Ranked from 31 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
Very literally.

You have limited time during calm periods to hang up and dry laundry. During rainy periods you must move your laundry out the way of the rain.

As time progresses the rainy periods get worse until the full storm hits and the game ends.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Mostly all made by me, except:

Brackeys - 2D Character Controller: https://github.com/Brackeys/2D-Character-Controller/blob/master/CharacterControl...
Cainos - Pixel Art Platformer - Village Props: https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/2d/environments/pixel-art-platformer-villa...

Love the concept for this game! It was great how you did the graphics for the clothes drying and having them glow when dry/darken when rained on

Submitted

Such a creative idea! With the right team this could be a very awesome game. Keep practicing game development. Your ideas will be valuable wherever you end up.

Submitted

How did you even come up with this idea! Good one.

Hee-ho. Very fun game. Nice job

Very fun game! It really fits the theme because I started stressing out when the rain came! Awesome work!

Submitted

This concept is so fun. I was laughing before even playing with that "begin laundry experience" button. I also love how the laundry glows. Very nice base for a game, props!

I like the unique and funny idea of this game! Had a lot of fun playing it! Good job!

I see that you are really good at making seemingly bad games really fun :D

The rain mechanic is really good and didn't feel the movement to be janky as mentioned. Everything was smooth. Took some to figure out the controls but once I did it was fun(Not going through tutorials is an entirely me thing ;D).

The UI is really clean. I would have loved such UI in my game.

Kudos for making a fun game!!

Thanks! I definitely think the controls could have been simpler - having two separate buttons was a bit of a shortcut to get the prototype working and then I didn't have time to fix it later. Something for me to work on for next time I think!

Glad you enjoyed it!

A vert fun and unique idea! Had a lot of fun playing it, and I really enjoyed moving the clothes out of the way of the water just in time, added a lot of pressure!

Haha this game made me laugh, funny idea and good execution :))

This is a really unique idea, I love it! I also really like that I'm able to carry multiple items of clothing at once, great work!

Submitted(+1)

This reminds me of a Game & Watch game, which I always enjoy. I appreciate the storm warnings that allow the player to spot which clothing is in danger of getting wet. I'd like it if the positions available on each clothing line were clearer, since I didn't know that 3 pieces of clothing was the limit for each line and that I had to be pretty close to the empty spaces of lines to add additional pieces. Awesome work.

Thanks for the feedback! You're right about making the hanging positions more clear - it was obivious to me from making it, and I hadn't even considered it wouldnt be to others! Glad you enjoyed it otherwise!

The gameplay makes up for the lack of audio and unfinished parts, it's fun. I like the concept too it's neat. Nice work.

The gameplay itself is really fun, and I think that's all that matters! It's fast-paced enough to keep you engaged, while still simple enough to avoid being overwhelming. The charm in its visuals adds to the overall experience. With some added sound effects and music, this game would be even better. Great job!

The gameplay itself is really fun, and I think that's all that matters! It's fast enough to keep you on your toes, but simple enough to not get overwhelmed. It's looks have a certain charm to them as well. If only there were some sound effects and music too...

Overall, great entry. Nice job!

This was actually really really fun, right and left click to hang and pick up is a bit confusing. Other than that I really enjoyed the concept. With sounds and musics it would make it really nice

Submitted(+1)

Haha really fun ideia! Nice work! So cool that even if i collected the dry clothes if i go under the rain it still gets wet! Nice touch. With sound and a proper art this game would be amazing!

You mentioned a lack of time at the end of your game, but despite this I can clearly see the vision for the game, and it's mechanics / strategies are fun at their core! Running around micromanaging the line while the storm is raging was a really fun experience, and at the end of the day that's one of the most important things a game can do! Great job!

Quick to pickup and some challenge involved in getting something dry. Enjoyed the gameplay and the puns!

This game is much more fun that i expected it be! thoroughly enjoyed playing it! Reminds you of what's actually important in video games. Great!
