Package Party
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Package Party is a local multiplayer (“couch co-op”) game for literally anyone. Gather your friends, family, kids, girlfriend, boyfriend, neighbors, neighbor’s dog – and start working together to deliver packages!
Up to 4 people must cooperate and coordinate to get those pesky boxes where they belong … without damaging them too much or arriving two hours too late.
Sounds easy, I hear you say. I could do that alone, I hear you think.
Oh, you sweet summer child.
There will be …
- Conveyor belts
- Moving bridges
- Gates that somehow always seem closed
- Security cameras with lasers that kill you (people and their security these days …)
- Trampolines
- Catapults
- Farm animals that get in the way
- Police that doesn’t like it when you run a traffic light because you’re in a hurry
- Orders from Santa Claus himself
- A mix of many genres: action, platforming, stealth and puzzle solving
- And much more!
Is this game for me?
Do you need a party game? Or a game you could play with people who’ve never played a game before? (Or those who always say "nah, I'm just not that into gaming"?)
Do you want to spend quality time with your dear ones, and do you have 1-4 players and a (somewhat) working computer?
Then Package Party might be the game for you.
Simple controls, deep gameplay
Package Party is so easy to pick up that literally anyone can join in the fun: gamers and non-gamers alike.
For example, the first two worlds of the game only require a single button (for moving around).
Any time a new mechanic is introduced, it's explained with quick animated video tutorials, right when you need it!
But don't let that fool you. As the game progresses, only the most capable and talented delivery workers will be able to get that three star score!
Tracking your Package
Thank you for checking out the progress on my game!
When I started this game, I was quite certain I could manage it by myself. As it turns out, I wasn't ready yet for such a big project. And the Corona pandemic surely didn't help the creation and testing of this local multiplayer game. (What a surprise.)
I'm currently creating many smaller projects, gaining more experience, and looking for people who'd want to build this game into a professional co-op classic with me.
Nevertheless, the current version already has 13 working levels which provided my playtesters with loads of fun. These features are available:
- Support for 1-4 Players => any controller and keyboard combination is supported.
- Support for Windows, Mac and Linux.
- Two worlds, with 13 levels, which are reasonably polished ( = completely playable and bug-free, tutorial videos included, etcetera)
When will the game be finished? When will it update? I'm quite certain you'll see at least 5-10 other projects from me, before I'm sure I have the skills to continue. So if you want to follow this game, the best you can do is follow me and the trail of projects I leave behind :)
