FIRED? Me. But but ... there were too many of them. Great game ... surprisingly hard to do. Throwing stars, grenades, omg, is it really like that. Good sound. I can imagine going postal if this was real life.

So good! This mechanic worked really well.

hoqjed 2015-12-15 16:56

Extremely well done! I loved having to keep track of the packages, very stressful but in a good way :)

Also having the pushing of packages as physically based was a really nice touch, it made skill a very important part of the game. Well done!

gene-z 2015-12-15 16:58

Very Nice game

leuthil 2015-12-15 16:59

Really great game. The sound effect of the conveyer belt was a bit annoying but the mechanics were great. I even loved how the packages were pushed with physics and not just pre-canned animations. Nice tutorial as well :)

epictck 2015-12-15 17:01

Wow. Hard, but VERY WELL DONE. amazing.

epictck 2015-12-15 17:04

not sure if its my machine or your game, but the audio is looping the pushing sound over and over again while I was plan it for the 20th time..

huruey 2015-12-15 17:23

Nice game. It's a cool idea. The fact that the good and bad pushers are in different positions really helps increase the difficulty. You have to be thinking in two places at once.

Also, thanks for playing my game! :) I appreciate you might be skeptical that I did it entirely in the weekend. If you like you can check out my twitch channel, because I livestreamed almost the entire dev ^_^

Score 125, Highest streak 71, I should be doing this for a living.

If they pay like 2000 for 3 minutes, that is.

raincoven 2015-12-15 17:37

Sound of conveyor make my ears bleeding

blancohugo 2015-12-15 17:56

Haaaaaard game
I love the mechanic
Good job!

getdosed 2015-12-15 17:59

This game is the best one I've played so far! Such a simple concept, and yet done so well! 5/5

dooskington 2015-12-15 18:04

Cool game! Liked the sound and graphics. What sicko is putting swords into christmas gifts! Some elves are gonna get fired...

reccy 2015-12-15 18:04

Tough game, but I had a lot of fun playing it!
Great entry :D

drfallos 2015-12-15 18:10

Gj well done guys. So interesting game for improving memory and not only.

kaotiklabs 2015-12-15 18:11

Good little game, really liked the mechanics.

brainstorm 2015-12-15 18:11

Really well done game!

I voted 5/5 on every category except two 4/5 in Fun and Theme.

Great game, maybe it starts getting difficult too late, but I can't find more defects. :)

yvanor 2015-12-15 18:22

Nice little game, it looks easy but it's hard to keep an eye on the packages and the xray scanner. Well done ! ^^

wukkopi 2015-12-15 18:55

Really good memory/reaction/observation game. I really love this kind of games which are easy to learn but hard to master; at least for me it gave very hard time when the machine continuously x-ray'd present after present while I was pushing misaligned packages so that they wouldn't go to where they belonged :D

I didn't last long enough to see if the game got gradually harder but if it didn't, i suggest that for more hardcore players the belt could get faster, and package interval could get smaller. And optional "hard mode" where the color code of items would be omitted?

tomenluca 2015-12-15 19:07

Great mechanic, simple yet addictive.

aurel300 2015-12-15 20:22

Quite simple, but nice. I can imagine you could make it more interesting by adding levels with e.g. multiple belts, additional categories, different placement of the pistons - because that was what added the fun difficulty.

mrdave 2015-12-15 20:37

This is a great game for something so simple! The spacing was perfect always being just a little too much to keep track of. Really enjoyed this.

tayloranderson 2015-12-15 22:20

great game. simple but challenging, funny, original...everything i want from a ludum dare game

sichevoid 2015-12-15 22:25

Great game!

psychomonster 2015-12-16 01:04

Wow this fun. Nice job looking into all x-mas presents :D With all the weapins iside the boxes it ,ight be dangerous for santa in the next year :D Good job. +1 humor +1 gameplay!

justinooncx 2015-12-16 01:33

Pretty challenging game! With the positioning of the pistons, it was hard to coordinate which should be pushed!

mike-cullingham 2015-12-16 02:58

Really like this one. Nice graphics, responsive, funny, and on theme.

fpwong 2015-12-16 04:10

Good stuff, really liking all the rhythm / timing games coming out of this jam. Wish it sped up a bit faster more though.

broknecho 2015-12-16 05:37

I'm not fired. I quit.

Great job! Fantastic entry!

delahee 2015-12-16 10:45

Nice!

gagapete 2015-12-16 11:29

Very polished game with a lovely mechanic. The gameplay and graphics are well done, but I needed to lower the volume. The music sounds a bit to "aggressive" :)

tuism 2015-12-16 16:59

Solid :) A nice take on the old two button yes/no game - the simple yes no thing is different because of timing, and trying to remember that stuff gets hard when the queue gets longer than 3 parcels.

Good stuff :)

kebabskal 2015-12-16 17:43

Awesome. Surprisingly hard to manage queue up stuff in your head and push the buttons on the right time. Enjoyed that you actually used physics when pushing the presents. GJ!

shaunjs 2015-12-16 18:41

Good job! Has a good twist on this type of game =)

wan 2015-12-16 20:50

Nice idea, perfectly executed. Props for using a physics engine to make things more lively (& hard?), plus the burning package animation is pretty well done.

(Side note: I didn't rate the audio since I understood that it wasn't made during the jam... ?)

sealeft-studios 2015-12-16 22:27

What do you mean I can't bring my katana through customs? ;-) Heh, good use of the two buttons. I thought when starting that up/down might be better than left/right but found left/right worked really well. First few waves of packages were pretty easy, but once you screw one package up things rapidly degenerate. Fun!

01010111 2015-12-18 02:41

Wow! I thought it was going to be easy, but keeping track of the offset between the two options really shook me up! Awesome idea for a game, very well executed! Great job!

t-rex-interactive 2015-12-18 18:09

Score 114, streak 37.
Great game.

scorched 2015-12-22 21:00

HTML5 link asks for a login.
Fun elegant game to improve the reaction and memory! Good job!

jupiter_hadley 2016-01-11 22:45

Simple, well made, fun game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/qJFJJ6gq7Ak
