Archer Librarian by Neverdusk

made by Neverdusk for LD 42 (JAM)

Welcome to the library.

You've been hired to sort books onto tables and shelves. Line up three books on a shelf to have customers take them. Place them on tables to keep them off the floor.

Your operating area will shrink as more customers come. So - we've decided to help you out by giving you a bow. Good luck, new hire. And happy sorting!

It feels like sometimes the bow doesn't quite reach to where I click, especially when clicking on a desk outside the play area. Otherwise a pretty fun little game :)

Loved the mechanics. The escalating music was a nice touch!

Definitely a unique concept. The controls feel kind of unintuitive to me. Like, I just can't get the hang of the fact that I have to click again to reel in after hooking a book. Either way, great work. I enjoyed it.

I love this concept/idea, and I especially love how well done the animation for shooting the books is. Was having a little bit of trouble getting the books onto the shelves though, went at it from just about every angle but whether they ended up on the shelf or not seemed to be at random. Otherwise, it's a fun little game!

Very fun game, with an innovative mecanisme.
However, on my small screen the game screen is off centered, so I can't see everything.

lovely game, music is good as well as the art. But the game didn't get harder around ~43 customers and the room didn't shrink fast enough so there was no end. At some point, the game froze.
