The gameplay was a little frustrating, both due to the trial-and-error nature of the weight mechanic and the way the items would snap out of the box when they wouldn't fit. Some sort of way to identify when things are too heavy before packing (lift the box and see if it sags or something like that?) as well as some tweaks to the drag & drop behavior might help things feel a bit better. Still pretty cool, nice work!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"amras0000","author_uid":"1006459","time":"2018-08-26T21:20:11Z","epoch":1535318411,"modified":1535318411,"text":"I like the idea, and I like the photo aesthetic, but the game suffers from poor communication with the player.\n\nThe hitboxes are unpredictable; often I'd place ex. two pots where there is a large gap between them but the game would throw them both out of the box.\n\nThe amount of weight that a box can carry and the weight of the individual objects isn't shown anywhere. Not even an approximation. I know that I can pack 1 item per box, but the game penalizes me for doing that. So I'm left with a game where every box I send has a 50\/50 chance of failing or success. That's about as fun as repeatedly flipping a coin.\n\nThe value of the objects isn't specified either so I can't even prioritize high value items.\n\nThe menu design is great; I like the animations and the photos are really clean. I want to find something to enjoy about the gameplay but there is no information I can use to work out how to play this without prior knowledge of the weights you've assigned. Even a manual would help.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"erikkire","author_uid":"1001708","time":"2018-08-29T19:52:10Z","epoch":1535572330,"modified":1535572330,"text":"Fun idea!

I really liked the art style and animation of your game. It made it feel different than the other entries.
