During the “Wholesome Snack” segment of The Game Awards, indie game Mail Time revealed its April 2023 launch. It also announced it will launch on PlayStation 5 and 4, in addition to the previously announced platforms of PC, Mac, and Nintendo Switch.
Mail Time is a puzzle platformer about a little forest sprite who delivers mail to the other forest critters. Through their deliveries, they learn about the lives and trials of the other characters. The adorable animated title is the work of solo developer Kela Van Der Deijl and is published by Freedom Games.
The trailer shown at The Game Awards revealed new locations and characters, including a picnic to explore and a hamster, rat, and squirrel that the player can deliver mail to. It also shows the customization features for the main character, whose appearance, name and pronouns can be changed according to the player’s wishes.
Van Der Deijl said in a statement: “Mail Time is now a delivery freeze closer to release! I hope everyone at The Game Awards enjoyed their animated trailer pack. Mail Time is now a delivery stop closer to release! I hope everyone at The Game Awards enjoyed their animated trailer pack.”
