I think it would be nice if you could see where you're taking the packages before you actually run down those little alleys near the end - and if instead of resetting the scene when you deliver all the packages, you could make it a score attack where you keep respawning packages on either side. Neat game nonetheless!!!

This is really cool! I really liked the models, menu ui, sounds etc. The idea is cool, the gameplay is fun although I would like to know where each colour package should go before I make my way to the end, feels a bit blind atm. Really nicely made game, big fan of the quack button!

I love the game it's so cute! The music is fun and the assets are adorable. This game is clearly very polished, you all did a great job on this. I do like that you gave a quack button, definitely makes the game! I think it's a pretty simple idea of delivering boxes to a place. Overall I really enjoyed it! Great job!

Thanks for the feedback! There's a post-jam release in the works!

Really cool game, I enjoyed it. Overall, you're closer of a realeased game than a prototype! Keep up the good work !

First of all, love the duck models and sounds. Secondly, this game is frustrating in the very best of ways, atleast for someone like me who never played many platformers. I kept making the wrong move, getting back and repeating until I finally had the packages in the right place and it was both satisfying and Fun!
It's frogger like, but way cuter. 6/5 for cuteness.

Wow... Just amazing! Assets and all the sounds brought it together, and it clearly looks like a lot of effort went into programming it as well. The only thing I would recommend adding would be an indicator, or a little arrow that would tell the player which box to go to because it can get a little confusing knowing which box is what and remembering that. A suggestion for a replacement model for the boxes is maybe a color-coded truck! The grey walls on the sides could be fences instead as well :)

Funny game, simple gameplay. Why did the chicken cross the road?) In general, I am satisfied and did not regret the time to play for all the ducks.

Thank you so much for all the comments and feedback!! We had a ton of fun making this and I'm so happy others are enjoying it too 😺

These types of games lose me very quickly, because of how bad I am at timings and such :)

But it's cute and colorful, way to go! Quack! :D

Great and simple game! Good concept with smooth execution, love the different ducks you can play

10/10 only duck game I've played on Ludum Dare.

Just felt great to play as these GOOD OL DUCKS.

Would have loved for there to have been more.

Nice work!

resacaGames3 May 2023, 19:35

Very fun frogger styled game!!! Nice touch with the different characters, kinda challenging also, excellent work! 💪

Kutase3 May 2023, 19:39

Nice frogger interpretation! I like graphics and music. Good job!

Broccolly3 May 2023, 19:47

Interesting take on the frogger genre! Liked the music, gameplay and art style - would also like to see where I'm going in advance and have more parcels to deliver! Great job :)

I love it, it's super fun and silly. One criticism I have is that it would be nice to see which house is which from further away, without having to go into one of the walled off areas just to check. Also is there an intended way to actually deliver the packages? It seems like you just have to intentionally die after reaching the house. Overall though I really enjoyed it!

Also I love that there's a quack button

xxstdykauthor4 May 2023, 03:21

Hey @kypello thanks for playing! There's an updated version in the works that includes a lot more feedback to the player for which house is where. As for the intended way to deliver packages, you can press `Q` to drop the last package picked up (the one at the very top of the stack)
I'm glad you enjoyed it regardless!!

xxstdykauthor4 May 2023, 03:36

A minor update has been pushed which adds some visuals in the world to orient where the player has to drop off the packages, some UI fixes, and a couple smaller changes under the hood. You can find the update on our itch.io page!

Really neat game!I liked the art and music and movement felt tight. Duck sound was hilarious but I think the sound for picking up package was a bit harsh. Really enjoyed playing this and beat it with all 3 ducks!

Rigel4 May 2023, 04:30

So cute,quack!I love the art and sound,quack.When I was rafted to the border,I got stuck in the wall,quack.I enjoyed it very much,quack.

Quack Quack, Cool game :D

Refry4 May 2023, 08:29

Nice iteration of a frogger-like game. Loved the humour. Fun to play :)!

LucDeligne4 May 2023, 08:33

Quack!

Ahem. So, essentially frogger with a duck uh? I'll take it.
The different ducks to choose from are a nice touch.
