Very creative game. I saw others had trouble understanding the gameplay and I shared the same problem. The music was good though, just wish the tutorial was a bit better.
For some reason, I can t drag and drop the hexes.
Sorry about that! You need to click on the red hexes at the top to choose a shape to produce. Then, press the start button and you should be able to drag and drop those hexes from the red grids down onto the assembly line below.
If that's still not working for you then maybe you've discovered a new bug :)
A little hard to understand but good concept!
Maybe is because im not smart but i cant create the shapes faster that the hexagons.
Good Job!
Sorry it was hard to understand, but thanks for giving it a try anyways! More tutorialization would be good, but alas the time frame did not allow it.
Well Done, I really enjoyed it! The only thing I would change is the art and also resolve the duplicate bug which I encountered where I took out a hexagon and it stayed there.
Thanks for playing! Yes, I'm not much of an artists, haha. If I ever expanded this to a full version I would definitely find an artist friend to help out in that area.
My guess is the duplicate bug you saw was a consequence of the fact that new hexes will generate even if you don't use the old ones (as long as you pull them off the generator and drop them *somewhere*). My guess is you clicked on a hex and so it didn't move, but it was technically removed from the red generator. Regardless, that whole behavior is weird and unexpected so it's definitely an area that would be fixed in a full version.
Fun game! I love the factory theme and having to think ahead. Tricky on precision!
Glad you liked it. Thanks for playing!
A very fun game that makes you think a lot ahead of time. Really liked it. Couldn't get past level 4 though. Only thing is that sometimes it could be difficult to put the parts on the assembly line since i have to be very precise. But overall very interesting idea.
Glad you liked it! The precision was something I was worried about. I did a fair amount of programming work to try to make it less sensitive, but there's definitely room for improvement.
I liked the factory style vibe that the game emmits. I liked the concept and would probably play it for hours! Great Job!
Thanks! I'm glad the premise was understandable even though I didn't have time to make many art assets :)
This is such a fun little game! It’s basically got infinite replayability and does require a bit of skill. The levels are challenging enough to make you think and strategize. I love it!
Glad I got you thinking! Thanks for playing!
Really good game, a game that requires strategy! it is not unskiled labor at all ^^’
Thanks for playing! :)
Despite its title, "Unskilled Labor," I found the game required a fair amount of skill. I had to devise strategic ways to create shapes, compensating for the slow respawn times.
Haha, I hope the title isn't discouraging when the levels get more challenging :) Thanks for playing, Jacob!
Can't beat Level 4 but my brain died. Goodnight! :)
3 out of 5 levels completed ain't bad! Thanks for playing!
