Great use of theme, and nice cosy little cafe. I liked what I saw outside through the window as well - is it possible to go outside? I think a game like this has social importance, making us realise the amount of waste we produce, what's recyclable and what isn't. I can see it being used as a teaching tool for kids.
By the way, we're a team of Australian women and we were excited to see that you're doing cool things in WA! Just wanted to reach out and say hi ;)

Hi :)
Unfortunately, at this stage you can't go outside. I wanted to, but the assets I used for the walls look terrible on the other side and didn't have time to fix it. But I'll def aim to add with an update.
Yeah, I'm a solo dev in WA, and always keen to join teams for game jams. If you have an opening for a future one, I'd be keen to contribute.
I enjoyed the location the game too. Had little problem goin near a trash bin while holdin items, because can happen sometimes that the object is counted in the wrong bin. Anyway overall is a good game!
Nice little French cafe experience :) Just not enough back muscles hahaha, would've really enjoyed using that inconspicuous vacuum cleaner
First of all Awesome cover!
Uber use of theme implementation. At first, I was really thinking about what is recyclable and what is not. Then I started to teleport around and clean everything... and then I remembered the game title, and the throwing fun has begun. Had fun! I can see that for free in queststore with more levels and more recycle bins sponsored by facebook/goverment/lil dicky :).
It was pretty fun for such a simple concept! The environment was done well, and it was quite relaxing just sorting and throwing away trash.
Cute little experience. I couldn't get grabbing to work on my left hand, and I didn't realize coffee cups weren't recyclable!
Hi, thanks for giving it a go.
Yes, I think there was a big shock in the real-world when ppl found out you can't recycle takeaway cups. But I think they big companies are working on it. Like biodegradable cups.
Sadly, the controls are a known issue. They bugged out towards the end on the creation and broke. I'll be fixing it over the next week and upload a new version for people where you can pick up items and teleport with both hands.
Wanted to give it a try but unfortunately there is no input for me (Valve Index).
