THE BEST! Enjoyed it so much that it made look forward to every random ass idea Daggers would be doing at the same time. Multitasking at its finest! And the banter was too hysterical that it adds to the chaos while doing all the shi on the side 💀 Gramms is such a baddie too lmao
Really great game with such a variety of mechanics you have to multitask! My favourite part was, of course, the fantastic humour and world-building, which really shows you what a world would be if you could text while driving (a utopia). Thank you so much for creating this wonderful game!
A wonderful game that deliberately loads you with a lot of stuff!!! If in other games it was just tracking indicators, then right there you need to use all 10 fingers from your two hands!!! Type with the entire keyboard athe the same time. Keep your eyes on the road so you don't get knocked down or hit anyone. Trying to not fall asleep shaking the mouse. Choose a girl on tinder. THIS IS JUST INSANE!!! I lost at the last level (sixth), because there were ABSOLUTELY ALL MECHANICS FROM ALL LEVELS!!! THE MOST INTENSE 22 MINUTES OF MY GAMING EXPERIENCE
This game was so much fun! I love the humor and honestly the texting with the keyboard thing got me super excited. Looove typing games. Here's my play through
I have got to admit, that might be the weirdest way I have ever gotten the good ending before. I love the plate spinning hysteria of trying to focus on everything at once, even if my first attempt did end quickly and miserably.
Managed to get the Mac app running, but can't get past the splash screen before it crashes, both on arm and x64 version. Macbook M2 with latest OS. Anything I can do to make it run anyway?
that should generate a crash.log in path/to/app.app/Contents/MacOS (it seems that app bundles in mac intercept exceptions before I get a chance to generate the log file, so executing it that way should give us something)
Oh my goodness, this was absolutely hysterica, and it was a lot of fun (and tense af!). I'm soooooooo glad I'm a quick typer cuz otherwise I never would've stood a chance, and the fact that I've actually texted and driven far too many times probably helped too 🤣 But shhhhhhhhhh 100% would not recommend. Seriously though, this was incredible! I had to play without audio so I'm sad I missed out on the voice acting, but seriously this was a huge surprise of a game and had terrific dialogue, gameplay, and art, and it was done for Ludum Dare?!?! Howwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww?!?!?!
PS: I love the baby delivery comment lol, way to get that into the game in addition to being a game about making deliveries 🤣
Hi, just to inform that sadly none of the Mac version works under Monterey nor Ventura OS. :(. (under Ventura not playable with a forbidden sign on it, and on Monterey, the app says that the download has been damaged - usually appears if you missed some libraries)
this security thing should appear only with zip downloaded on the net, (not from local network or usb file) but as I see it happens with the .dmg file too (I mean not zipped..well although dmg is a kind of compression too)
Anyway I'm glad to play it, it's really fun ( ˶ˆᗜˆ˵ )
great job
Edit : 72hours!! most people don't realize the amount of work it requires to do that in so little time (It nearly took me a year to make a playable demo TᴖT )
and found Bugs: on Mac at the start of stage 3 once grandma start talking after the player complains about turning too much left and use a drug to compense, the game crashes.
And a little other one but it helps me a lot: if you quit the game and choose continue, you'll start on the next stage
that was a pretty good catch, thanks eidern :O we updated the build with fixes for those issues (crash + save). mac has been pretty weird, apparently it doesn't create the crash.log file if it ran through an .app. we're still learning how to navigate mac anyway, so that was super useful!
we're also super glad you enjoyed the game!! thanks for playing it <3
This game is astounding. Plate spinner games rule.
I started out thinking to myself"I'm going to make Daggers McBlack a person who texts while driving, but I'm going to pick at least semi-reasonable dialog" and loved that it quickly devolved into "all of these choices are awful, daggers is a lunatic, ah well, I'm going to propose to my tinder date that I've shared 3 sentences of conversation with yolo"
It's not letting me comment on LD for some reason. Great game! Art was superb (as expected), and everything really came together. As it turns out, being a really good typist *sucks* in this game, which makes me laugh so hard for having my hands beaten with a ruler so many times as a kid. But I digress - very solid entry!

This game was an awesome combination of typing, racing, and multi-tasking. I loved it! The dialogues made me laugh out loud. Great job!!

What game engine did you use I am just wondering ?
Its on their github, the engine is called murder engine
I'm the greatest driver of all time ! (Damn the last day was hard af)
That was simultaneously horrible and hilarious. Excellently done
Very fun concept and very well played, congratulations!

absolutely hilarious and amazing, the ending credits really had me cracking up too
lmao, so good

it would help us a *ton* if can you try running, from a terminal:
that should generate a crash.log in path/to/app.app/Contents/MacOS (it seems that app bundles in mac intercept exceptions before I get a chance to generate the log file, so executing it that way should give us something)
Did as you asked, ran the command, but now: no more crashes! Also, no crash log in the app folder.
interesting!! i'm glad it worked out haha
Lmao this was goddamn great, more games should be made where multitasking is a main mechanic!

Yay, thanks for saying so! And you're so welcome, thanks for making it 🙌

+1 yeah, could not launch either.

thanks for bringing this up! there seems to be an issue on how the .zip is being uploaded in itch.io on mac especifically, we're looking into it
Apparently this is a Mac security thing I don't fully understand, but you can run it with a weird terminal command, if you want:
I found that here:
https://www.howtogeek.com/803598/app-is-damaged-and-cant-be-opened/
(I'm looking now into how to become an Apple Certified Developer so this won't happen again)
Ok thanks, extracting the dmg to the app folder and using the command did the trick :)
Weird, as detailed in this article:
https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/425060/should-i-enter-this-command-in-terminal/425068#425068

this is really well made, good job
I'm so ridiculously enamored with this game. It's fun, colorful, the humor is just right. So good.
