Oh, really nice job on this game, i had some fun with it even after the counter went zero. In the beginning i got REALLY lost in it for one or two minutes until i got, an Main Menu and some kind of page with an tutorial or explanation on it would be great, but even with that, i really liked it. Really great job!
I'm sorry but I did not get anything!
I love the rush from having to stuff. Would of added some controls indications in game but besides that had fun!

Thanks for the kind words! We've updated the description with more of an explanation as to how the game works. :smile:

The music choice really made me feel like I was in a hurry and I got overwhelmed very quickly. I was having some problems with the buttons on the machine not resetting and causing me to have to restart the game. Good game I enjoyed it.
It took me a while to figure out what I was doing wrong because I didn't know how to open the boxes xD
But it was really fun! I ended up throwing all the boxes like a maniac because the conveyor belt was too slow.
This is my best score:

Shame on me.
If I had to say any downside to this game is the alarm sound of the machines, It doesn't put me in tension, it's just a bit annoying. Also, the fact that I have to force close the game to restart it is a bit odd. But despite that I think this is a solid entry!
Congrats!

Well, I understood pretty fast how to play (because I read your explanations here :D ) but I got stuck because the blue button would always stay pressed. That just blocked the game or forced me to make wrong choices to carry on playing.
Other than that, the game looks very nice ! The gameplay is simple but quite effective, and I liked the audio. great job !

When first opening the game, I was a bit confused with how it worked. Came back & read comments so I could finally understand what I was supposed to do. Maybe a tutorial video would help for other reviewers? Great work. I liked the artstyle, but felt rushed because of the music (Probably was the point :sweat_smile: ). Nice entry!

This game can get pretty hectic, if you actually work and not sit around taking breaks. At first, I totally missed the shipping part, but later, I got a grand score of 4. You can add a supervisor with an Amazon clipboard to follow you around. Nice job.

OMG, those were very stressful 7 minutes. Great work! :) Sometimes it was hard for me to put things into boxes, but otherwise the gameplay and controls were smooth. Great concept and execution. Well done!
Graphics are beautiful, controls feel super smooth and the whole game is generally very responsive. I had some trouble finding out what to do at first, but overall you learn the game by itself. Well done!

Since there are so many moving parts to this, it would have been nice to have at least some basic prompts for what to do ingame, but it's totally understandable for a jam that you didn't get to that :) One bug I noticed is I pressed all the buttons on the sorter without it having a box inside (while I was trying to figure out what to do) the buttons just stayed pressed down so that when a box went inside later I couldn't press anything to sort it.

I was a bit confused at the very start of the game tbh. :D Anyway, nice graphics and audio.
Pretty cool idea for a game, didn't initially see that there was more to the room (and a lot more machines) than the corner I started in which was funny
I love what you were able to accomplish as far as the game feel - it gets pretty hectic and stressful, but in a good way, and the audio definitely contributes to that a lot. Having all the instructions on the game page is really helpful but it's hard to read it all and process it. I'm really impressed by what you were able to accomplish for the jam with this - really great work!
I thought this was a pretty fun game although it took me quite a few tries to figure out exactly what was going on and what I was supposed to do. And also I feel as if the red sorter may have been placed a little too far away compared to how close blue and green were. Regardless really fun game. And it looked fantastic as well.
"Impressive game, Very cool concepts. I left wishing that there is more. Had a lot of fun "

Interresting... When you feel like being at work in an Ama*** dispatch platform :-/ Very well made !!!
Nice concept and interesting gameplay. It was hard to understand where to go at the beginning. Great work! ;)
The concept is cool and the graphics are great! :) The incoming parcel sound was a bit annoying but over all it was fun!
