The Delivery

by aile

My first game is a short story about delivering a mysterious package to a town called Spicata.

Left-mouse click to travel through the town and talk to the characters found there: The Prisoner, The Cheery Wizards, The Gardener, The Troll and one more... being.

Everything in the game is done by me, except the audio which uses following sources:

Dialogue support sound - https://pixabay.com/sound-effects/quiet-filler-bells-fm8-82084/
Ambient outro - https://pixabay.com/sound-effects/intro-bells-33635/

Used AGS for creating the game, and Aseprite for the artsy parts.

Update 16/5 - I've decided to try and fix all the things I got feedback on, and then upload the improved version to itch.io. Placing a soft deadline before midsummer. Mostly it's just a goal for myself: to continue working post-jam and learn some new things. Obviously I have quite a lot to learn!

Tools: Aseprite

Nice graphics and art. Love to see more narrative games. Here is one suggestion. The leaf cursor is too big which makes it hard to click or to select a dialog box, maybe consider making the leaf cursor smaller or make the tip of the leaf the cursor instead. All in all, it is a really good try. Congrats.

Hello fellow first-timer! I really like what you did with the worldbuilding and atmosphere. The story is solid and the ending really threw me for a loop (in a good way!). The villagers are fun and quirky and fill the world with life. Similar to above comments, for future games I'd suggest practical fixes, i. e. working on making the movement a bit smoother&faster (though it might have been bc i was running in browser?) and making it a bit clearer which parts of the environment can be interacted with.

Hope you have fun creating more games in the future :)
