Because of the all black/and white art (which looked good by the way) it was very hard to see the smaller items like a fishhook (might be intended) i enjoyed playing this.

I like the game but you could add some colours to the graphics now it looks kinda blank
Had a good laugh when I started up the game, I actually refreshed it so I could see it again. Digging through the pit and throwing stuff out to find the things I needed was really fun and satisfying. It's like throwing your own garbage out.
Great job. "Cramzon is perfection~!"
OK first of all - great job. I really liked this one. It reminds me of Highlights magazine (not sure anyone remembers that). I don't agree that there should be color at all - that would make it way too easy. Right now part of the challenge is figuring out how to find the damn thing. This is the first game that made me laugh too like literally laugh out loud. Great work.
I really like the monotone art style which not only looked really nice but lent itself very well to a hidden object game too. The little jingles that play between levels are a stroke of genius.
1. Love the graphics and audio! 2. Some of the items are simply impossible to find! 3. The game mechanism can evolve further.
Haha "cramzon is perfection"! Nice game, more fun than it looked like.
Awesome game! Graphics are great. Just very tough to find the little things. P.S. the title reminds me of Amazon.
I love this game! The art style is very fun and so is the audio. Overall, a really cute and fun game!
Damnnnn i love the graphic of it. Its simple but its fun to play
I love it! The game is fun, easy to understand and to play, and I like that it's not too easy to find the objects. The graphic is great!
nice graphics! But it is very difficult to look for small white objects among the same white ones. But I enjoyed playing this game! Thank you!
Hi,
I ordered a camera from your website a while ago. Today my item arrived, and I could tell in one glance that the package was damaged. Not only that, but when I opened it I realized, to my surprise, that I was sent a whale and an old man's head instead.
0/10. Will never order from Cramzon again.
I actually like the art, its different style and overall coherent. I had some fun with physics, I see you used Unity, how did you set it up? just 2d colliders? because I couldn't manage to break it hehe.
@crimson Thanks for your feedback. We're sorry you received the wrong items and will work with our suppliers to ensure that this does not happen again. We are sending you a pre-paid box so you can "ship" back the whale and the old man's head. Your camera is on its way and should arrive within the day as we have upgraded your account to have Cramzon double prime shipping. Thanks for choosing Cramzon!
Whoa, fun concept! The art goes really well with the hidden object mechanic. I got quite into it, and finding the items become kind of a personal thing between me and the game. :P Good job!
Fun game, needed a real mouse instead of my touch pad to play it properly. Nice visual style and quirky presentation. I was trying to be quiet in the house so didn't have or rate audio but I think this was a fun game. My kids would love playing it.
This is the funnyiest game I've played so far, I love it ! The concept is great, and it's very fun and engaging to play. Not really anything much to say, congratulation !
the difficulty rose pretty fast at some point. so i was still trying just to dig stuff out but than the time wasn't enough - what I want to say is: nice game. nice dynamic and it indeed gets more difficult, so that's good. ;)
Hilarious little game, little hard to see the objects at times but still really enjoyable, a splash of colour wouldn't have gone a miss but might detract from the overall style!
Clever little game with a unique art style. The ordering of the UI buttons between levels caught me off guard for some reason and I quit the game after completing the first level. Great submission.
Cool idea and great implementation! It's easy to understand how and what you're supposed to be doing, and it's quite fun and a nice challenge. To start off it's easy enough to find the correct item and box it, but after a while it becomes borderline impossible. All the items go flying into low Earth orbit when you drag something out from the bottom, so you have to be really careful!
Sometimes you can see an item behind a few others but can't click it due to slightly big hitboxes, which is a bit frustrating. You have to move the other items away, but you then have to click the object super-quickly before the other things fall back down again. This is the main pain point of the game, I feel.
Great fun, I'm definitely coming back and playing this again!
I lolled at the title screen. I'm not sure that "hidden object" and "mining" are all that incompatible, but this is an alright game. I like a good parody.
@morphine I too remember the Highlights magazine 🙂. Thanks for the comments.
Nice game. I kept wondering if there was ever an ending to the game. I got to the point where 8 things were required, and stuff was spawning outside of the pit so I couldn't move it to the box. I think the inverted smile on the box was a nice touch. Some color could have helped, but maybe that would have made the game too easy. I like the wide variety of objects which didn't seem to ever get old. Some objects seemed a little out of proportion, but that's okay.
Was quite tricky to see the items - great fun nice mix of themes
This was a lot of fun! Up to four items was no trouble keeping in my head but when you suddenly threw eight at me I had to make up a little rhyme for the whole sequence instead of just memorising them one by one. Thought myself quite clever! Unfortunately the time limit was just too short and after some ten tries I ultimately had to give up on finding even six or seven items within the time limit despite having figured out a way to keep them all in my head. Would love to see an updated version with a bit more balancing in that regard because overall the concept is solid!
I see you opted into the audio category but I never heard any sound. Is this a problem on my end? I'll be happy to update my audio score if I can get it working, in that case. If not, I think you can opt out of that category if you want to. Anyway, I could definitely see some cute music going with this, like in Tumble Drop or Scribblenauts!
The art style is charming! I like the monochrome look because it feels like paper cutouts. You could probably run with that and take it even further with the stylisation in a post jam version! I think vector graphics would've been perfect for this tho, what with the zooming and so on.
The physics were well suited to the game!
Besides the balancing issue and possible lack of audio I don't really have any complaints besides the fact that the little fish hook seemed to be bugged out because I accidentally got one into the box and tried to throw it out again but for some reason it would only inch along no matter how far I moved the mouse cursor and I was ultimately unable to get it out of there. Makes me wonder if I'd also been unable to get it into the box if that was my goal, but the hook never showed up in my list of items to collect, so I never tried it.
Overall a fun jam game with great potential for further development. Nicely done!
@Ava Skoog There is audio which plays on both the title screen and in-game, but I'm not sure why it wouldn't be working for you. Sorry about that. Thanks for the in-depth review/critique. I appreciate it!
@recursor: Too late for me to correct it now, but I eventually figured out that for some reason web builds of Unity games all failed to play audio on this computer for some reason. :c Ended up just playing games I could download for the rest of the rating period to make sure that I wasn't missing anything. Of course you didn't have a non-web build anyway so I guess I wouldn't have been able to fix that anyhow. Sorry about that! ):
