Wow! Just a fantastic physics puzzler! The art is both adorable and readable, and the input is smooth and intuitive.
Great work!
Hey, you're Clark Padmore--you won last year's Jam! Thanks so much, the praise means a lot coming from you since your winning entry was also a puzzle game with awesome retro art. I learned a lot playing your game. And extra thank you for playing to the end and even copping the high score! There were a couple things that made the game harder than I intended, so I don't blame some players from stopping midway through. Cheers!
Really fun (and funny) game! The octopus bartender kinda reminds me of that one DLC in Octodad. Love the unique gameplay of gently moving wine glasses! The existence of achievements was an addition that surprised me, one of the few games this jam to have them! I can imagine future levels having bottles and more kinds of glasses that'll need adjusting (maybe a level could even involve tipping over a bottle to pour its contents into a shot glass?)
Another feature for a future update that'll help would be the ability to move the arms up and down a bit for even more control over them!
Thank you so much for playing and for the detailed feedback. Those are great ideas! I was considering different glasses with different centers of gravity but pouring a drink would be so much for fun and unique! And the ability to control the hands when you want to try a different maneuver could be the thing to get the game over the edge to unlock a new level of complexity. Thank you again so much!
It's a little hard but it's still fun!
Thank you!
This game is awesome! The art music mechanics and theme are all working together perfectly. I found it super unique and satisfying having to be precise while controlling both arms! I was playing on my large monitor and I had to zoom the page out to see everything. I also ran into a bug on level 6 where the arm on the right side of the screen wasn't really working properly. Regardless this is my favorite game so far and I give it 5 stars all around! Love the simple well thought out mechanic!
Thank you so much for your really kind praise and feedback! A few folks have had the zoom problem, so I'm going to try to get to the bottom of that and find out what's causing it. The arm getting stuck behind the glass or sometimes not coming out at all in the beginning is a bug I ran into as well when I was replaying after I'd submitted, so now I know it's not just a one off thing and needs to be fixed, cheers!
And I'm so happy you liked the game and the mechanics. Fine line between fun and frustrating, and while I know it's quite challenging for some players, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Does the game have large pixel dimensions? (Even if it doesn't I think you should still check the option to show the itch.io browser game full screen button too, that can usually help with problems like that!)
Omg I can't believe I didn't check that option! Just changed it, thanks for pointing that out! That would have helped a couple players who ad trouble with the window size.
Nice! And I can't believe how fast you responded!
I think my favorite game of the jam so far, in that its quite fun and a good challenge, makes great use of the theme, and the execution of this great octopus bartender character is very funny and really brings the game to the next level. Thanks for submitting!
Wow, that's such high praise! Thank you so much for playing. Once I decided the hands were going to stretch and come in from the side, I figured it had to be something like an octopus to make visual sense 😅
