Amazing submission! It was super fun to play. It’s incredible to provide a puzzle game with this quality in 7 days.

I have one little comment: I think there are too many avoidable textual explanations in the game. For example: instead of explaining how the drill works, why not install the drill for us in the first level where it appears? :-) Also, I’ve got a hard time navigating between the drill and the different conveyors, it didn’t felt natural. Wouldn’t it be better to have the drill with the others?

Hello, thank you for the feedback! Yeah I can definitely get rid of a lot of the tutorials, I guess the time crunch didn't make me think of that. As for the buildings I guess I was more-so future proofing, but I do see what you mean by the unnatural nature of it. I'll keep that in mind for possible future work on this game. Again thank you!

This was an awesome submission. The creativity in solutions you could get from just a few pieces and rotation mechanics was great.

this was fun, i love puzzle games and didn't think how even just moving all the materials around without them destroying each other would be challenging. and the simplistic design is really good

This is a very cool game. really like the games where you alter the environment instead of controlling the player.
