Really like the idea and look of this. Found it a little hard to get to grips with - couldn't easily move the room to the guests. It was also very fast!

Really nice game and very innovative and unique. I happened to see your blog post for it and couldn't wait to try it out. My arm is pretty tired after playing it.

Wow! This game was really hectic to play. I really enjoyed playing the game and it was really exciting. the movement felt nice, the graphics look good and the way you taught how to play the game was neat! i only got 1 star by the end of the 30 days and I would say it's impossible to get 5! But it was a fun game! Really enjoyed it!

paradxil 2016-12-12 07:19

I'm glad you guys have enjoyed it!
Game play is fast.... I didn't have quite enough time to get the difficulty correct. On the android version I have gotten 4 stars, but not 5.

Really great game, at first it was a bit painful, but then i played it full screen and it was more enjoyable. Nice idea, nice graphics, a better difficulty balance would be perfect

Such a simple and beautifully elegant little game. Well done! I'd like to see another mechanic (not sure what?) to give the game some more depth.

Very cool idea and koncept! Very hectic indeed. Though I thought the days were a bit too long. Would have like shorter play sessions. But overall very impressed. Loved the simple art style.

Nice little game but I find the controlls a bit too unresponsive for it's difficulty. I guess the swiping works better on mobile but will still be not as responsive as arrow keys would be. Clicking doesn't work well, then the room goes where it wants because the smallest mouse movement is registered as a swipe.

insality 2016-12-12 08:17

the idea of LD theme is strong, simple nice implementation

The perfect strategy of the game, do the mouse spawns and press WASD keys in one moment to faster scroll other all hotel :))

Got some fun from your game! nice work

paidgeek 2016-12-12 08:18

Cool minimalistic art style and a fun idea. A bit too hard. Rapid WASD clicking on a mechanical keyboard is not pleasant :)

I made it to 12 days. And I had about 2 stars. This is fast paced (or at least that's how I was playing it). Awesome stuff.

paradxil 2016-12-12 16:12

Thanks for playing guys!! I'm glad you guys are enjoying it.

victorcrafty 2016-12-12 17:19

I realy like your idea and graphic look good . Keep doing games

eruiz00 2016-12-12 18:49

Should win

mutuware 2016-12-12 18:53

Nice pixel art and original!

timgarbos 2016-12-12 19:30

Great idea, but I hope you get to add that something extra that it's missing. The best strategy for me seemed to just keep moving in the same pattern reaching all of the rooms once in a while.

kurakurt 2016-12-12 20:26

One room? This is best theme realization!

indieyp 2016-12-12 20:34

Nice logic, i think it's great for mobile devices

mieeh 2016-12-12 21:53

Wow, that was hard and fast. Great use of theme and lovely graphics!

cyfixus 2016-12-12 21:56

that was rough they start wanting rooms so fast, probably a little easier on a device mousing a bit clunky but super fun. I really like your menu system with the shifting scene

sollinxp 2016-12-13 00:16

hard as hell, but very good use of theme, well done!

xclementx 2016-12-13 01:17

Some troubles with your website... Too bad !

paradxil 2016-12-13 01:25

Hmm I don't know what's wrong. I'll see what I can do.

paradxil 2016-12-13 01:29

Looks like the server is down. I'm working to get it fixed.

retrospecter 2016-12-13 03:27

It's an interesting idea, though the controls are a little bit clumsy, at least when I 'm trying to play with a mouse.

peachtreeoath 2016-12-13 05:25

Great way to brush up on my WASD skills. This is definitely one of the better uses of the theme I've seen so far.

tezra 2016-12-13 05:36

Great concept which is really funny but quite difficult, so I only got to Day 23. At first I was wondering if I should linger on some people longer to improve my hotel rating, but it seems not.

thatguyminib 2016-12-13 06:26

Haha pretty fun game! My fingers are tired now XD

mcrewind 2016-12-13 06:27

Fun game, very unique and fast paced, eye catching yet simple graphics. I like it!

onixowl 2016-12-13 07:36

Very nice idea!

candycreep 2016-12-13 08:33

So few pixels, yet so describing. Good job!

leondryaso 2016-12-13 09:01

Really nice game, maybe a bit too hard, the days could be shorter. Anyway, I'm gonna keep it on my phone for a while.

tubbys 2016-12-13 11:00

Nice idea, I keep losing, but I keep wanting to play, very nice

jk5000 2016-12-13 12:04

Great idea, but as you mentioned it is too fast and too hard. Best part of the game is animations and graphics.

wowods 2016-12-13 13:17

Game's quite fun, it's kinda hard to keep it running because guest is too fast to catch on.

thehighchairs 2016-12-13 13:39

love these kind of management games, and the hecticness of it!

p4nurge 2016-12-13 16:56

I seem to have lost all feeling in my left hand! That was a very hectic experience but a lot of fun too. I like the mechanic and the clean visual style. Good work!

paradxil 2016-12-13 16:58

Thanks for the feedback everyone! I love making a game people enjoy.

fidrik 2016-12-13 17:59

Simple game with a cool concept, I enjoyed playing it. Sometimes had difficulty with getting the room to the right place, but overall its a solid game! Well done.

negativice 2016-12-13 20:23

Very good twist on the one room theme :)

quaternius 2016-12-13 23:19

Really liked the idea, the controls were a bit funky tough! but overall i liked it.

uliana-galich 2016-12-14 09:00

Liked the art of the game and also mechanic is good

doomdad 2016-12-14 16:40

Really innovative game. It was quite hard also and first it was really hard to grasp the idea of the game. When you get it, it's really fun to play. There could have been some music or sound effects to give a response example for losing a star.

Overall, really fun hotel game!

rayriver 2016-12-15 01:41

Simple and fun!

alexbrainbox 2016-12-17 02:24

Interesting take. Somewhere between sliding block puzzle and whack a mole!

I played the Android version and now my index finger hurts from swiping ;)

lookslikesomething 2016-12-20 17:54

Hard game but really innovative!
I survive till day 16
