Hey there, I played through your game in this video at 41:05

:o This game is very cute and original, I love it!

Submitted

Bonus point for the UI!

A simple but really cool concept that gets expanded into a very intricate puzzler, reminds me of Portal in that regard. Great Job!

Coming from a community thread here :D

The gameplay is really innovative, love the artstyle & music as well!

Just one thing that we think could be improved: the control (sometimes find it difficult to plug in correctly immediately)

Submitted

Good example of what you can do with a minimalist art style. The game looks great imo

I really enjoyed the concept. I did have some frustrations like others mentioned around having to "overshoot" with the plug to get it to snap in. That seems like a really easy fix though

The physics based nature of it is something I can't tell if I love or hate haha. There were certain times I felt like I should have completed a puzzle, but it didn't because the box just barely rolled off.... the ability to restart makes that easy enough though. Things like the truck just driving off seem wacky enough that it makes me think this could be an intentional part of it. 

I liked the scene scene changes by camera rotation and how the menu interface acted as a mini tutorial

Overall very memorable!

When the truck drove off the platform, that's when I fell in love with this game. 

I love the graphics and the idea! I actually had quite a fun time when playing it, and i even yelled out "Swish!" when i got the last level. It was quite satisfying really.

The issues i had was with depth perception and plugging in the plug.

Very original idea. Art style is great as well. I think it would be even better if the connector was easier to control, I agree with Psychpsyo about controls. It feels like connector drags behind my mouse which doesn't feel very responsive. Apart from that I'd like to see improved version of this game in the future :D

I really liked it! The one thing that could be improved (apart from more levels, obviously) is that dragging the plug onto a socked is a bit hard at times, especially since it tends to drag behind your cursor a bit.

Submitted

I like the idea of the mechanic, and the visuals and music sure are great. However, I feel like the idea of only powering one thing at at time could have lead to a lot more interesting puzzles, but this is still really good for 48 hours

Submitted

This was amazingly fun!

It's honestly a perfect puzzle game!

My favourite part is the flying truck, but I also enjoyed the box physics XD

Hey, we made a GMTK game too. Check it out!

Super nice graphics, clunky controls. wrestled with the controls to finish the last level, which is as straight-forward as other puzzles.

Fun toy to play with, but can explore deeper into how being able to plug only to one place can bring you.

Perhaps one plug powers multiple contraptions, or some plugs move around by themselves.

Wild idea: perhaps we can even utilize the power cord to do something...

I feel like the power button is a bit excess. Could have just brought the power the moment we plug it in.

Again, graphics very beautiful, ui is brilliant. the title screen doubles as a tutorial. generally a fun thing to play with the physics like this.

Submitted

Dude i a fan of what u did here, great work on the jam man, i would like to work with u in the future jam 

Submitted

Nice idea, nice visuals, controls are a bit finicky though.

I wished it had more levels, which is a good sign !

Really fun game with great physics and nice artstyle. The adherence to the theme is a bit weaker and the plug can be sometimes really hard to control, but it's fun and overall a really good job!

Sets off Windows Virus Scanner.

Nice game, the idea is really interesting and the implementation is well polished. The art is also nice and the music is really pleasant. The problem I have with the game is that sometimes the physics makes it a game of trial and error till the box behaves as the player wish. Other than that, the game was really pleasant to play.

Submitted

Game looks great and it has a lot of neat little polishing touches (like the start menu and going to the next level).

It's a very nice concept, but I think the execution isn't as good as it could've been if 'activating' the different sections of the level felt good and snappy. As it is, dragging the plug around felt frustrating.

All the same, congratulations on the game! Good job!

i enjoyed this one quite a bit! the visuals and the music were very nice, and the gameplay was an  overall pleasant experience.  my one gripe would be that the plug could be very finicky when trying to actually plug it in.  a few times i would have the cursor directly over the socket, but i had to move it so the in game plug was over the socket.
