I managed to grab the iron after too many times haha, I couldn't understand how to hold it, I had to press any key on the keyboard and move the mouse around to understand. The idea is nice, but but the controls need probably some update or a tutorial!

Fun and interesting concept, controls a little tricky at the start but okay once you get the hang of them. Nice art style too and fits the theme well! Very impressive for one person :)
Full points for innovation, and I think this fits the theme quite well, you are seizing with your hand what is probably considered by some to be a daily task. The hand articulation mechanic is well-implemented and really cool! I'm having fun just playing around with it. I managed 3 points. I would reverse the QWER controls, since the palm of the hand is usually facing away from you, so the buttons would correspond to the fingers from left-to-right, also increase the timer I think.
The WebGL version is a little finnicky, since it triggers a bunch of browser hotkeys. I'd recommend trying the desktop version for anybody else reading this.
Also, I just had to do this, sorry...
Thanks so much for the in depth feedback and kind words. What shortcuts in particular do you mean? So glad someone finally posted a picture haha! It's half the fun.
Update: I've just realised what you mean by the button layout and man, you are so right. It was supposed to reflect which fingers you physically have on each key but neglected to have the model itself reflect that.
I was trying a lot of times before i realise (only after your comment) that you need to hold finger button and at the same time use mousewheel and only then you can control fingers. It's very counterintuitive. Also i think it will be much better if desk would be lower. But in the end i really like idea and think it has potential, you even have great visuals, so mb if you polish your controls it will be awesome game!
Hey man thanks for the comment. Some people do seem to be struggling with the controls so thanks for persevering. I did want to strike a sense of awkwardness with the controls but it seems I might have overstepped the mark. The original scope was to have other morning preparation tasks ( pack your lunch, spray cologne, drink coffee etc) so I needed a fine degree of control. I'll revisit it in the future.
I managed to grab the iron and start ironing the clothes 😄
But i didn't know if the shirt was fully ironed? it changed colors then changed back to its original color and I just kept pressing the new clothes button I guess 😄 The controls were tough in the beginning especially because the controls screen disappears after some time.
😄 once i got the hang of it though, controlling the hand was no problem! good work!
I liked where this was going, but man I couldn't get the controls to behave for me. I ended up nudging the iron with the hand. IDK if it was just my computer but the QWER keys did nothing???May just be me not fully getting the controls lol xD. Loved the look and the idea, this would be my definition of "Extreme Ironing Simulator". Good Work!
