This was great! I loved the references and the gameplay was surprisingly challenging! Something I think would be interesting is making items that have extra special effects, like maybe adding to the timer once they are placed. It might be a good idea to highlight the tiles you have already filled and the tiles that would be taken up by your held object while placing something, since it was hard to tell the exact shape of some items. It may also be interesting if there were some items that disappeared from your inventory if they are not sold the day you get them (if this was already a feature then maybe make it more clear). Great job overall!

This is so lovely!! I enjoyed every second! I would love to play a full version of this on my switch or some other cosy console. The character designs are so amazing and the music fits really well with the art! Well done!

Sort My Stuff!What a cozy game! I love the dialogue lines for each character and the items that they brought in haha. I understood some of the references and I absolutely love the humor! My highest score so far is 226 because I messed up a couple of days and took too long to sort things :x Being able to pet the cat is a very nice touch haha

Dungeon of the Pumpkin LordInteresting perspective on the item organization type of game.
There are some truly unique shapes, and the inclusion of conditions for certain items adds depth to the positioning
I'm also enjoying the art style, very charismatic. Congratulations on creating such a great game!

Shifting ShoresOne of my favourites so far, love it! The art style is so great, I love weighing up how much to spend vs how much I can cram in a crate, and the item effects were a great addition, really well thought out. I hope you guys make more after the jam!

Sort My Stuff!Love how the game looks and sounds. Reeks of personality. And a very fun idea on top. Sorting boxes can never get old!

Jawl BreakerThis is such a great idea and really satisfying to play. The tetris like puzzle to fit everything in gives it a great pace and the characters and artstyle are really appealing! Love it!

TARGET / ANTICHEATThis was a pretty neat concept! The character animations made me chuckle too! Great work!

Quest Giver: Hero MakerBeautiful game! I love all the references to other games. I like the slight change of music for the different characters. Gameplay is great, but time for packing is to short. I would prefer to see the objects in their real size in the shopping menu and in the placing-menu. That aside, I really enjoyed it!
