WELCOME TO DEADEX
From the dead, For the dead!
You’re a fresh corpse working your first and last shift at DeadEx, the world’s least-organized post office
Your boss? He hates this job and walked out mid-sentence. Your training? Nonexistent. Your task? Pick up cursed, twitchy, exploding, slimy boxes and hand them to... someone. Doesn’t have to be the right person. Nobody checks.
Dodge chaos, slap on some questionable upgrades, and survive the undead workday all to boost your "Rotten Reviews" score. Because in this job, five stars is still technically rotten.
THIS IS YOU
HOW TO PLAY
BOXES
Some parcels may arrive with... let’s call them special features
UPGRADES
Spend your earnings on something useful. Like hands that work.

I found 2 bugs:
1 - horizontal movement is inverted at random times;
2 - after I opened the description of a parcel, I could not exit it - no matter what I pressed, the description continued to block the screen.
Apparently, the main efforts went into the art. It looks really good!
Hi thank you for playing the game!
The controls are meant to invert when you hold the box the cursed box. This is not a bug
The parcel being unable to be removed has been fixed but cant update due to the gamejam
I got you, my bad
Cool art and idea! I keep getting stuck on a box screen though, and I have to restart the game. Not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong or not. But still looks fun from what I saw. Very cool that you got it so polished in such a short amount of time!
That is a bug that has been patched on the other Corpse Courier page.
Let me know if you are interested in playing it!
Can't believe you made it in only 5 days. Very nice! Loves the art style.
Thank you! Lots of sleepless nights for sure! Thank you for playing the game!
Start to Crate is literally 0 sec XD
Sorry. I don't understand
