It's a simple game but kinda fun. It seemed like some furniture was just never going to want to stand up, while other furniture would land stable most or all of the time. Just left wishing there was a little more interaction.
I enjoyed it! Physics-tetris came up in our game ideas too, but we ended up going with something else. This works! So good job!
@naymsayk There was actually a proposed mechanic that didn't make it into the game, where if you glitched into a normal wall it would charge your entropy. So something as simple as glitching while holding down (so you would glitch towards the floor / not move at all) and there would be some particles and you would be net positive in entropy. It was proposed as a way to travel up walls or even across ceilings (glitch once into the wall and then once ahead indefinitely, if you could keep it timed), not as a way to fill the player's spare time, and so it didn't seem as necessary (the player is already quite mobile as it is.). In hindsight though it would be a fun thing the player could do anywhere that would directly solve their waiting problem. Whoops!
Got as far as Layer 5! Works great on my friend's web emulator: https://rusticnes.reploid.cafe/wasm/?cartridge=https://cpprograms-nes-games-https.s3.amazonaws.com/ld49/master/ld49.latest.nes
The instructions aren't quite clear but I figured it out (at least partly). The customer may request multiple colors. When they do, you must bring them to the alchemy lab thing in the top right one at a time so that they'll combine, and bring that to the customer. Interaction with the customers requires facing the right direction, so you'll need to use both arrow keys (to rotate not just the potion but your facing direction) and wasd (to walk around).
Well I gave this an honest shot but even after some googling I have no idea how to do this word jumble. Definitely didn't escape, but wish I had!
Oh no! The link still doesn't work? Maybe it hasn't been marked public yet?
Wasn't clear about the mechanics at first, so: You're trying to keep all the lights green by flipping the switches and turning the dials. Besides that, it was a lot of fun and on theme, so good job!
