Surprisingly addicting and tactical game :smile:

really funny idea, probably one of the best christmas themed games ever.

Haha, I had a lot of fun with this one. A lot of crossing my fingers and clicking hoping it would go to the right house. It was a bit hard to see the Limited Space theme, but the sound effects made the game feel quite fun!

@ordineu Thank you, glad you enjoyed playing!
We opted out of the theme because the ideas we had for the first few hours were just not that fun to play or design. So we pivoted to find a gameplay mechanic that felt fun and just built our own silliness instead.

Its very simple but surprisingly addictive, I just kept going back to it to see if i could do better. Love the sound effects!

Had our whole team playing! Liked the art.
Was not able to listen to any sounds on the html5 version.

@diego-teran Thanks for playing. Hm do you mind if I ask what system you are running it on I haven't had a problem with sound on my end but I am using edge browser on windows I can't test on Mac. Is the download one working with sound or has something gone horribly wrong? Thanks for your time.

@nepturenus Thanks for playing and Yeah, I didn't want to spend to much time on the art and we were making it in the same world as Kobold slide, another one of our games. but I think it fits rather well with the happy kobold look. This is what the kobold does for work.
@juhani-koskinen Thanks for playing glad you liked it.
@nullval Yeah, it's like the kobold version of Jackfrost or something. only with smashing boxes into houses.
@ramon-camata THEY ARE! Dragon only wants the best for their Kobold.
@gabexiii Glad you like it. Sorry we made a fun thing that will distract you from playing and rating other games!

I guess our games are just the opposite xD
Tristan Doell3 Oct 2023, 15:52
@qaolin your game is where the packages come from so the kobold can throw them. it's like robin hood but with more broken stuff.

Jacinto Mba3 Oct 2023, 15:57
Simple but fun and engaging game. I really had fan playing it!
acarc3 Oct 2023, 15:59
Fun game! Really made me realise how slow my reactions are!
Would have been cool if the packages had more of a connection to the house rather than just the arrow.
i.e. Triangle packages go to the triangle house, blue packages go to the blue house. Good stuff!

This is a very fun game, I really enjoyed it. It’s a shame that there are so few lives, because the game is hardcore. I would like to at least get lives for correct hits
Manskage3 Oct 2023, 16:02
Congratulations, this game is made very simply from a visual standpoint, but at the same time, it's fun and interesting to play, and that's what people play games for. Good job!

Simples, mas divertido

@jacinto-mba Glad you enjoyed the game. I'll get to yours soon. (tm) Thanks for playing.
@acarc we originally were going to do something like that but then it was so hard to just hit any house that we opted to make it a bonus rather than a requirement. Oh I think you mean like art wise I could totally do that though would have to be after jam. (There are several other things I need to fix art wise as it is ha ha.) Thanks for playing our game.
@tentacledream We were thinking about it but we opted out of it for jam game because some people don't like if the jam game can be endless. (I'm like, sorry we made a fun game and you got stuck playing it.) We might add it in after the jam, Because it is rather hard right now. Thanks for playing.
@manskage Glad you like it, we were trying to match the art style of one of our older jam games because they take place in the same world. We opted out of the theme because we couldn't figure out how to make a fun game out of it and we thought that if there were going to be not fun games then the jam people would need something so that we avoid the corn field spam from the last ludum dare.

Cute game with a simple idea. There are some minor problems with colliders, and I would like to see some mechanics development. Nice entry!

This is a good mini game. Simple, fun and cute!

Smitner3 Oct 2023, 20:48
Great idea, very challenging! However after missing a house, my intuition was to try the house again. Which was often false

Rincs4 Oct 2023, 09:59
I love your games. The Kobolds make me happy.
Kiyoshi6 Oct 2023, 13:10
Interesting concept, but I'd like more mechanics.Seems fun and cute

amirrajan8 Oct 2023, 01:13
I enjoyed yeeting packages very much.

bad_fetus8 Oct 2023, 22:42
45 points! Very simple and very fun! Had a good time with it, great work!
Sabi17 Oct 2023, 15:24
required payment for playing?

Gawain Doell17 Oct 2023, 17:20
@sabi Itch.io can be a little confusing if this is your first time seeing the site.
On the download button pop up, there is a grey text saying "No thanks, just take me to the downloads" We have it setup for optional donation. You don't need to pay if you play in the web browser with the Run Game button, and you can download for free using the "No thanks" link.
Let me know if this does not work for you. Thanks!

the game is very interesting, I liked it, the idea is good, continue at the same pace and you will become more professional

Funny game, I enjoyed it.
I was mildly distracted by the pile of boxes near me that looked exactly like my box and so I thought the thrown box would smash into them.
Think you could give a bit more lives to the player or make it so that you can somehow gain back lives if you manage to make deliveries.
NPCs popping out for a frame from the houses like on the title screen on "wrong house" would make it even more funny.
Good job!

I smiled :) simple and charming

Nice short game. Very realistic that is how UPS delivers packages.
Tristan Doell20 Oct 2023, 17:41
@unless-games We were going to add a system to get back lives but opted out for the jam period (some people got mad that our other game could be endless last time so for the jam we went with that.) But we are planning to add a way to get back the lives later. glad you liked it.
@dan-str Thanks that is the plan hoping to have a sellable game by end of next year at the latest. (Fingers crossed.) Glad you liked it.
@lalordmikey Yup we have all had packages destroyed like this well maybe without the magic but same result.
