How not to Lose


Don't confuse Spam with proper email!

What I didn't do/Possible Improvements


This week's game was spurred on from a very minor comment over at the OUYAForum, where Jeffry84 vaguely just about happened to mention Paperboy.
After a discussion about how Paperboys aren't really relevant anymore, the game evolved into being about emails, instead.
Attempts were made to make the game be about throwing emails into people's inboxes, but there wasn't much skill involved in that, so instead the idea slowly morphed into what it is now.
A shoot-em-up with emails!

It still feels a little repetitive, though. Perhaps the game would've been better had I split the game into levels. I'm not sure.

Never mind.. On to the next game!
