Maybe try adding a link to itch? It might play better there

Thanks for adding the itch.io link as @slimefriend suggested!

Unfortunately your text/ui are pretty huge and don't really scale with the game. On fullscreen on a 1600x900 monitor (I know, I know) it's still a bit too large for the screen, and the scaled down version embedded in the browser has it even worse.

However, the game still played just fine. Cute, simple, and I like the play on the theme by preventing the deliveries. It's funny how after a while they'll get brave and attempt to deliver a pee-soaked box again if you fail to finish the, er, job. The faces on the little boxes actually made me laugh.

okay i actually got to play this and holy cow i loved it!!!! i was very confused as to how to actually start the game, as the title seemed to go off the screen and it was unclear what to click on to start, but after that i was absolutely hooked. the loop of bark at mail man -> piss on package was an amazing idea. great job!

@HoldMeImScared thank you so much for your kind words. This is our first submission so it was a bit of a struggle to upload correctly and still have some UI issues.
I'm glad you still managed to enjoy the game!

@slimefriend The UI seems to be broken, not sure what to do about that. To me it seems to work well when clicking fullscreen at least...
Thank you for playing the game though, and glad you found it fun!

It's a game starring a Corgi? *-* This is awesome!

Well, that's adorable! The bark range seems a little hard to gauge, but I'm not sure how that would be best fixed. Good work!

An incredible game, very funny the mechanics of pissing in the packages.
A very innovative use of the theme! Congratulations

I am tempted to submit a rating for "Fun" without playing based solely on the description of the controls... But that would be wrong.

Damn, I didn't expect the Mail Men to throw a box through the window! What a super silly fun idea for a game, I love it! Every game with a bark button is an auto win. I really appreciate using O and P for the action buttons.. That's so much more comfortable than what most developers go for, my wrists want to thank you very much!

pedrohpf2 May 2023, 22:41
@purrseus Thank you! I could not miss the chance to use P to pee ;)

The concept of playing as a mischievous corgi who causes mayhem by peeing on delivery packages is a masterpiece. Charming visuals and sound design of the game only added to the fun. I found myself smashing that O button hard - the game's humorous take on the delivery industry is both unique and enjoyable. Corgi Cargo Combat is simply perfect xp

I was a bit confused at first when the mail folk picked up the remains of a box then realised I haven't peed it enough lol. Also one of them dropped a box on the walls of the house, not sure if it was intended? Loved your take on the theme and that corgi is adorable. Great stuff :D

How much piss can a little corgi even have?!

One thing - wasn't actually clear to me from one go that pissing OVER the box still hits the box... Changed everything! Best part for me though were their funny 'screams'. They were quite on point of how SCARY real corgi trully is!
pedrohpf
pedrohpf2 May 2023, 23:12
@aviv-levy Yeah, they can be a bit not that smart at times, but who wouldn't throw a package at the walls when there's a crazy corki running around peeing everywhere heh

Glad you liked it!

Simple yet very enjoyable game! We love your original interpretation of the theme. Good job!

Man, just how much stuff is the owner ordering? I would not have guessed how someone could combine peeing with the theme, but here it is. Very simple yet fun to play

Hilarious game! Super simple, but surprisingly enjoyable to ruin the mailpersons day! Very well done.

So cute! Really funny. It is satisfying to bark at the deliverers and pee on the boxes.

Funny and simple. I'm a bit sad that peeing seems suboptimal 😂

What an incredible game! Extra brownie points for starring a Corgi. 😁

Took me a bit to get figure out the bark distance, but once I did it was very satisfying. Nice take on the theme and cute graphics. Loved that the mailmen would sit in fetal position AND that they would still try and deliver packages reduced to black piles of pee soaked goo. Dedication. Very funny and cute game!
jclardy3 May 2023, 22:41
Great game, balance feels well done between managing barking/peeing to keep the door protected.

I kid you not, the hardest part of this game for me was to figure out the controls. I typed every letter of the keyboard until I pressed something and I found out about the controls.

I know you already put the controls in the description, but I really don't think that's enough because it's easy to miss (for me at least).
Rigel4 May 2023, 07:07
It feels really great to "cause trouble",woof!Love the art and sound,GJ!

YOU CAN PEE ON THE BOXES!
Amazing! This is such a great idea for a game and a good take on this jam's them too!
I like the upbeat music and the sounds of both the dog and mail people! This was inspired hehe!

This game has been very entertaining, with a difficulty level that gradually increases but is well-balanced.

I felt the pressure at the end of the level with just one life left, but I managed to finish with a satisfying victory.

It's a game that I would definitely enjoy playing again, as it was fun overall and had an interesting use of the theme.

Congratulations!

Heya!

This was a really straightforward and decently balanced game. I thought the dynamics of barking vs peeing worked very well, and the way that the couriers would hang around made prioritising the two actions very engaging, strategy wise. The game was short and sweet, didn't overstay its welcome, which is appreciated.

I thought the sound design was great. The graphics and music were fine, though I did especially appreciate the box disintegrating animation.

Great work, thanks for sharing!
