CONTROLS

- R to reset from checkpoint

on ground:
- arrow keys to move
- z to jump
- x to boost

in air:
- arrow keys to rotate car
- z to jump
- x to boost

NOTES:
- controls, specifically that R is reset for softlocks/bugs
- game is kinda unfairly hard
- pressing jump twice really fast gives good height
- momentum is conserved so getting some speed before jumping gives distance
- you can only rotate your car in air
- last jump is really hard, requires really high precision, or a ground boosted jump
- can only use one of either boost type when in the air

Genres: action

The itch link seems to be down, but ill come back later to try it out. Title art looks great

I'm intrigued by the name, but unfortunately it seems the itch.io link is broken :(

Shoutout to Bepis and the art in the intro. However, the game might be a bit bugged though as the distance number keeps decreasing even though I wasn't making any progress through the map.

Nice take on the driving delivery theme. The music is great and adds to the tension but boy is the game hard. I like how the game conveys the entire premise through a few stylish images without the need for any text.

Initially didn't understand that you had to angle the car midair to get a good midair boost, but once I understood that I started having a lot of fun. I wish there was more! Nice job.

haha such a funny concept

I m guessing I did not prevent the explosion... silly delivery guy haha

got one critique re level design, it is hard to see where you are going, but I guess a trial and error path is compensated by how quick you restart and move

Those cutscenes were phenomenal - the gameplay was surprisingly fun, despite being frustrating at times. I mean this in the best way possible, but it honestly feels like a rage game - the controls are difficult to master but incredibly satisfying when you get it right, great submission!

I loved the cutscene haha ! Very nice art. The controls are goods, i felt powerful driving this crazy car :'D
Good job !

the cut scene is marvelous, begging the question "to whom do they deliver bombs?" with no dialog is excellent. controlling the car is wild. and i think you should have drawn the car/ boxes as well! nice work.

The cut scene at the start is great, and controlling an exploding car was very fun. I did find the load of boxes lagged my laptop a little, and the jumps got quite hard, but it was a fun play overall. Cool stuff!

Haha, it so stupid, I love it!
Really do like the humor and the artstyle.

Like you mentioned on your itch.io page, it is really hard to beat.
The controlls were a little but unpredictable.

But overall, nice and fun game!

Oh the controls are not easy to get into but when you do some stuff becomes quite satisfying. But still, it's a bit too harddd. I got to the place where you have to do a tall vertical jump twice in a row and that was just pure hell. I mean the game looks like you're in hell anyway haha.

The beginning sequence is really cool. I wonder though why the hell would you have bombs in a pizzeria :^)

Anyway, great job!
