Very fun game~ High replayability, too. I only wish that the music had more variety. Got as high as 380 points on Level 3. It fits the theme perfectly!

I loved the game! It reminded me of tetris at first, but it didn't play like that at all. It's a bit glitchy when there are a lot of boxes, but really nice polish overall. All hail the mighty toaster!

Very cool game, with nice graphics and gameplay ! \o/

It is a very nice game! Loved the art style and the music and it is a clever way to play around the theme. Congratulations!

@lexyvil Thank you. I got so used to playing the game while testing it that it feels really easy for me, haha. As for the music, the Andrew (music guy) didn't have much free time and we weren't even sure he will be able to do the bit we have.

@proafkboy When I saw the theme, Tetris was the first thing that came into my mind. Tetris is the perfect example of "Running out of space". This was our first idea and probably the best for this theme. As for the glitches, we noticed the problem with getting stuck between the boxes we just ran out of energy and didn't feel like rewriting chunks of code and possibly causing more problems.

@pierre-avinain Thank you! :smile:

Really nice game! I looks and feels very polished.

It was fun! I didn't get past Level 5 - it got pretty hard when there were lots of boxes and I often got stuck where I couldn't move because of being squished between boxes coming off the conveyor and the boxes in the warehouse. The graphics and sounds were really nice; I especially liked the robot's animation; he felt very lifelike and full of character. One bug I noticed was that when I clicked Guide and then Back, the Guide button lost its text, but that didn't affect the gameplay at all. Great job on a fun game!

@fractalsunrise I guess I made the game to hard, sorry for that one. We know about the conveyor belt and boxes bug but it would have taken a lot of energy to fix since we had to rewrite a lot of the code (= more problems). As for the guide bug, what OS do you have? We didn't have that problem.

Nice game, I like the music a lot! I kept getting stuck between the conveyor belt and my boxes though.

xerozylir 2018-08-14 18:20

Nice game play, art, and music, but the boxes are really hard to move and I got stuck between some boxes at one point because it couldn't let me jump.

A good game idea, the music should be improved. The graphics are good. Try our game too, maybe you'll like it)

dasun 2018-08-15 11:55

Very fun, but maybe the music could have been a little calmer :D

The graphics are a bit lacking especially animation wise but the gameplay is very fun! It's kinda like tetris mixed with a platformer. You could expand it later with a more interesting level design and maybe having an expanded moveset.

Super little fun game to play. Congratulations for the work done

Nice, gameplay is original, and the overall product is quite polished. It wasn't too difficult at the beginning, until all of the boxes started to pile up and I got stuck between two boxes. It's a bit of an emergent lose condition, which is funny.

I had fun combining boxes! Difficulty ramp might have been a little slow, but it sure overwhelmed me in the end! Thanks for sharing the game with my stream. Your game starts at around 3:55 into the vod https://www.twitch.tv/videos/297479036
