What the heck hahahahaha loved it. You had fun making it and it shows, that's pretty cool!

Haha I love the idea, although you missed the opportunity to do the windows exit sound when I press "quit" the whole concept is so funny and the gameplay isn't bad at all! this is hella creative lol

This is great! I poked around and found the *musical* easter egg. Great job - 10/10 would Windows XP again.

loved this sm, the title immediately made me laugh and the gameplay was super clever and fun. I dug the music and artwork, this whole game was just a whole a e s t h e t i c

That was a fun little game, but ultimately I put it down due to a lack of level select and/or more forgiving restarts. I may have been doing something wrong, but it seemed that every time I mis-delivered a letter it would send me back to the start, which was quite tiring while trying to get past around level 9 or 10. The track connections were quite hard to place due to the smaller hitboxes and get the timing right on when many connections had to be made in quick succession.

The concept, however, was something I haven't seen yet in this jam and the music was a whole lot of fun! I found the incorrect deliveries to be very amusing and added a lot of charm when failing to connect the tracks in time. You totally nailed the Windows XP aesthetic and the gameplay was quite enjoyable on top of it all. Nicely done!

This feels like I shouldn't download it but is quite fun if you ignore that. Creative take, one the I haven't seen at all. Nice work!

- Oui

I wish that the camera showed the upcoming threats a bit sooner as I often felt like I didn't know what was coming until it was too late. Perhaps a skill issue on my part.
