Can you make a linux build, please?

Really cool Game. But i didnt get why i got game over?

bloodjohn 2014-08-25 05:41

WOW. Momy, i'm woking at factory! :)
Really funny game.

Hard to win. But great concept and gameplay.

jaloko 2014-08-25 05:42

I loved the gameplay. Nice.

Surprisingly interesting gameplay, it kept me hooked for a few minutes. I wish the boxes weren't so physics based though, it makes the gameplay kinda frustrating.

Like the sounds and the idea of a kind of time management thing you have goin on. Pretty hard though. Any tips? I couldn't get far enough in to see the theme.

ervin 2014-08-25 05:48

You get game over when you run out of money - every action costs money, eventually you run out. Could be make a lot clearer though, some visual indications. And it's not really tuned right, maybe too difficult. Physics->Frustration is supposed to be the random element there, but some of the "machines" are getting stuck a bit too much :).

OMG This game is amazing. I love how you the music is worked into the gameplay. Very clever. Very well done.

superzac 2014-08-25 05:49

I love the way the sound you make when you move almost makes a beat. Very difficult game, but a cool idea.

ervin 2014-08-25 05:49

Tips - get just 3 boxes to the end before putting more through, then you'll have enough money to upgrade a bot or two. But it's pretty hard :/.

I've tried this a bunch of times and never made it past 1 robot. I don't even feel as if I'm improving. I think either I'm missing something, I'm not good enough at time management, or this game is just too hard.

Oh my this is so much fun! Totally bookmarked it haha was having a blast while playing!!

super-hamster 2014-08-25 06:05

Cool concept and it took a long time for me to figure out how the game worked. Good job!

Excellent sound design! It was almost like a rhythm game when things got going.

Boxes sometimes seem to glitch out or be missed by robots even when you replace all the factory workers, however.

Overall very clever idea.

Overall very clever idea.

(commenting again in case this replaces the earlier comment): I managed to beat it once, but trying to beat it again, glitches make it very frustrating. Otherwise it would be awesome! In particular, the vertical green lines are the worst offenders. Sometimes you can be standing at them, not even a robot, and yet the boxes will spin and hit the ground.

Another big issue is that sometimes the SAME box seems like it can repeatly trigger the floor hit, ending the game very quickly.

If the robots were good at carrying boxes and the boxes did not randomly drop out of the machines, it would be super satisfying, kind of like a playable blue-ball machine.

Nice game! I thought a classical mini game first. Actually, it uses physics engine! I was surprised.

gafblizzard 2014-08-26 03:31

One more comment, I thought you might be amused by this, developer: http://abload.de/img/boxeskkkqa.png

Having probably lost a few times because of glitches before, it's only fair that I won because of a glitch that stopped boxes from hitting the ground. :D

robber 2014-08-26 03:37

it's awesome!

ervin 2014-08-26 05:15

@GAFBlizzard, heh yep it does glitch quite a bit. I was kinda thinking that it's "machines are not perfect" type of system, but perhaps it's just more frustrating than fun. Still, can result in some funny scenarios.

luisdc 2014-08-27 11:50

Difficult game. Very difficult, but I liked the idea :)

joshk 2014-08-27 11:55

Really interesting concept, maybe a bit too difficult.

magmacrab 2014-08-27 12:04

This entry was really fun to play! I took me some time to figure out a good strategy, but I managed to beat it once.

pent 2014-08-28 19:33

This was really fun and once I got the hang of it I beat it! Short game but good concept
