The pixel art is very good! Its a great game for 1 week. My best was 36.

If you were to keep working on it, it think it could go down the overcooked route -> with some preparation stations. So you need to take the correct gift, with the correct wrapping paper, with the correct ribbon, then send it to the correct gate. And have "orders" along to top to complete.

🕹️ Had a blast playing your game! 😄 Super fun yet a bit stressful at times. Managed to score 38 points! 🎉 Love the cute retro graphics, and the concept is really neat. 👍 Got a bit confused with the buttons sometimes, but overall, great job!

I like it! Controls felt a bit weird but once I knew what they were it was actually quite entertaining.. Well Done!

This game is really well put together. The graphics, whilst simple, look very clean and vibrant! The more you play the game the more hectic it gets, and I really enjoyed that. Running around fixing machines, putting away presents and racing the clock, this game is very very fun! It did take a while to figure out what to do however, I actually had to read the instructions lol. It was a very fun and cute game to play!

Congrats on your first game! The art is simple yet vibrant and cute. It took me a while to realize you were supposed to sort the boxes by their ribbon. After that, it was a very fun and hectic play!

I really love the the simple art style that fits perfectly with the mood of the game, very hectic in the long run. I also appreciated the clever usage of the different colors on the boxes to trick the playerìs eye

Really enjoyed it. It gets very hectic once you're up to about 80 gifts! I did find out, however, that the parts never respawn in later games if you run out of time while holding one, but that's about the only bug I found.

Thanks for the feedback! I actually found and fixed that bug but forgot to upload it. I have some other improvements in mind also. For example one you get all four conveyors needing repairs the game will also end. 

I really appreciate the feedback as this is the first time I ever really made something to share it.
