My propeller-powered duck delivery action game Ducky's Delivery Service is available now on Steam and itch.io!

(edit for people who see this post later: it's now also available on Nintendo Switch!)

Ducky's Delivery Service is an action game where you are a duck who uses a propeller backpack to fly around and deliver mail. Master the flight physics, grow your delivery business, fulfill special delivery requests from other ducks, and earn time attack ranks and high scores.

This game has been the past year or two of my life, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. If you're interested in things like Balloon Fight, Crazy Taxi or cute ducks, consider giving it a try!

THE DAY HAS COME!!!!!! THE DAY OF A GRAY-WHITE DUCK BECOMING A MASTER DELIVERY DUCK, AND MANY PACKAGES BEING BRUISED AND BROKEN ALONG THE WAY, THOUGH EVERY BROKEN PACKAGE IS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE AND ONE SHOULD NOT BE DISCOURAGED BY SUCH TRIFLES!!!!! Looking forward to playing this soon; congratulations on the release!!!

Played it for a bit on steam and I gotta say that it's been a lot of fun so far. The controls are just difficult enough to be a challenge without being impossible and, I will admit, I was absurdly proud of myself for connecting a through from 9.1 meters out :D

You know, I don't know if it's in there and I missed it but...possibly a nifty feature would be some stats that could include the longest throw you've completed. I'm sure a lot of folks are playing this to be fast, but I really like the package chucking part so it'd be cool to keep track of.

Though maybe it's in there and I just haven't noticed it yet (sounds like me).

currently the only way to track your longest throw is to see if you have the 5m and 10m throw achievements, otherwise you just have to remember it. sneaking a "longest throw" stat in there somewhere is a good idea, and if i ever come up with enough additional text to justify hiring all of the translators again (the game is available in 9 languages) i'll see if i can do it.

Ah yes, localization.... I always forget somehow 😂.

Eh, not a big deal honestly. The satisfaction of chucking one from a long way will just have to be enough for me! My longest so far was just over 20m. Granted that was more of a careful drop. The longest legit throw was 14m or so. Apparently I'm getting a real kick out of just chucking it from as far away as possible :D
