This is such a cool and relaxing game, I enjoyed it quite a bit! I have played Papers, Please so I was kind of missing the daily timer to force you to go faster. However, if going slow is the vibe of the game, I respect that.
I really liked the look of Peggy's Post, and wanted to see if you’d be interested in a small playtest partnered with GameUserResearch. This would be completely free, and we'd collect real gameplay data, feedback, and recorded footage/screenshots/surveys to help refine the experience.
A key focus would be how well players understand the game’s mechanics, whether everything is intuitive, and what could be improved to make the experience clearer and smoother. We’d also analyze engagement, difficulty balance, and overall UX to see if anything could be refined. Additionally, do you have any other games in development that might benefit from structured user testing?
I’d love to help provide early feedback and insights that could shape the game’s direction. Let me know if this sounds useful, I’d be happy to discuss it further!
I recently just completed a playtest if you would like an example!
It's an interesting demo. I'd be happy to buy a complete Windows version. I can tell you that, this game (in its current form) is already compatible with hundreds of controllers, because it won't interfere with JoyToKey, although Xbox plug-and-play is popular.
i love this game sm i wish there where more papers please like games on here i also wish this was a little longer or maybe more interactive but its soooooo good anyways
Sorry, that's a bug! It's already fixed for the next update (hopefully coming out within the week), but in the meantime, you can avoid triggering it by not leaving any packages on the scale overnight
Thanks for linking the video! It's super insightful watching a first-time play-through, seeing what players get excited about and what we devs need to improve on xD
Took me a second to get the hang of it but after that it was very enjoyable to play through! Managed to clear my debt on the first try and found I had more fun the more things were added.
Yeah, sorry about that! There's no real tutorial atm and the game does ask a lot of the player in terms of figuring stuff out on their own. We plan to add a tutorial, slow down the rules intro, and update the "?" overlay in the future (once the game is closer to being done), but in the meantime, what are you getting stuck on?
2. It's unclear what pattern to use to glue the stamps
3. How to send the ship???
4. How to write down the weight in the notebook? Which button should I press?
5. English is not my native language. I'm not asking you to do translations, but perhaps it would be worth simplifying the words and expressions used in the game.
Hi there! Not the dev, but I've been playing for a while so while I cannot update the tutorial, I can answer your questions!
1. In 7-day mode, your goal is to make $50 by the end of the week to save the lighthouse. In endless mode, just make as much money as you can and don't go bankrupt lol.
2. Doesn't matter how you apply stamps, as long as the value adds up. I personally like laying them out super neat, but that's just my perfectionism speaking.
3. The ships send automatically at the end of the day, no need to worry about it!
4. When you get updates for your notebook, just drag the note announcing the update onto the book. It updates automatically.
I'm not sure what your native language is (not like I'm fluent in anything but English anyhow), but I hope that I was able to help with my answers. :)
Thanks! Yeah, it's super helpful for us to learn where players are getting stuck :) Hopefully we can translate/localize in the future, but we'll definitely work on the tutorial before that happens
So I have heard about this weighing machine bug that has been occurring. The weighing machine will bug out and display money instead of actual scale, and when a stamp is placed, the scale will display ERROR. I have managed to track it down, and it seems like leaving a package overnight on the scale will bug it. I have tried it with another save file, and it still worked. Let me know if it works for you.

I have nothing complicated to say other than this was really fun!
Hello Digitarium,

Gameplay and Critique ;)
is the lighthouse based off peggy's cove lighthouse?!?
IT IS I LIVE BY THERE
this is so cute and fun! I just wish I could remove stamps after they were applied - I sometimes get muddled with the sizes and can't make it right :(
Boy do we have good news for you! The stamp removal tool (sneak peeks on discord) will go live with the next update, hopefully some time this weekend.
i love this game sm i wish there where more papers please like games on here i also wish this was a little longer or maybe more interactive but its soooooo good anyways
The scale sometimes changes to dollars. How can I know the weight of that?

hi hi!! i played this game and really really enjoyed it!! (thanks for not having a time limit, it made it relaxing instead of stressful!)

aweee this was such a cute lil game! Easy to understand as long as you're willing to click around and find some things on your own!
Ahhhhhh too hard for me... Can't understand anuthing... Even the ? button cant help

1. It's hard to understand what to aim for.
2. It's unclear what pattern to use to glue the stamps
3. How to send the ship???
4. How to write down the weight in the notebook? Which button should I press?
5. English is not my native language. I'm not asking you to do translations, but perhaps it would be worth simplifying the words and expressions used in the game.
I hope my comment will help you.

Thanks for the game! Love it!!! I really like the concept of the game and the graphics are superb! Music is chill too :)
Thanks, glad you enjoyed! <3
I did!

I have a video recording ready if you wish.
My savior <3 No need for the video, I can replicate it now -- thanks! We should have it fixed for the next update
