Title is a bit on the nose, but the art style and gameplay were really enjoyable. It did leave me wanting a bit more by the end though.
If this is not your GOAT, then who is?!!
So fire
love the movement and environments, I think you did a great job all around with the whole game!
Love the overall theming and the humor, I wish the intro was a little bit shorter so I could jump into the gameplay. Once i figured out how to move around, the game felt a lot better. Nice job! Also thank you for playing Postal Apocalypse :)
You’re welcome man, thanks for the rating. Glad you enjoyed the experience 💯
The movement is fun and the visual style is great! :>
Glad you liked it!!
woah love it! visual aesthetic of it is absolutely amazing, movement is fun, some parts of the game do get a little repetitive but the banger music and map design more than make up for it- great job!
Really well put together! Fun movement, fun visuals, lighthearted story, and nothing felt jank at all! My only complaint I can possibly give is that you have to use alt f4 or the windows hotkey to close the game after winning, as the esc mouse unlock stops working, and maybe the video pitch spoils some of the game considering how short it is. 23/25 stars :D
Yeah, I realized that I forgot to implement the Escape-Unlock in the ending sequence when I’d already built the game…
Regardless, glad you enjoyed what you played, and appreciate the rate. ‼
Fr, one of my favorite game submissions Ive played so far!
A really really cool experience. The levels gave me major liminal vibes, which I love. The music and visual grain also just elevates that vibe to a whole new level. Got genuine chills down my spine while playing through the third level. It was also so fun to explore around the places.
I really love the art direction, its so delightfully creepy and keeps you on edge through the entire experience. Fun story, really interesting environments, and amazing soundtrack!
Very fun to move around, grab coins and try to climb up every object I could find, I do kinda wish there was a bit more dedciated platforming, but that leaves me excited for whatever you work on next! The music was really really good too, and the signs in the mall were really funny
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the feedback ‼️
Really good experience. Honestly it's a shame there wasn't any actual platforming considering how solid the controls are. that triple jump was pretty fun. The soundtrack was as well.
Glad you enjoyed it. I certainly shoulda fleshed out the levels more - and in fact I wanted to - but I had to keep things small and couldn’t really go bigger than I already had. I’ve received really good feedback on this engine though, so I’m almost certainly gonna be using it again.
That's awesome, I hope you can overcome your burnout as well. Also I realize I didn't write my comment fully but compliments to the person who made the music. It's fantastic!
thanks for the compliments on the music! i'm hoping this is just the start to a long career in video game soundtracks haha
I honestly didn't expect that I'd enjoy this so much, it's short enough to keep you engaged despite the minimal gameplay. It's definitely form over substance, and that's not a bad thing.
(also the soundtrack is great)
5s across the board
Glad you enjoyed it 💯
Its Very Unique for sure
I ended up chickening out, but PEAK!!!
praying for my life out here
