Konami is currently working on remakes of Silent Hill 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, but they also have other exciting games in the pipeline. One of these lesser-known projects is Deliver at All Costs, developed by Far Out Games.
This game is a comedic homage to classic Grand Theft Auto games set in an alternate 1950s America. Players step into the shoes of farm boy Winston Green, who becomes a delivery man with a trusty pickup truck in the chaotic town of St. Monique.
During a recent preview event, I had the opportunity to play the first 90 minutes of Deliver At All Costs, and it left me impressed. The game promises to be a hilarious vehicular comedy filled with creative gags that keep players entertained.
Special delivery
Deliver At All Costs is a top-down driving game where players embark on increasingly bizarre delivery missions in a beat-up truck. Originally created as a viral hit called Delivery Man, the expanded version by Far Out Games offers a narrative-focused adventure spanning over 10 hours.
The game begins with Winston Green joining a delivery company called We Deliver, only to find himself tackling absurd tasks that turn mundane deliveries into chaotic adventures filled with slapstick humor.
Each mission presents new challenges, such as transporting fireworks or watermelons while navigating through a destructible environment. The unpredictable nature of St. Monique keeps players on their toes, ensuring emergent accidents and hilarious scenarios.
Despite some rough edges like poor-quality voice acting, Deliver At All Costs shows promise in offering a uniquely entertaining gaming experience. It blends nostalgia with inventiveness, showcasing the value of smaller games in the industry.
With its playful and creative approach, Deliver At All Costs could be a standout title amidst Konami’s lineup of upcoming games.
