It's fun to ring the bell. It's fun to boop a greeting. It's fun to look for a city seal on a map. Scrolling stamps would be groovy if they rotated in the same direction as the misha wheel. Fucking great stamp display. Awesome picking up and gluing stamps. The weighting is inherently cool, but the weight classes are laid out in an extremely anti-intuitive way and I was constantly confused as to whether a facet was included in the previous class or already belongs in the next one. It's a total orgasm to put up the price tag and drive coins into the coin receiver. It's fun to turn in the mail. It's fun to boop for goodbye.
It's fun to evolve by addition and multiplication. It's fun to degrade by ringing, bopping and stamping ponies.
The visuals are bearable, coherent and informative.
There are a lot of sounds and all of them are awesome.
The proposed assemblies are so harmoniously integrated that you have to look closely to find a gray base reskin in the crowd, and in the particles when sending mail - painted faces. Post Poners bends the proposed assets to fit rather than sagging under them. As part of an asset jam, this makes it slightly less valuable than Mare Ware or Cheharda. As just a game, however, Post Mares is consistently ahead of any jam game in terms of popularity. But as far as I'm concerned, it's exactly on the same level of goodness as Mare Ware and Cheharda.
Verdict
Magnum Opus
Making an interesting game is a craft, but making an interesting game about a craft is an art.

The graphics are nice, the style is consistent. Ponies are cute, with them you can interact and this is an additional plus. The tutorial is simple and easy to understand. The game looks professional - with each level there is a progression, mechanics are added. The controls are intuitive, but the inversion of the mouse wheel when selecting an artistamp a bit inconvenient. The only problem is with the weight of the parcels, as I realized the intermediate values do not need to count, but they are still marked on the scale. Very meditative game, I liked it.
I merely translated the comment from Tabun's user.

Well, it's a pony Papers Please, starring Derpy. Calm, cute, gradually increasing complexity, but it is desirable to know English, as it is easy to miss what you need to do for the correct registration of parcels. I dumbed down the parcels on the third day - didn't understand what to do depending on weight. Need to reread the instructions. More to the minuses I will refer to the fact that the square screen is not quite the same mouse coordinates, which complicates the game.
However, I consider it a good time-killer

This should be resolved with the latest version. Now It will work with any resolution.
Great!

Wow, that's cute).
I figured it out from the second time and even almost did not derped, reaching the end of the game, except that once I did not realize that you do not need to charge for the number of stamps, but for their total face value, so one fail, well, and on the last day did not have time to serve for a ponka, but okay).
I put it in my folder of cute games about Derpy)
And Especially like for little jokes like boops and the "HiHi Derpy Are you going to send me?" thing when you're stamping a Pon's nose and not a letter.

PostPoners is a competently made game, looks and feels like a professional job. Clear tutorial and progression, thoughtful gameplay design. There are cute little things like booping and stamping ponies. If the game has saves, then the author has already shown himself to be a skillful developer. A polished, quality, cute, little game - I really enjoyed it. Thank you!
