Clean, Cute and Fun. Nice game.
This game was created in a lab to appeal to me in every way, from the gameplay to the visuals, music and charactrisation. I got frustrated that on the gun level I couldn't seem to place the long piece where I needed to. The outline was right on the edge of the level and it wouldn't let me put an object there.
Thank you so much! The bug you found is mentioned in the bug section on the page, it doesn't let you place objects on the sides of levels if there's something already there, since it loops back around, my bad!
Super unique game with a great art style and fun humour. Love the hand, and the whole level complete animation with the "approved" stamp is super satisfying. Wish you could also use the mouse to select components near you as I had to get into some tricky spots to grab certain items, although it's understandable if this is part of the gameplay process. Great entry and congrats to the team!
Thank you for the kind words! The grabbing system wasn't though of much, but it was made clear in playtesting that it would've been nice to have a little more control over which pieces you select. If we ever make this into a full game, that'll be added for sure.
pretty fun
Honestly the best game I've played so far.
Thank you! <3
Awesome game with pleasing graphics and interesting puzzles. Would love to see a full game with even more puzzles.
Thank you. I would definitely be up to make a full game out of this!
amazing game, i don't think i've ever play a gmtk jam game that took me an hour and was all from different puzzles, this is practically a full game, kinda reminds me of nitrome stuff in a way
the humor is great, i love the dialog the jokes and the visual jokes( i love the "live action" hand)
the idea is simple and im sure there are a ton of games that did something similar but this one is the best i've seen so far
also, not sure how much the respawn ability was meant to be used but i passed most of the levels mostly because of it, you can both teleport a piece with you when you teleport and also jump right before respawning, giving you some extra height
well done
edit: just noticed this doesn't have nearly as much ratings as it deserves, i hope my comment somehow helps with that
Thank you so much for the kind words!
Really great game!! Loved everything about it, the music, the art and the game!
5/5 on everything!
Very nice art and sounds! creative idea and fun to play. is a bit hard to get the hang of the controls but GJ! :)
Its a little hard to place things correctly, but its actually pretty fun and the art is awesome
Very well made! Love the movement and art
Tomorrow we might get the OST uploaded onto YouTube, so stay tuned!
The soundtrack is up on Youtube/Bandcamp now! More places to follow... :)
The audio, gameplay, polish is amazing!
5/5! I loved the audio!
The rest of the game was awesome too!
Absolutely love this! snappy movement and smooth controls go a long way in a game like this
A simple concept, made unimstakebly more enjoyable by making moving an object more tedious. I truly felt like a robot slave who was programmed to love my job. So emmersive~
Absolutely incredible. Laughter, suffering and pain.. sometimes the music glitched a bit but overall no bugs!
It's one of the best games from the GameJam. I've laughed a lot and suffered completing the levels. It looks like a very well polished game and the art is perfect.
9.9/10 (because there is a small bug where objects placed very close to the edge of the window affect the objects on the opposite side).
It gets so hard but it's so fun! I love the concept, the art, the soundtrack, and how clean everything looks!
Can be frustrating sometimes but it is fun. Love the photo pixel art :D
