How does your game fit the theme?
The player is tasked with correctly measuring the weights of the given bags, using a scale, and magic weights which can be scaled. Scales are also used as a symbol of justice, yet the player will surely be treated unfairly. Unfortunately, that's all about how it "fits" the theme :/

This could be quite interesting short game if some twists and sound design was added. I can see this as the central mechanic to a shopping game, but on its own its just a bare mechanic. Still, the artstyle is clear and legible, which I enjoyed.
Creative use of the theme with how you tip the scale with scalable weights. Some more twist in the gameplay and added sound/music would be nice but good job nonetheless!
I was getting a bit frustrated at the start with how inaccurate scaling the weights up and down is until I realised I needed to use the little ones for precision, like you would with an actual set of scales! Really great implementation!
I love the take on the scale part! It is a very cool game concept, I like the minimalistic artstyle. It would benefit having a little bit of music/sounds. I had fun playing it, despite missing every single weighting!
Great job!
