Great game! Graphics and audio work perfectly, gameplay is very fun and relaxing. It might be nice to add more info on tools, 'cause I still do not completely understand what they do. Nonetheless, great entry!

Super fun to creat the conveyor belt path, but what makes the game really sing is how satisfying it feels when your path is working exactly how you intended. Good game!
Very, very well-made. Music was a bit overwhelming at first, but catches the vibe perfectly. Not a game for me personally, but I can't help but be impressed. Best game I've played in the jam yet
Great game, I still don't remember which way the folders come out of the portal but other than that it's very enjoyable.
Well done, the rules are fairly simple but everything on screen is very easily understandable and the levels are fun to solve.
As a CI engineer with 20+ years experience on my resume, I love this. I enjoyed the attention to detail, like being able speed up the job.
I was initially confused by 'start', i thought that referred to the game itself, not running the CI job. Maybe 'run' could work better? I also found the different types of logic gate hard to parse visually, due to the small icons.
Great job overall, super fun!
@skitefall thanks for playing! And good suggestion for the portal, I've updated the graphics to make it clearer
@congusbongus ooh, that's waaay better :thumbsup:
I tried to think about the complaints I had with this game, then I realized, I had none!
Its like the perfect representation of software pipeline delivery..
made it through all the levels and had a blast doing it! This has some really well made puzzles. There were a bunch where I was stumped and then had that "AHA" moment. It would have been nice if I could move the camera around. Other then that I just wanted more levels haha. Also the music in this is super nice, I'm definitely going to explore the SFX's to see how you made some of those sounds
Great way of doing delivery! I couldn't quite figure out level 9, but I really enjoyed what I played of it. Awesome puzzle game!
This game is awesome! I actually was thinking about something similar for the jam, but in the end I couldn't really make it fun, so I scrapped that idea. Your implementation is amazing, it's really simple but has so much potential.
Good jam game , love the simplicity of the concept. Well executed , polished finished game. Your music choice is soooo good really complement the gameplay puzzle vibe.
Love these kind of games! Realization is really good, awesome work!
This is a fantastic game. Simple concept but really well executed and nice level design. The music is a great choice. I don't like the font, it works in the mood but is not easy to read.
Very fun. I like being challenged like this. Also, great job designing levels that teach the mechanics of the game.
The art in this game is truly vintage,
as if it takes me back many, many years.
I long to return to a time
without war,
without viruses,
without online trolls.
Thank you, developers,
for giving me a fleeting dream.
Great game! Nothing to complain about really, but I found a little bug: Placing conveyor belts (or gates etc.) on a computer overrides the functionality of the computer irreversibly. As a result, the computer simply forwards the folders instead of processing them.
This was super fun. The puzzles were well done, and paced out well. I got very stuck in level 7, but suddenly it clicked and seemed so trivial ^_^ the last few levels each had a unique trick to them making the puzzles in the game very well done. The music was also well done, and the graphics fit in well with the overall aesthetic. Good job! (Edit: I played on my phone and could not right click to erase tiles :( so I would reset the level of I misplaced something, once - I'm not sure how - I reset the level, and one of my conveyor belts was converted into a logic gate - on level 7 I had 4 belts and 2 gates... I'm not sure what happened, I reset the game to fix it).
Nice game, I really liked the artstyle and the puzzles were well designed!
This is really polished for a game jam! The music fits perfectly and it looks great. The level design is at a nice level, not too hard.
I did have the same issue as @hitchh1k3r, I got quite stuck on level 7, I think I ended up with 3 belts and 3 gates, thought I was doing something wrong, but ended up refreshing and was fine then.
super cool game, the music really fits with the art and i loved how you worked with the theme!! plus i always enjoy seeing games in pico8 <3
@isadora it’s tic-80 :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: which is like pico8 but bigger Thanks for the feedback!
I really like it. Well done on level design each piece is added one by one. The UX is pretty well done as one understand tile quickly thanks to the smooth progression level by level. I love this kind of game!
My first LD was on the same gameplay, we were young and dumb, we had hard time for the programming and Level Design. I hope it was less painful for you!
*I found level 6 do not require logic gate and at level 8 a bug appeared where the folders did not spawn at all. (Maybe it's linked to the fact that I built a tile on the spawner :smirk: *
Wow! Great vibes of old 90's games like The Incredible Machine. Puzzles are solid (last one took me a minute to figure out), audio is simple, but doesn't get old. The animations are also well-suited to the art style. I'd have loved to seen perhaps an outline on the text so it's more readable when it overlaps other things on screen, but that's a minor complaint. Definitely one of the best games I've played so far. Great work!
Good to see another TIC-80 game! This is great fun! The graphics and music are all top-notch, and the difficulty progression of the puzzles feels spot-on. I got stuck on Level 9, I just can't fathom how you're supposed to get the folders into the centre once they've gone through all the build processes. Maybe it'll come to me later. Great job!
@f1krazy thanks for playing! Yes level 9 is especially hard and is the last level. The level creator is a mad genius and even I could not solve it. Post jam we will add lead up levels to teach more tricks before this level. If it helps here are some hints: - the folders need to loop around the monitors, and finally exit the loop when they are done - the gate needs to be in the loop, to divert complete folders out of the loop and to the exit - the exit can only be reached by going through a monitor from the outside
There is also a let’s play video where the streamer works through this level and eventually solves it: https://www.youtube.com/live/JHbwctQOH9I?feature=share
Awesome game! I liked it so much that by the time I realized I had spent more time than I have spent on any other game in the jam, besides being the most polished of those I've tried. It reminds me in part of a Factorio style game with vintage and pixel aesthetics. The only problem I've had is that the sprites of the conveyor belts sometimes confused me as to which direction they were pointing. But as for an overview, it's a perfectly functional, aesthetic pleasing and quite entertaining game.
