Nice concept, but very hard to play. Would be better if we could move the magnet without activating it. Sometime I would also put a car in the correct lane, but then the correct lane changes and I cannot do anything about it :D

Cool idea, I feel like keyboard controls would have been better for this though. Also the "desired" item for the recycle bins seem to switch a little too fast, by the time the item is at the end of the belt it already wants a different item (if I understood that system correctly).

Totally agree on the item swap thing. I realized it a bit too close to the submission time and had to keep it in.

The mouse control only was something purposeful. I'd originally planned on the player controlling multiple magnets on multiple belts, but ran out of time. Also, I wanted an interface that would also work on mobile.

Thank you for playing and the feedback!

Oh hey, I was pretty close to making something similar haha. Well done on the concept. I wasn't 100% sure what the exact goal is even after the tutorial (i yeeted all metal on the yellow belt, is that correct?)
As others have already mentioned, items get unstuck from the magnet a bit too abruptly. The mechanic in on itself is good (move slowly to avoid dropping them) but it was very hard to tell and a bit inconsistent when they would get unstuck. Cool game regardless!

Interesting game concept.  Kind of tricky to keep objects on the magnet and then moving them disrupts other objects on the belts.  Definitely tricky.  Also seems you have to refresh the game page in order to play again.  Should add a button on your end screen for that!

I didn't really understand the mechanics lol. But pretty nice segregation game.
