I love the minimalistic style man. It's definitely challenging to balance that fridge. I am not entirely sure if it is just my box behaving weird but I experienced quite a few hic-cups while playing, especially when jumping. It felt like Unity was struggling with something, but I am not entirely sure. Nice entry :wink:
Really fun gameplay with juicy audio and movement. Love it :heart:

I love this game! Apart from the fact that I was close to beat my keyboard when I try to pass the Fall #2 level! It's very polished game. I impressed!
Very cool! It's fantastic how a black&white game made with outlines feels so polished.
Physics balancing games often feels clunky but this is not the case at all! When the fridge fell down it felt like my fault not physics or controls fault. So I managed to make it to the end without being frustrated :) And on top of that - it was fun! Thanks, great entry!

The art style is really lovely, and I love the polish with the animations. Tricky, but in a fun way. Nice work!

Amazing entry! I think that everything was already said, but everything feels just right and the minimalistic approach seems to be more than fitting to the theme and jam overall. Great job, thank you for such experience.
It really rocks and has great flow, I would like to see a speedrun - less than one minute for sure!

An interesting game to pass the time. Passes very quickly, but the potential is felt. Art and audio: simple and tasteful. The overall impression is good. I wish you the best of luck with further development!

The game is fun! Interesting graphics and excellent fit with the theme. It would be nice if there was some more cool music, but overall it's good.

Great entry, the minimal design and snappy physics really work well together :thumbsup:
Got stuck in the final level, this game is great. This is really simple but extremely well polished. On spot with the theme too :smile:

Great entry. Polished and very responsive. Great job.
Really clean and fun game. Amazing how the art fits with the theme and mechanics. Great!

This game is really good!!! You would think it would be like a rage game but its so snappy when you fail a level is so cool!
really loved that game! i love the fact that you just came up with the original and simple idea and just decided to polish it out. cool physics, simple yet stylish graphics
I think this might be my favorite so far! Everything was pulled off so nicely, from the graphics to the audio. And the mechanics were really fun and original! Amazing job!

Excellent use of the theme to create a fun little physics-based puzzle game. The minimalist graphics are great for the style and the difficulty ramps up nicely. well done
Nicely polished experience! The simple but consistent graphics does a lot for the style, and nicely satisfying puzzles.
This was quite fun! I really emjoyed trying to get the fridge to the end of each level. The lose sound got a bit annoying but thats not on you, thats on me for dying every 2 seconds on the final level lol.
This was an amazing game and great use of the time allocated and of the theme as well!
So much fun, I don't know when I'm going to learn to stop making my jam games more complicated than they need to be but this could be a master class in that
really fun and addictive! great concept and I love the little touches like the eyes always looking at the fridge.

Pretty polished, and the game is very fun!

The game design is sooo good. The game is really hard but also really good. The final level was a battle, but I stuck it out till the end. Great stuff. The little jump noise is perfect, I love it.
Wow, really great game, nice visuals, innovative idea, nice level design. Very polished game and I love the style!
This is amazing. So many things to like here--clean visuals, great sound, the fail-fast design, the silly but polished controls. The physics felt very fair--the fridge never moved in an unexpected way, it was just because I hadn't learned to control it properly.
I think the only thing I'd change is I'd consider having the fridge start on the platform at the start of the level (rather than in the air). I lost many times immediately because I moved too quickly and the fridge just flew off. Keeping with fail-fast I think it'd be better to avoid having this happen so players can start a level the moment after it starts.

Really solid game, everything felt fleshed out, jumping felt nice, puzzles were challenging, art simple but interesting, just really solid overall.

Honestly, really addicting. I played tons of flash games back in the day, and I would have been stuck playing this game no lie. The art is really nice and minimalistic and sharp. The gameplay is really fun and physics are A1. Audio side was lacking though.
What a fun and polished game! I love the cute little characters and the doodle artstyle. Unfortunately I met my match at the level PITS.
EDIT: Came back to it and gave it another go and got to the end this time! :smile:
Woow! Absolutely amazing experience. This game is a treat, my favorite so far. Clean, polished and, most importantly, fun! Congratulations!
Great entry! I loved the fast gameplay and fast reset. Also awesome style and design! I'd love to see further iteration on the idea; more levels, maybe some dynamic environmental mechanics. Well done!
Simple and fun - but that last level was brutal! It took me 30 tries or so. I like the design of the little wheel dudes.

probably the best game in the entire jam, super fun and innovative!

Ah, so this is how my delivery services handles half of my parcels... No but really, for such a simply concept the execution was amazing. I think level 3 was a wake-up call for me, and I've restarted it more than a dozen times until I found the best way to handle simple steps and slopes. I remember myself being pretty proud of it... until I progressed just a bit further T_T Cute. Brutal, but cute.
Very good, couldn't get past the final level, but every other one was very enjoyable. I can imagine the rage that would be involved if someone played this co-op.

Amazing! This has to be one of the top entries for sure.

Top of my list so far. Nailed taking a single mechanic and fleshing it out.

Really enjoyed the visual design, the game has a lot of style and nice little touches, like the characters watching my fridge crash to the ground over and over and over again. I am very bad at the game, unfortunately.
Wow, simple mechanics does the thing! Also enjoyed clean design a lot. And, most important, after moving apartments each year, CAN RELATE :)
This one is a banger. Absolutely great. The game plays great and this is so much fun to figure the physics to pass levels.
Very simple levels are hard until you get the hang of it, and then it's hard again at the next level. That's great difficulty progression, which isn't simple to create in games that depend on physics instead of rules, so great job!
I think this is my favourite game so far. It's so much fun, is very polished and feels great. The aesthetic is just incredible - I particularly love how the character's eyes are always looking at the fridge.
A great little puzzler. Loved the minimalist graphics and sound, the simple controls and the gameplay. Brilliant work!
Playing the game was fun. After some levels I mastered the controls so new levels seemed quite easy. Good direction of further development could be adding new types of obstacles and new characters abilities

Pleasant physics with sweet well-designed art-style. The mechanics are pretty unique and enjoyable. Great work.

Holy hell, the game is soo slick! The art, mechanics, those little one eyed guys and overall smoothness - really amazing work!

Very nice game! Great minimalistic style, all animations are smooth and neat, as well as sounds effects. Level progression is good as well. Controlling with WASD would be much better for me though, so duplicating control keys to them would be a nice addition: for example WASD + Mouse Buttons would be nice control scheme.
In general one of the best Compo submisions so far. Good job!

@danmerey Thanks for suggesting different control schemes. I thought about that, just didn’t have enough time to implement the UI.
danmerey
2023-05-04 21:17
@split82 understandable :) I would just make build-it duplicates in such cases like "WASD+JK" and "Arrows+ZX". Also I always tried to press Q+E instead of Q+W, so maybe making E do the same as W would be a good idea as well.
Btw, Beat Saber is my fav game on VR :)

This might be my favorite submission yet! Very speed-runner energy game, but really satisfying with good "juice" (love the eyes tracking the fridge through its movement)! Great work; I honestly wish there was more content to play.
This has honestly been my favourite game I have played this entire jam, I love it. Instantly I am taken back to mucking about in class on old flash sites.
The idea was so simple but executed really well, the physics had just enough give and difficulty that I had a lot of fun with them. The puzzles as well had a really nice progression to them, my only complaint would be that it was shorter than I would have liked! If I had more levels like that last one, with that difficulty, perfect.
The graphics were also really well done. Again so simple, but it read super clearly. I love the little details of polish too. The animations, the squish, the eyes following the box. Only thing that was missing was a soundtrack to annoy the hell out of me as I struggled.
Overall I am absolutely in love with this, it's fantastic. I played it on call with a friend and honestly we were cheering from fun, great work.

Really polished game. Liked the art style of the game. Overall had fun playing it.
As usual you made a solid entry. I know your games - and you are a very good indie dev. Your entry is really well done with clever gameplay - a way to fit with the theme. The main mechanics work well as expected. The game is pretty fun - sometimes a little bit too frustrating. What I prefer is the visual - minimalist and polished. I had fun playing. One of my favorite entries for this 53rd LudumDare session. Thank you for your participation. I guess that you are very busy, but you was here with us. I wish you the best ++
Nice and juicy ! And it has so much potential for future development. Very good entry !

Felt like I had a good grasp on how to overcome the two types of challenges- stairs and holes- near the end. Simple concept, but executed very well. :)

Very well made game and slick animations! :stars: Fell of the screen once, but were able to go back to menu and not lose my progress.
Here is my playthrough:

I absolutely love the art-style and graphics! The music and sounds are very fitting too.
The fact you've made it almost instantly re-playable when you fail is a BIG win here.
nice job! This was so cool to play ! :D

The swift controls feel really good. The pace of the scenes and restarts compels me to try again and again. The stages require a certain strategy to conquer, which really stimulates the brain. When I manage to get it right, I can reach the goal very quickly, so this game seems perfect for intense speedrunning :)
This game is really fun, one of my favorite so far. The graphics are cool and the gameplay very interesting.
This is a perfectly polished game! Great minimalistic touch! Congrats on your result! Well deserved.
Good minimalistic game. I never thought that delivering a fridge is such fun.
