Player Comments on Go Get The Mail!

I don't know what to think...

So, we definitely have some good humor here, but in the mixture we have heavy doses of lolrandom. Lolrandom humor can be good, but using it extensively (to cover plotholes and leave gaps) is a big no-no for storywriting.

The storygame itself was rather illogical at some points, and a lot of the choices didn't make much sense. The storygame uses a type of reverse psychology, in which doing the exact opposite of what you should is the best option at some points.

The neighborhood did seem like one of a kind. A bully that doesn't mind killing you, murderous rabbits, dogs that can result in your death...

It was a good plot. I loved the idea of making such a simple task into a storygame. Not many authors can do such a thing.

The setting could have been fleshed out a bit more as well.

I liked the character development (although there wasn't a lot), but I was able to feel for these characters I suppose, in a humorous sort of way.

The grammar was nearly perfect. One quick proofreading can fix this.

3/8, pretty average.

Getting the mail has never been more difficult. This story was quite random and humorous, whenever I was making my best attempt on surviving the horrors of the neighborhood. Between the kiler rabbits, dogs, and pretty much... Well, everything else.

This game was rather fun.

Not worth the swim through the sewer

I guess I will just have to do all that in reverse to get back home!

perfect score, funny, relatable, and makes me feel right at home next to to cupcake who doesnt bite

when bullies stop you from getting the mail

It's humorous. Seriously, this game put a smile on my face. Its short passages ensure quick pacing with lots of choices, and the climax of the piece bears a satisfying conclusion to its overall narrative. Satisfyingly conveys themes of perseverance in the face of adversity, even if that means taking the road less travelled and learning to pick your battles.

I love that I can moon the bully. XD

too hard but challenging

Hilarious, ridiculously funny, and very puzzling. It took me a long time to solve, but it was very fun!

Funny! I enjoyed the game even if the mailbox was empty

*Sigh* I couldn't get the darn mail.

This wasn't all that great. It's supposed to be funny, but I just found it to be really random. And it's really linear too, but granted that isn't very important for a joke story. To someone who likes random humor, this isn't all that bad, but for me, it felt like a waste of time and frankly boring as you really dig into it. 3/8

Got to the point where I didn't care enough to get the mail and just killed myself by walking through the construction site to end the game. There is no motivation, there is no reason, but at least you've visibly improved in writing since 2014.

Okay...

Interesting, a little funny, but also super confusing. Killer bunny? Murderous bully? Construction site of doom... Sewers? Good idea, but some of the paths don't make much sense. Like, why go in the sewers at all? Why not go all the way around the house to avoid having to take the grossest swim of your life? Though that is a lot of stuff to do, for you in the past.

Still a fun game, though.

I really enjoyed the humour with this one, you want to go down every path apart from the objective just to get more laughs.

After a while intentionally killing myself in funny and random ways, I then hilariously won the game in a pretty clever way, that I think was quite deeply and well hidden for this very reason. GG

This is the best mail getting adventure ever!
I just love every part of it.

I didn't really feel like getting the mail so I appreciate the game letting me wander all around the neighborhood in the opposite direction and then eventually drown in a river of raw sewage instead.

This was a really good short story!

Despite the large number of death links, this was very enjoyable and rather fun to play, if only to navigate myself around a maze of blundering into the same parade of elephants and cops who taser you for walking on the wrong side of the road. It did feel rather linear, however.

Maybe it's your writing style, but I didn't mind the amount of death links. I'm not sure why. It takes a while for the reader to get the end, and even then they're denied their mail. There really ought to be some kind of reward in place. I mean, why was I forced to swim through a sewer just to get there?

It took a few tries, but I finally got it! Can't wait for more

It is an amusing story especially when sleep deprived. Though the option for jumping out of the window felt too repetitive.

From now on, I'll hire someone to get the mail.

Woohhoooo i got the mail
though i had to crawl through sewers

What is this neighborhood? How the hell did the mailman even get here?

wow, that's bad

I did it!

Hilarious and gross if you get the right ending.

This was fun

I couldn't find how to win once I got to the parade

i had fun

I can't win:-(

(Sigh) I did my best to avoid the mailbox, walked around town, got chased by a cop, went down into the sewers, swam through sewage and ended up reaching the mailbox on accident. It was a really fun story though!!

Ugh, I couldn't get the mail! I was stuck and didn't know how to get out, it was just like a maze! Really confusing and fun!:)

I Couldn't get the mail

HOLY CRAP!!! MAIL IS BRUTAL!!!

That was beautiful.

Can you even win?

This is a great game. I had to get beat up and stunned a couple of times but that just added to the enjoyment. Good job.

Tricky, but enjoyable.

Yay! I got blew up! 3/8

That was actually pretty enjoyable! :) Short and sweet.

I had to go through a sewer... Oh well, at least I learned that there was no mail.

I almost thought it was unbeatable but no it was pretty good

This is great!!!!

I never knew that you could take so many paths to mail! I liked the humor and the sheer amount of choices!
Very good, a 6/8

Holy cow, that was difficult. xD It took me forever to complete it, simply because I kept going in circles with no sense of direction. x3
I thought it was pretty good, a 5/8. OwO I will stay tuned for the sequel! ^w^

Kinda cliche and generic, still a little fun game. 4/8.
