Peggy's Post
As the new owner of a lighthouse-based post office, it's your role to sort mail, assign postage, and load parcels onto the correct delivery vehicle for shipping. Manage your earnings to upgrade your tools, purchase stamp packs, charter new ships, and above all else, pay off your loan in time -- or the lender *will* foreclose on your lighthouse.
We recommend starting with the 7-Day mode, as it gradually introduces the mechanics. There is no explicit tutorial at the moment, so we encourage you to click around, read the notes, take your time... there's lots of hidden things to discover :) Endless mode has no [some] additional content¹, however it starts with all mechanics available from day 1 -- for the sorting mail enthusiasts!
Originally made in 72h for Ludum Dare 53, everything from art, audio, programming etc. is all done by our two-person team. Currently in active development.

¹ the usage of "no" in this particular case is a poor example of the correct usage of "no", as endless mode does in fact have additional content in the form of a single rule/tool combo, the stamp collections book, and several upgrades boasting costs that surpass the buying-power of a postmaster with less than 7-days earnings, but nowhere near enough content to justify a mode that is endless. So here we are, over-explaining a wildly unimportant facet of a chronically under-explained almost-game-demo.
² whether the item in question performs a "rotate" or "use" is entirely dependent on the specific item and results may vary.

i deleted my save to start over but i still get the "abilities" from day 2 so i get big packages but not enough stamps so i run out fast...
stamp art is super cute
Super fun! i was stressed the last day since i had sm packages unable to be sent but i cleared my debt with $8 to spare
Everything you need in a cozy game. I've been playing the endless version and I'm only one stamp away from finishing the collection book. I want the stamps in real life to decorate my notebooks!
I love the music
I am obsessed and if there was any full version available for purchase I would have gotten it immediately :)
Nice game! I like the atmosphere.
I also released my first Unity shooter recently: https://joaco2010.itch.io/karsovialast-signal
Any feedback would be awesome.
very papers please vibes
ARE THERE ANY DEVELOPERS OR PPL GOOD WITH TECH HERE???
i just realized my 23 h+ save file might be deleted bc i was playing on browser. if anyone knows how i can download the save file and export it into the separate game file that i have downloaded on my computer i'd relaly appreciate it !! i cant loose my stamps =n= !!
hit TAB in the save log menu, you can download/upload save files from there! They’re cross-compatible, so you can download your save off the web version and upload to continue playing on a downloaded copy of the game
THANK YOU SOSOSOSO MUCH !!! ILY AND YOUR GUYS GAMES SO MUCH <33333
<3
has anyone been getting a bug in which the screen gets a red tint when you click on the stamp book? or is that a feature?
It hasn't happend to me, maybe you have a dying computer.
def a bug! send us a bug report in the discord and we’ll take a look!
i dont have/not allowed discord unfortunately, but this bug happened when i was on browser and tried to click on the stamp book when it was hidden behind the 'rate game' button. i think it was just a problem in the actual browser. not too big of a problem :)
phew, yeah it might be a browser thing – good to know :)
Was hoping someone would givemethelastsecretstamp.
which one are you missing? I'll tell you where to find it if you want
I found the two 75c ones and the glided stamp now I only need the other dollar one,^_^. Thanks sooo much.
It appears randomly in the newspaper, you'll need the scraper to unglue it :)
Thanks, What does it look like Tho?
its another pansy stamp but slightly darker. it appears in a quiz in the main info section
Today marks March 1st in game. That's a lot of package sorting!
That’s, respectfully, absolutely insane <3
thats audhd plus a computer addiction lol
but also, thanks, and i just got up to june 1st too today :)
Side effects warning is definitely correct. This game has been appearing in my dreams
Hi, came across this game while scrolling in the shower a couple nights ago, and was very interested in it visually seeming like Papers Please and No Umbrellas Allowed, so We saved it to look at the next morning and basically have not stopped playing it since. Love the more relaxed take on the paperwork/bookkeeping style of gameplay and the aesthetic is SO charming. Would love to see the game expanded upon at some point, especially with some more complicated and randomized/rotating mechanics and more of the smaller things like events occurring in the background that change the pace of the game and such, the stamp collecting is an amazing example of this extra kind of background stuff we are referring to. As is, amazing cozy game, but a little small and limited to be our mainstay comfort game for a significant amount of time. Will probably move on as soon as we are done with the stamp collections.
I love this game so much and have been playing nonstop, but i have some quiestions. i have 1 $4 bird stamp that i can't find in any of the packs for the life of me, is there something i missed. also i have a moon and constalation stamp that dont have a place on any of the stamp pages that i have so far, do i need to get another page, or do they just stay by themselves. TYSM AND I LOVE LOVE LOVE ALL OF THE CUTE STAMPS :)
the 4$ bird will spawn in the kan-post mystery pack! It’s just very rare atm, but you should get it eventually :) we have a special page in the works for the moon and constellation stamps <3
Really enjoyable! I've only played the 7 day mode yet, but I'm excited to crack into the "endless" mode!
ough what a lovely little game ;A; It's SO charming and relaxing to just... fill the boat with parcels. Putting on stamps. Cross referencing the little rules. love love love
i love this game so much, it was nice to come back to it after a while
Do you think you could maybe add a feature where you press T and it *Turns* things anticlockwise? I mean, pressing R 3 times is fine but I'm lazy like that lol
I think we could, it’d be a nice-to-have
or maybe a way to rotate stamps 45 degrees, you know, for all those oddly shaped curved packages
I) Free postage lol
I've actually become obsessed with these newspapers lol
Hey, is this based off the lighthouse in Nova Scotia? (I'm wondering because I live in Nova Scotia.)
yessir, the lovely Peggy’s Cove Lighthouse :)
Súper chill y entretenido! Me ha encantando. Aquí os dejo mi gameplay en español por si a alguien le interesa en este idioma!! https://youtu.be/aivzaefLXyU?si=rjx4DCgDC-Pqxjnq
Paper please vibe. but somehow i feel more relaxed playing this XD
love how it becomes a middle finger when im returning the package
Thank you for an amazing game! I've been hooked for a few weeks no
One thing that's a bit frustrating though is that I can't seem to finish the stamp collections, I'm missing one bird, one misc and about half the winterfest ones, and no matter how many times I play or reset the day, those won't appear. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks! If you’re playing v1.5.9, then it’s rng. Off-season, those specific stamps can only be spawned through mystery packs, and the chance is much lower than any non-seasonal stamps.
If you’re playing a previous version, then it’s a bug we’ve fixed for v1.5.9 – you can continue your previous save with this build.
Yeah I’ve got the latest version, so I guess I’ll keep playing Thanks for the reply!
GREAT GAME I LOVE IT DEFINILEY TURNED MY BRAIN ON :)
either theese hockey sticks are huge or theese boats are tiny
And there seems to be a high demand of tetris pieces too
I LOVE this game! I love the ambience, the cute stamps, the music!! This game is such a gem :)
Peggys cove? i literally used to work at the restaurant there lol
the good ol' sou wester
the mac file is detected as a broken app :///
That’s a sequoia-specific signing issue – the file is not actually broken, mac is just being dramatic
We’re currently testing out some workarounds, but in the meantime, the easiest way to get around that is to download/play through the itch app
yea, it's what i do nowadays anyway. although, even executing it from terminal doesn't seem to work, and that's usually ok for other itch games w/o needing the itch app. it's working perfectly fine now tho
maybe im dumb but i dont understand this game at all
sob :=(
Are you planning on adding more stamp collection categories? I've been using the spare pages for extra storage so i have literally every stamp ive seen collected in my book. I know there are some bugged missing stamps but I can't find *any* of the winterfest ones. also I've found a couple of other bugs, which ill leave in reply to this comment. overall GREAT game, im totally addicted and i cant wait to see what you do with it :)
when trying to pick up items using touch screen, they all stack and you cant put anything down
you usually cant put the shiny sticker in the collection book
Thanks! :) Yep, more stamp collection categories to come, with plans for more unique pages and puzzles
Winterfest stamps are currently bugged – we’ll upload a fix very soon
Unfortunately that touch-screen issue has been on the back burner for a while, but we’ll get around to it eventually
The shiny sticker: assuming this is about the secrets collection, each slot only accepts one unique stamp, specific to the secret uncovered
What is the bgm?
It’s original music we wrote for the game!
Amazing! The song is beautiful and very therapeutic. Will it be available on Spotify or Youtube in the future??
Thanks! And definitely :) prob youtube
man theres already so many fun easter eggs and i havent even started the game!
wait i just realised it gives them a middle finger when you try to return the package XD
This is extremely addicting and chill. I really appreciate the lack of any timer. This was a delight and the only reason I have to stop is bc I have work to do :p
Do you have any plans for a Steam release?
yes! and lots of plans for more content/expansion
i love this game to bits and pieces, its so cute and cozy
Ooh man somehow I unfollowed digitarium and didn't get the notification that this game updated!! I was so excited about the stamp collection too, I was looking forward to it and wondering when it would come T-T
But! No matter!! Fortunately for me I saw the update NOW and that means I spent all of yesterday sorting stamps <3 Did choose to start a new game and loose all of my beautiful halloween stamps bc I was worried about the backward compatibility, but ah well I will get them back eventually. And I love the stamp book so much it's so cute. I love the birds being named! and the mechanic where you get a new page/collection after completing a previous one, that's really satisfying too.
Now I wonder how to get the stamps I'm missing, though. I still need a 4$ bird stamp that I've never seen, and a handful off the misc ones. The newspaper said something about a stamp competition, maybe that will eventually unlock more..?
And I'm missing two of the rare 75c stamps, too, no idea where to look for these. Would love some hints for both the big bird stamp and the 75c ones if anyone happens to see this comment :3
[EDIT: I'm a dummy about the 75c stamps just figured that out xD Still don't know what big bird I am missing though! And one of the geometric ones too.]
Anyway thank you for the update it makes me really happy. I added some blank pages to my stamp book so i could do "aesthetic" stamp collections (I have a maritime themed page with all the fish and boat stamps and the anchor <3) and I'm having a grand time. I might need a stamp trash can though my poor desk is getting very cluttered bc I keep buying all the packs in hope of finding my elusive missing stamps xD
Thanks! A couple of those missing stamps are bugged (apologies) -- we should have a bugfix build up very, very soon! <3
fun game thanks
