The Delivery Blob

The Delivery Blob is a 2D collect-a-thon platformer, developed and published by Routewire Games. It was released to Steam on September 24th, 2022 and the Nintendo Switch on October 8th, 2022. The game takes some inspiration from 3D Mario games like Super Mario Sunshine (as it is a collect-a-thon and is based around a unique gimmick).
== Summary ==
The story follows Blobbzy (real name Bentley Slimeson), a teenage Glooboid who works a summer job. His job revolves around him delivering items to blobs, and in return, he gets money. But, one day, when he is working an ordinary shift, his world is invaded by Noximn, an evil robot obsessed with planetary destruction. Now, with the help of some other Glooboids, he must eradicate the threat terrorizing Aeroglobia, while also continuing to do his job in the hopes of retrieving Aeroglobia’s power source.

|-|Opening=
Some opening credits fade in and out of view decently slowly on the currently black and starry screen. About 15 seconds later, the credits stop. The camera changes its focus on a ginormous spaceship. The camera zooms into the spaceship, showing robots building superweapons, training, maintaining the ship, etc. The camera then moves through a door, and the room that is through the door appears to be a throne room of sorts. Noximn is “sitting” on the throne at the end of the room.
: Ah... It feels so good to lead. I get to overpower puny little armies, capture entire species and work them to exhaustion, but the best of them all? I get to obliterate planets! It’s amazing!
: That’s good to hear, sir.
The sound of a door opening is heard.
: *sigh* What now?
: Sir, the ship’s fuel is running low.
: How low could it possibly be?
Lackey 2 shows Noximn a tablet. It shows the fuel level of the ship, and as expected, it is dangerously low.
: *frustrated* I suppose we’ll have to make a fuel run. *points to Lackey 1* You! Go to the radar room and search for planets.
: But, sir... we’re flying over a planet right now.
: Go land the ship, then!
: Y-Yes, sir! *flies out of the room*
: *looks at Lackey 2* And you. Go get me something to eat. You know what I like.
Lackey 2 also exits the room.
: Now, where was I? Ah, right. *continues to relax, smiling and chuckling to himself* 
The camera scrolls downwards quickly, stopping on a town in a grassy plain on the planet. There, slime-like blob creatures can be seen performing various tasks, such as shopping, cleaning, and delivering items to each other. The camera then focuses on one blob in particular: a green one with a blue cap. Like some of the other blobs, he was carrying a bag of assorted goods on his head, hopping over to a house to drop it off on the porch. After he does, he “knocks” on the door, then hops off. He repeats this another one or two times, then stops to take a breath.
: Ah... another successful day. Just a few more deliveries and I’ll be done for the week!
A shadow slowly darkens the sky.
: Huh, that’s weird. Didn’t think it would be cloudy today. *looks up, his expression changing from confused to scared* Wait... that’s not clouds...
The camera scrolls up a bit. A spaceship, specifically the one mentioned earlier, can be seen hovering overhead. Smaller, pod-like ships rain down on the planet. The camera scrolls down again, showing Blobbzy slowly moving backwards, away from one of the ships. The door of the ship opens, and robots pour out of it, chasing down the nearest blobs they can find. At least five of them start chasing down Blobbzy, causing him to flee. As he is looking at the ensuing chaos in the background, he trips on a rock and is sent careening down a hill, with the robots not too far behind. As he reaches the bottom, the doors of a large, lab-like building swing open, resulting in Blobbzy tumbling inside. The robots also reach the doors, but they close before the robots can enter. Fade to black.
|-|Tutorial=
As the screen fades in, we see Blobbzy rolling straight into a wall of the building. He bounces off it, looking dizzy. As he returns to full focus, another blob slinks up to him; a pinkish-purple one with a purple beanie.
: Are..are you okay?
: Ow... Yeah, I’m okay. Thanks for saving me back there.
: You're welcome, I suppose. Question—what is happening out there?
: I’m not entirely sure. One second, I’m looking up at a spaceship, and the next second, I’m running from robots!
: Oh, dear. That’s…not very good.
Something explodes outside, causing the two to flinch. There’s now banging on the (currently offscreen) doors.
: Yeah, no kidding! They’re trying to break the door!
: I knew something like this would happen eventually. Give me a second here.. *slinks over to a scanner-like device, scanning one of her eyes*
A beeping sound is heard, and a floor panel opens, with white light shining out of it.
: Woah…
: Get in, quickly! *jumps in, disappearing out of sight*
With player input, Blobbzy follows her down, jumping in before the doors are broken down. He disappears off-screen, and the floor panel closes. The screen fades to black, and after a (hopefully) short loading screen, the screen fades in again.
