Really fun. Initially I was annoyed with the car mechanics but it actually fit the crazy vibe if the whole thing.

Thanks! I had worked really hard on getting the driving down to like a chaotic but manageable level. And then when I packaged the game with 30 minutes left, it played completely different in the packaged version lol. I rushed to try to get it as close as to what I had in the engine.

I really loved your game! It has such a fun concept, and it was executed extremely well! I would definitely buy this game if it were available on Steam!

Thanks so much for playing and the kind words! I've been thinking about adding in all the stuff I had to cut, and release the directors cut in a bit lol

Interesting idea! Managed to reach the end with all errands completed, and was easy to understand what to do as a first time player. The car handling although basic was quite fun - I enjoyed throwing it around the streets of the town. Also liked the framing of the to-do list through the phone - reminded me of Fears to Fathom. 

Lots of ways to imagine how you could keep iterating and fleshing out the game given more time - I'd have loved to have seen errands that have different types of gameplay to complete (maybe you have to deliver something from one location to another etc), or perhaps more that come in during the day to add to that chaotic rushed feeling. Overall nice short and sweet entry - well done for finishing and having something you can play end to end!

Thanks so much for playing! I was just trying to go for a simple arcadey style driving. 

I know! I had so many great ideas for different types of tasks, like dropping off the laundry and having to pick it up later, or once you take the car to the auto-shop you are without for the rest of the day. I was wanting to have ways you could pick up the wrong thing from the store or get more points for picking up something really nice. But I ended up having to cut a lot that I wanted to do just from time.
