This was great fun thank you! I beat it. I liked the stacking mechanism and the clues. It all worked great.

What a great submission! Zelda style navigation, brilliant humour, overall quest logic is such a neat. I got "aha-moment" dozen of times. Loved it!
NICE GAME! I LIKED HOW BOXES ARE LOOKING! VERY CUTE! ALSO LIKED THE BEAST!
I like it! I had a lot of fun reading the labels on the boxes!
The game is quite fun, the gameplay loop is great and the animations/camera work is lovely; I have only 2 complatins.
- The walking sound is ear-shattering - Major bug: you don't need to pick the right 3 boxes, you can just keep taking one of the three until the quest is completed; I managed to finish the game in under 5 minutes by doing this
Straightforward and calm game. My favorite part was deciphering where ingredients would be based on the floor map labels. I think there's a fun opportunity here to shuffle up the labels to keep things interesting. For example, if all deliverables had 3+ tags, you could reshuffle where they live for each new delivery. It would make your mind need to do some more lateral thinking about different ways that "honey" could be found (e.g. insect section vs. sticky section vs. yellow section).
Bow to me, I am your new King :tada: I really enjoyed the funny descriptions. Sometimes it was a bit hard to figure out exactly what was needed and doing some trial and error solved it. That was actually a bit of a design flaw, not reading anything and just trying to take things has no repercussion. Maybe accepting it and delivering the wrong thing would have been a way to make players more careful. The stacking, the beasts, the funny one liners. Well done on making a fun game!
Thank you all for your comments!
@zsharpfire thanks for the bug report! anyway, you can take it like a valid way to have fun by going through a backdoor, so congradulations!
@the-neon-shark good idea about reshuffling, but the core thing I wanted to achive is that players remember boxes they visited. "Aha I know what is it and where is it!" after taking a quest, that was my main design goal:) To explore and make unknown places familiar and cozy
@sezdev trying to take things without reading is also a valid way to beat the game, not so fun for sure. But if a player struggles with a riddle or do not want to read anything, why not?
A very funny little game. Well done.
That was really funny at some times, even though (or maybe because?) it's so simple I enjoyed my time here, well done!
I really enjoyed playing this game ! Loved the music and the graphics i pictured :p
I always knew i would end up being a king ! Capture.PNG
You can't loose or take the wrong box, it would have been fun to have the chief smack our head if we brought the wrong order :)
Cool concept. It's great that you managed to fit that much game play in such short period of time. Well done
VERY fun and smart game!!! The presentation wasn't the best but it's a compo, the text of the items on the other hand was on point! Very fun to read, very ingenious puzzle mechanic, loved it!!! 🤩
I really like the take that your customers are complete idiots and will believe whatever the heck you tell them. Really fun concept. I would love to see this with some sort of consequence added to it. While I like that I didn't have to start over for getting things wrong or taking too long I could see this being fun with some sort of way to lose too. One bug I found is that you can pick up the same box multiple times.
Again, great game. I loved this!
caaaaaaaaaaat
These little models are so cute, and the effect created behind us when we are walking, and the sound of the steps! <3 And then... kitty photos!! They are SO cute! And that ending lol, quite anticlimactic even though I read the description. There is a lot of great humour in the game, and the gameplay itself is so chill. I enjoyed it a lot, and it was fun reading the descriptions and finding the correct packages ^^ I like that there was no punishment if I mess up, it just show that the package is incorrect :) At least it seems there is no punishment, I didn't mess up that often after all.
