made by Leandro Dotta for LD 42 (JAM)

header.jpg

* Space is running out, literally... *
For a large junkyard ship to escape from a space anomaly, you must get rid of all extra weight that's no longer useful, and it is a LOT. Be fast enough to compact and incinerate the wreckage that comes at you and avoid getting buried.

* COMMANDS *

  • Move: WASD or ARROWS
  • Grab: J or Z
  • Push: X, K, or SPACE

Good one!! On the html5 version however there seems to be a texture glitch.
Sometimes the materials are pink, sometimes the texture seems to go away.

Overall I love controlling the little character and pretty muched loved my time with it!

Yay I won! I am not sure if the green machine did compact stuff, but I just melted eeevrythhang on my grasp :yum:

Some constructive feedback:
Some ingame instructions might help understand the goal better, maybe tutorializing the first couple moves?
Also if we're supposed to have to compact stuff, it is wrecking big stuf too, I would double check on that.

Overall nice entry,the character control was smooth, not sure what the pink spread did tho, I just pushed most stuff from the corners along the wall to melt them in a row ^^

Some nice aspects, but I found it a bit confusing and hard to get into. Nice entry though :)

Reminds me of Viscera Clean Up Detail, which is a good thing! I think it could've benefited from some in game instructions to help clarify but it wasn't so obscure that the player couldn't figure it out with a little trial and error.

The art was simple yet worked for what was intended. Like @confituur mentioned above, I had a similar texture glitch in the html5 version, but otherwise looked good.

For audio, I felt like it was lacking some appropriate music but that came as more of an after thought than anything else.

If you develop this concept further, I think different levels and environments would be a cool addition.

All that being said, I really did like this game. Good job!

Good effort! love the character model! As a game, it feels to simplistic. Maybe add more things you need to keep track of like the trash turns into pellets that you have to dispose in another machine, or some trash requires special tools to dispose.

I like the concept and the art is fairly nice, but as others mentioned it's a little confusing at first. Some music would have really helped with the mood I think.

Overall pretty fun, I found it really easy but that's more of a personal note; I don't think the gauge ever filled past half.

Belos gráficos em 3D, e uma boa jogabilidade também, gostei...ficaria mais dinâmico se a câmera se deslocasse pelos lados 2D, tipo um câmera follow

Falow!!!

nice 3D graphics!

Good overall. Game run smoothly. Gameplay is simple and intuitive. A "how to play" menu would be a nice addition, otherwise the game well finished.

Good job!

But overall game is good :)

One thing I couldn't wrap my head around is the camera movement. I had no idea why it moved, when it would move, and what for. This was very distracting.

Thank you for your feedbacks @timbelion, @mike-inprinciple and @zicboy!

@mike-inprinciple the thing with the camera is actually a bug. Sorry about that :(

It's good! It can be a nice local multiplayer game like Overcooked, huh?
