I was sort confused at the start. Thought my keyboard input wasn't working. Then realize I had to wait for the npc to finish his thing.

@argo15 It says about that in the description

Haha, this game idea is really funny. The first time I played I scored -221 but the second time I scored 1. I kind of got lucky the second time because the roommate push 3 items together into the wall so it was easy for me to move them back as a clump.

long cutscene

Waiting for 40 seconds is not really fun, especially when the play session has the same duration.
Some collisions were strange too, but the concept could be good. You should just tweak a little more the details.

Cute game. Good work on the characterization of the friend. I really started to hate him when, on his way out of the room, he grabbed a table and pulled it all the way to the left wall. I had trouble knowing when to begin... it wasn't until I read argo's comment that I knew it wasn't a glitch with my input... A small in-game indication might be something to look into.

A little confusing at the beginning.

Cool idea! Really conveys the feeling of "obnoxiousness"

That cutscene was obnoxiously long.

And the amount of time you're given to put the furniture back in place is obnoxiously short.

I can't say that there's much fun here, or even much potential that I see. If there was more time to get the furniture in place (right now, it seems impossible) and the cutscene wasn't so tediously long, it would still be a frustrating/dull game of clumsily pushing around blocks.

Sorry.

Allotted time for the setup and gameplay is making this hard to play. I really like the core concept though. Would work great with a little polish.

Is this really what being OCD is like? Brutal.

_alts 2013-05-03 08:34

I don't personally see the minimalism <-> OCD connection, but I find this entry really amusing. The actual feel of pushing the furniture around feels a bit clumsy, but I feel like this game is more about the scenario than the actual mechanic, and it plays that well.

Nice and simple. Wish there were more levels.

Lol :) Funny intro! Table looks like a mooooonster ))))

It is indeed a horror to watch the friend for so long. In fact, it's so bad to watch for 40 seconds that I did not give it another try. Maybe a fast forward button could have helped to make the game more fun?

I scored 12 without moving anything. Somthing's broken in your scoring systemm :) Also furnitures that get put on the sides can't be moved back. I think. But that's a funny idea you had there, it just lacks a bit of polishing!
