Excellent Retro Love Ode

I’ve been playing this constantly. I love what it’s based off of and all the easter eggs sprinkled throughout are awesome. Swipes seem to be registering better now for some reason as well. My only ask is for an IAP to remove ads. I want to support this but don’t see any option anywhere to do so even though someone in a previous review said they paid for that IAP. Add that and this will be perfect 👍🏻

EDIT: I didn’t realize I could keep scrolling past the air tricks to find the IAP’s. Maybe make a 3rd purchase menu with just the IAP’s? Either way, glad I was able to support this awesomeness 👍🏻👍🏻

100 funny references a minute ... and fun gameplay :)

The best part of this game is seeing one pop culture reference after another, many but not all from the 1980s. But beneath that is also a fun and challenging game, with a whole lot more engaging gameplay than many games with this style of graphics. And the IAPs are not greedy. Gameplay hint: This is based on a game about delivering papers ... Aim for those mailboxes. If you reach the end of the course, you will get big points for each video thrown into a mailbox.

Glitched that just make the game IMPOSSIBLE

Hi, So I have been playing this game for quite a while now and I on once deleted it because it was too hard, like when I made it to the 2nd underground ninja turtle level, it glitched right before I flicked the lever making me die. Also in the same ninja turtle level when I passed that… mouse… guy it glitched making me run into one of the pipes… and that’s not all, on the streets when I delivered a movie I glitched for about 10 seconds and just teleported me into a person. So I would really like you to fix the map, ESPECIALLY the 2nd underground ninja turtle level, Thanks 😁
