I think the #1 thing this could use is crisp visual cues for what regions are drop targets.

Really great little game loop. I think difficult ramps up a bit too quickly, and I wish everything was quicker in general. Once you fall behind it's a slow painful death. Looove the graphics, I dunno why, they're really simple but the game has a nice atmosphere.

Hey thanks, I really appreciate it. Balancing is hard at the best of times! Thanks for playing and for your entry too!

Game good. So stress.

Decent game, love the polish, felt really good.

Got softlocked in the tutorial by accidentally putting cargo on the ship before the prompt to do it came around and then it never went away.

Later got a bit bamboozled when a ship took some of my cargo that was actually supposed to be on a different ship. (Didn't realize a separate ship comes for each order, but that's just me being silly)

Developer

Oh thanks that’s a good call out. I did test a few “shortcuts” on the tutorial to make sure it didn’t break everything, but obviously I missed that one! The idea was that if you missed the ship at that stage you’d go bankrupt and have to start again, but I may have messed that up with one of the final balance changes.

Thanks for playing and for the feedback!

Awesome game. Very polished. It even had a tutorial.

Difficult game but still had fun playing it! Tutorial was well made and I like the little day-night effects. Dropping items into the sea is a great and terrible feature haha

Very fun and frantic game, very challenging trying to juggle orders, production, and delivery all at once! Good looking game with great sound design!

Submitted

I find it a bit hard to keep up with the orders coming in, maybe a slower start would be good. But this is really well put together, great job!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback - balancing your own game is definitely hard :)

What a nice entry! There's some genuine gameplay here, and I like the aesthetics.

Very impressed given the timeframe!

Developer

Enjoyed my playthrough, the where-to-put-stuff didn't feel that clear to start with but once worked out it felt nice to drag and drop things into place. The Ui scale did leave me very close to my screen though!

Looked really nice, loved the theme

Developer

Thanks for the comment! Yeah I picked 1024x768 to preserve my sanity when developing and doing art. It might be a bit small on some screens lol.
