what a unique concept! cool physics, i think it was executed pretty well, as mentioned before already i also wasn’t sure how to give the money to the checkout guy so I wasn’t able to get past the first level, but very solid and fun entry!
Really interesting concept! I like the idea of having different environments and puzzles for each of the locations.
I noticed that none of the NPCs had dialogue for some reason? I am on linux, so I'm curious if it's an OS-specific bug. I wish I was able to see what people were saying
Also, it looks like the physics engine panics a little bit whenever the claw presses many items into the floor or walls. Maybe making the claw itself also be a physics object would help, but I'm not sure if there would be other side effects to the gameplay.
Nice work!
The first guy requires that you put exact change money by him then interact with him to spawn the escalator
TAKE MY MONEY “GUY” !!
The green guy wasn’t taking my money :(
I like the idea of it, and you captured the experience of playing real life crane games with it struggling to grab stuff :D (not a criticism, once I got the hang of it it wasn’t too hard to pick stuff up with it!).
I wasn’t sure how to give the money to the checkout guy so I wasn’t able to get past the first level unfortunately. I tired left clicking him and throwing it at him, but if I needed to do something different then let me know and I’ll try the rest of it!
I like crane games , and integrating it with prizes like coffee ingredients is creative and a fun change from the norm! That being said, I found it slightly confusing to figure out what to do, I could see I needed to give the first floor guy some money but I wasn't sure how to hand it over, like whether to throw it or hold in inventory and talk.
