Really cool game!

The gameplay is really engaging and the overall vibe is spot on!

Loved all the character references, specially the isabel one :)

Totally deserved :)

This has got to be the most creative and endearing idea I've seen so far, really great design :) Also the art and just everything is so well made, you can be really proud of what you created!

Developer

Thanks!

Great work, lots of effort went into this. As a 3D artist, this kind of feels like UV packing :D Good job!

Developer(+1)

Ha! Great comparison.

Submitted(+1)

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!

Developer

Yeah the concept could be expanded on a lot. Also deciding to keep items between days would add interesting mechanics. Thanks for playing!

Very nice and cute game!

Developer

Thanks for checking it out!

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! 

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the comment :)

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

Developer(+1)

I'm so glad you liked the cat!

Interesting 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!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for taking the time to play!

Loved it ! Packing up weird shapes is my fav genre of game (50 pourcents of my own games x)) and this one didn't disapoint ! And the art omg ! So so so beautiful, all the animation for the character, and the color palette, this game is full of personnality that's amazing ! Also loved all the easter eggs, very very well done !

Developer

Thanks for playing it, good to know he mechanics held up, it's out first attempt at the genre.

Submitted(+2)

One 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!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+3)

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

Developer

Thanks for coming over from your game to try out ours!

awesome presentation, great art that gives a very comfy feel. I loved all the references! the gameplay loop is fun, and it fits the theme extremely well.

Submitted(+2)

This 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!

Submitted(+2)

This was a pretty neat concept! The character animations made me chuckle too! Great work!

Submitted(+2)

Love the artwork! Interesting game concept :)

I love the art and aesthetics of a good old game. 5/5 presentation! Great job.

Very creative.  Nice twist on the unseen back office of video games.  Plays like a classic game with great characters, music, and backgrounds.   Always thought I was good at packing, but clearly I have much to learn.

Submitted(+1)

Beautiful 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!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing, the shopping menu could definitely bee improved to show the items and their sizes.
