I loved this, it was cute and entertaining and the art is pretty nice. I always feel great to see well done 3D artwork because usually the best looking game jam games tend to be pixel art...which is getting kind of boring if you ask me, so great job! At first I didn't understand that I had to put all the items in an order to clear a customer out, but I got that later.

Aaaaghh not enough blue boxes! :D This is quite a fun little game, I specially like the aesthetics and mood. Also feels reponsive and satisfying to play, best one I've played yet.

Stunning little game. I felt it was a bit of a shame that I seemed to be running out of time way before I got even close to running out of space. Maybe I wanted a little more chaos and rummaging, but since every object was useful (minus TNT) things ended up fairly tidy.. Slick graphics and charming music. Oodles of personality.

Overall a great entry utilizing the chaos of physics.

Very cool graphics and anim, it's all very cute! It would be cool to be able to retry one specific level (although it's neat to have all your previous shit already), but I kept being overwhelmed at level 3, and it gets a bit too tedious to redo the first levels before!

mowztouch 2018-08-14 03:40

Nice grqphics and music, well done, you finished your game :)

djlink 2018-08-14 10:00

surprisingly fun and addictive once you get into it, nice work, it's very polished

trystan-sarrade 2018-08-14 15:59

Great concept. Graphics are perfect (except the lever). It's easy to controls your items and put them in a nice place so you don't have them in your feet in this tiny room ! The idea of putting a TNT that explode and mess everything up is a fun idea.

Everything in the Univers, the graphics and the Gameplay is entertaining. Great job !

realmshb 2018-08-14 17:20

I loved every moment of your game great job :)

chrissx2 2018-08-14 18:26

@trystan-sarrade Thanks! Person responsible for the lever was informed and punished! :D

tomi 2018-08-14 19:18

Great graphic, gameplay is super fun and addictive

It would be nicer if you could pull the lever and get items a little bit faster

yscik 2018-08-14 19:54

Loving it, fun to play and looks great! Kept running low on blue boxes most of the time, maybe I should be spamming the resupply lever way more? :)

chrissx2 2018-08-14 20:09

@yscik Thanks! I think it's just a bad luck xD

wowa 2018-08-14 20:35

MORE BLUE BOXES! please :D .. this was fun, i think i'll play it later again.

chrissx2 2018-08-14 20:59

@wowa Thank You and please be patient while we implement loot box system xD

j/k ... I poked one of our programmes about that. Maybe he'll be able to do something about it :P.

wowa 2018-08-14 21:25

@chrissx2 this are great news..

Fun little game and beautiful visuals, really enjoyed it! I loved stacking and matching up the items closer to the customers so I could meet the demand faster. Also the customers "blah blah blah" cracked me up :)

mmmuscus 2018-08-14 22:36

I loved the music! Also the modells for the player and customers were really cute and in my opinion quite humorous. Just imagine those little gasmask faced guys screaming: "I want my nuke NOW!"

ltven0mi 2018-08-14 23:39

Awesome game!! The art is great, the sounds are great. It has a really good mood to it. The gameplay itself is very fun as well. Only thing I can say is that a way to close the game when it's in fullscreen would be a good addition. But aside from that, great job!!

nadia 2018-08-15 14:30

Wow! really nice game you have there!!! really enjoyed the feel of the game and liked the overall look of it aswell!

pixeljerry 2018-08-15 21:08

This is an absolutely incredible entry! I love everything about it, the art is fantastic, the music is spot-on, the controls are smooth and responsive and the animations are so well done!

Had a blast frantically trying to stack and organize supplies for the next day, trying to keep the customers happy.

I think you've got something really special here!

chkkll 2018-08-15 23:34

Great Visuals! Wanted to be able to throw objects around, specially the nuke lol. Awesome entry overall. Good Work!

chrissx2 2018-08-15 23:52

@chkkll Cheers. Yeah I think there should be a throw button. Maybe we'll add it if we continue working on this game :).

hugo-kieffer 2018-08-16 00:21

i really like the visual and the music of the game this was really fun to play i enjoy it good job!

karlipoppins 2018-08-16 04:27

Such an awesome and sweet little game! Loved the graphics and mood (Did you guys make that music as well?) Loved the concept and I had a lot of fun trying to triage things on shelves while surviving the customer rush. Super fun to play, great execution. Awesome job!

wetbox 2018-08-16 17:18

Amazing graphics! Modeling and lighting are beyond praise. Also I really like characters design and their animation. I spent much time to giving supply to inhabitants of the wasteland and I got a lot of fun! Thank you for your entry! 5/5

hauo 2018-08-16 17:40

Love it! By far one of the most fun and definitely most good looking games I have played so far. The presentation, both visually and audio, is really fitting and just fun. The physics mechanics are in for-front, and a is bit wonky at times (especially when trying to sell 3 items at ones), but adds to the charm. If anything, its that the difficulty ramped up a bit to fast in the from the fourth phase onwards. Never the less, great game.

panurge 2018-08-16 18:27

Awesome game! Reminded me of Overcooked and could be expanded into a similar full game, I think. Lots of scope for extra mechanics here. Art, sound, controls - all great. The gameplay itself was lots of fun too, although the difficulty spike around level 3 killed me every time! Thanks for a very enjoyable game.

jmswrnr 2018-08-16 18:46

A really fun game, good job. I found myself running out of space pretty quickly! :laughing:

smurf 2018-08-16 19:44

What a great little game! Brilliant simple concept, really fun to play, addictive gameplay.

robo-chiz 2018-08-16 21:17

Easily one of the best entries I've seen so far. Amazing graphics and a well polished experience. Well done!

chronicbite 2018-08-17 00:15

Everything is so coherent and polished i thought it was a lovely game. You did a very good job, congratulations

benjamin-l 2018-08-17 04:30

This was really fun! I love the amount of polish.

jay-elbourne 2018-08-17 05:17

For such a small scope it feels like a big game. Very polished and it really makes you feel rushed so great job.

bracula 2018-08-17 10:03

This is actually properly fun. I really really enjoyed playing it. The only thing I would have liked is a little bit more time between days to just organise your shop. I think that would make a nicer feeling for extended gameplay, like you can get on top of things for a bit. But then of course the explosives would throw that all off, which would make them feel even more urgent than they do. But it really is so good. Nice job

yamiog 2018-08-17 15:26

It was a pretty fun game other than the fact that it lagged on my computer sadly...

rainysolar 2018-08-17 16:33

The only shop in the wasteland! What a great idea! Very interesting gameplay, I really enjoyed it. Great work!

laura-angel 2018-08-17 18:11

One of my fav entries of this Ludum Dare! When I opened the game I didn't get what it had to do with the theme, but oh did I understand after just a few minutes... It's fun, well made and just very nice. The only things I can say is maybe fix a lil bit of the bouncing of objects when you're giving them to the customers, since sometimes that can mess you up a lot, and also add a shop after the day where you can spend the money you earned in upgrades or something. Very good job!

karseth 2018-08-17 18:49

This is such a lovelely game! I really enjoyed it! The aesthetic and everything! Replayed it several times ^^

chrissx2 2018-08-17 20:17

@hugo-kieffer, @wetbox, @jmswrnr, @panurge, @smurf, @robo-chiz, @chronicbite, @benjamin-l, @jay-elbourne, @rainysolar, @karseth

Big Thanks from our team to You guys and everyone else for the kind world! We're really glad that You enjoyed playing our game :)

@laura-angel Thank You! Yes the wonky physics at the counter can be quite annoying. We'll fix it if we continue working on this game :). We could probably add some ways to upgrade the shop as well :).

@yamiog Hey, we're glad that You liked it and we're sad that it was laggy :(. Did You try the standalone version?

@bracula Thanks! Those are all valid points/suggestions. You can kinda save some time in early waves by delaying the last order of the day, then spawn some object and organize them - that doesn't feel like a poper way of doing it tho.

@panurge Yes, sadly there are issues with balancing :(. There is a way to reach the final wave (day 5), but it requires a bit of planning and a big does of luck >. <

reax 2018-08-18 05:57

Really cool game! I like that you're able to stack the items on top of each other and inside the shelves. Nice attention to detail. I think this game could have the potential to become a real game.

crazyd 2018-08-19 04:46

Awesome - super polished and great atmosphere..."blah, blah, blah!" ;) Beautifully done. The music was perfect!

alex-brull 2018-08-19 09:48

Very fun game ! I like the "stacking" system :) I couldn't pass the 4th day, it's hard ! You can try our game too if you have time !

mochakingup 2018-08-19 13:22

This is a beautifully made game! It can be easily expanded into a full game. I can see myself playing this constantly. Well done!

auxc 2018-08-19 14:50

Hi, as the guy responsible for balancing the game, I'd like to say sorry for the stupid difficulty spike around day 4, that one is on me. :sweat_smile: Will definitely fix this in the post-jam version(yes, there will be one).

Thank you @reax, @crazyd, @alex-brull, @mochakingup and everyone else for playing and leaving so much feedback - we really appreciate every comment we get here. Now it's time for me to play your games all day!

jern 2018-08-19 16:05

PROS

- really cute graphics - super polished - cool take on theme - goal straightforward and easy to pick up on

CONS

- Not much replayability, gets repetitive

cute game, enjoyed

drauthius 2018-08-19 17:54

Great entry!

webthingee 2018-08-21 00:09

Day Two is a whole new ballgame... lol! Really nice work, really nice models. Really impressive.

wahooney 2018-08-21 12:47

I really enjoyed this, it gives me serious overcooked vibes, which is never a bad thing. It would be cool if the customers took the items off the desk as you give it to them.

Love the visual style

bitowl 2018-08-21 15:43

What a great game! I really hope you continue working on it and create more content. The whole design is so polished and the controls feel very good (except of course if there are lots of items lying around ^^). I wish you had more time between the days to clean up your store at least a little bit.

gurarara 2018-08-21 23:58

This game is pretty cool. I really like the aesthetics and the core mechanic. It fits the theme very well.

bbaf 2018-08-22 13:17

Very entertaining game. Art, music, mechanics, and idea are perfectly fit together Great job! I will definitely play a post-jam version if you plan so. 🎮

konsumopfer77 2018-08-22 14:40

I want to talk to the Manager!

idinakloppstock 2018-08-23 06:52

I really want to know whats in the blue box :D

incinious 2018-08-23 11:32

This game is really brilliant! What everyone is saying is true. Nice entry!

doctormozart 2018-08-24 16:49

We made nearly identical games in concept, only yours is executed 1000% better! Loved this. The art is great. It feels great to play. 10/10.

jamison 2018-08-27 05:36

I liked it overall. Simple graphics work well, and I was definitely running out of space. Are the levels and spawns of items random, though? I quit on day four or five after pulling the lever maybe three times in a row without getting any blue boxes, and the guys wanted four blue boxes.

yulia 2018-08-27 15:02

I like it! nice core loop and outer loop! :cool:

dovakla 2018-08-28 22:32

This is great! It's simple but it fits the theme perfectly. I wish the RNG on item drops was a little nicer, and, like people have said, it sometimes felt impossible to put all the items on the counter in later levels. I made it to day 4.

Amazing job!

ddrkirbyisq 2018-09-03 21:33

Made it to round 4. Felt pretty reliant on RNG at the later parts of the game, and if you don't get the right items it makes a huge mess with no real way to alleviate it. Fun concept tough!

ursagames 2018-09-04 07:34

Gorgeous game! Loved the aesthetic and setting. It was also pretty fun. Thanks for sharing your game with my stream awhile back. Your game was played around 3:30 into this vod: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/298692367

hellsquirrel 2018-09-04 14:08

cool game!

bj-pucci 2018-11-21 09:08

Fun simple game
