I like the idea for the game! The music really helped to set the comical tone and made it even more enjoyable.
If you were to continue this, I would recommend making it more discernable what can be cleaned and what can't. I sometimes found mashing E at things I thought could be cleaned (like the piece of bread on the wall), and skipping over things that could (like the ajar chairs). Also I'd love to see you explore how you can expand upon this beyond simply picking up messes.
Overall though I enjoyed the game, and as a one-person project it was pretty good! Well done!
Also I couldn't stop staring at that bath water shader! So pretty..... :P
I am very glad you enjoyed it! Fun fact, that water shader? Is just a normal material shader lmao, nothing special about it!
And yes, I will most diffidently continue this.
In middle the music stoped for sometime not sure if done on purpose or a bug good game
pretty nice, I really like the idea and the music fits very well :)
Hey! Have played and rated. Well done on completing the jam. Looks like you're pretty close to the 20 ratings you need.
Interesting concept! It's hard a bit to aim at some object to have the message appear. But I enjoyed it :D
Really nice concept. I loved how chaos slowly built over time. This could easily be some sort of horror game too. Also there should be a better way to know what can be cleaned (like a glowing outline) since I was a little confused the first time around.
OH! Thank you for that idea! Maybe for the first time you have to clean it, I can give it an outline so you learn that item's placement!
Fun game and interesting concept. I love how the entire house screamed BLENDER with those monkey models. My only issues were having to point exactly at things to pick them up / clean and not having clue about what to clean and what not to. For example, some coffee mugs had CLEAN prompt but some (near the laptop) didn't have the option to pick. Apart from that had fun playing it. Best of luck for the jam.
Cool dynamic game! nice graphics! but there is some probleme with camera and i would like to more size colliders objects.
Btw i make review video of your game) check this and play my game) (P.S. iam from russia sp unfortunately you cant understand what we saying, but i think you will be enjoy with it)

I don't see what's wrong with the camera in the video? Please elaborate?
I think its not camera. Just when colliders contact in narrow area its little yanky.

Great concept, but I got a headache because of the jittering fps camera. I loved the Blender monkeys in the house:D
Jittering? Can you explain a bit more? This is the first time I heard of that.
For me, the camera was moving very fast and bobbing at every step. It felt like it was not moving smoothly, but teleporting very fast if you get what I mean. Are you updating the camera position in LateUpdate() ?
Nope, was just using the standard character controller asset from unity. I will look into it after the Game Jam.
Nice game. It was very hard sometimes to find props but hey it's called chaos :D
Yea let's not open pandoras box again, definitely not a good idea the first, or the second time, or any time.
Legitimately though this was a very interesting game, the first minute or so is definitely a big ol' fake out though before it starts going crazy. I was sitting there going "this isn't that hard" then the music stopped, and I regretted everything I said within seconds.
There were definitely some times where certain things weren't clearly "out of place" or it wasn't clear how to "clean them", ex. suzanne got turned around and I didn't know how to fix it. So I feel like being a bit more clear on that front. Plus making it a little less infuriating to actually clean things might be a good idea because it was relatively annoying on some items just to be able to actually pick them up etc..
You could possibly add complexity in some other way, for example cleaning tools or something similar could be interesting to implement.
Overall though definitely as I said, a very interesting and very intense game once it starts going. Definitely gonna try and beat that record, but dang is it hard.
The rotating suzanne wasn't something that you can clean lmao, it's just a random object that's rotating around all the time. I am glad you enjoyed it tho! And we will for sure take the tools in mind! Going to be updating this after the jam is over :D
I like the environment, controls were pretty tight. Good work!
Nice graphics
Pls rate my game too..

I never tough I would have fun playing a cleaning simulator haha but I did! Great game the graphics are very cool :D
Interesting concept! My only problem is that collision detection for clearing up things is not very good, but it is a easy fix!
You mean for the very small items? They are supposed to be very difficult to pick up to add to the chaos.
Now I came to know that cleaning things is really chaotic :0
Fun game and interesting concept! I think making it more clear what the lose condition is could help players a bit.
The lose condition is on the main page 20% or less is a lose.
Love the concept! Definitely made me second guess myself when I thought I had cleaned something just to see it return.
Would've definitely loved to see the game a bit more tipped into chaos. While the game was interesting, it didn't feel too much like chaos and more of just a regular cleaning simulator.
Overall good work though! Always great to see Suzanne make her way into games. Feel free to rate our game as well!
Thanks! May I know what your record got up to? The chaos usually starts after 2 minutes. We give the player 2 minutes to warm up and then we ramp up the speed. After only like 1-2 minutes you'll get to the point where an item changes every second.
I wasn’t looking at the time, but I lost I think as soon as In the Hall of the Mountain King ended? It was the second piece that played.
I see, my own record is 18 minutes. But that is due to me knowing the entire map already. I hope you enjoyed playing it tho :D
Nice game, fun to play.
