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 watched this played, rather than played it myself, but it looked nice and chill! Nice music (especially the little end reward which got a 5/5 for humour and audio from me!) Great work!

Felt like there is way to little time given to place objects, but I guess its just matter of balance or adding some kind of interaction with already placed objects. Overall, good game

I really enjoyed this game, innovative and simple!
I really like it, great work!
(Though I would recommend adding a restart button in the future, I didn't discover any)

You can "cheat" by placing all objects on top of each other. But very uniqe idea, love it!

Why isn't A Capella the default music?? :laughing:

It was fun, the concept is nice! You should maybe add more different shapes to the levels (such as the stairs in the last level) so that we can try other strategies than simply setting the furnitures against walls

I enjoyed the time I had with this game. My favorite aspects of it are definitely the graphics and the physics based gameplay. The presentation was very well done.

Interesting concept.
A capella soundtrack is the best.

Very fun. Frustrating, but in a good way! Aesthetics are great, and an original concept.

I like this idea a lot, and the flat coloring works well for the items

Loved the accidental physics, loved the extra soundtrack, loved the models, loved the idea, I loved the implementation of unstableness into the game, I just loved everything, good job you 3!

Fun twist on the "drop stuff and balance it" genre. Also loved the little easter egg at the end!

Love your game! It is very funny to think about the poor guy who needs to throw all kinds of furniture into the room as fast as possible before the important customer comes in :laughing: The theme is very much present in this one. Great job!
One suggestion I could have: make a loose condition when the requirements are not met. Now you have to conclude yourself that the room was not decorated as intended :innocent:

A really cool idea with a cooler way of implementation. It is fun trying to jam stuff to the walls in the hope of keeping them stable. Rotating the view is also a nice addition. Congrats to the team!

At first the gameplay seemed completely based on luck but it turns out that this concept actually does work quite well with a bit of practice. I really like the minimalistic graphics and chill music (especially the NG+ tunes :D) great work!

I think he likes it!


Had a blast with this one, such a great idea, and the cherry on top was the acapella mode. A stroke of genius. This is honestly amazing! Well done.

I loved this! It was really cute and fun to play \o/ I loved trying to balance the furniture although, IM SLOW AND MAKE MANY DESIGN CHOICES (i.e I need more time xD) Everything was pretty polished and worked well :3

I think my favourite part was the acappella theme on the second playthrough, pure gold! I love the furniture items and it's actually pretty fun to try to make them stand up once you get the hang of things!

Overall well done <3 Thanks for submitting your game to me to try out!!

Thanks for the comment on our game !! :id:

I loved what your team did, great idea and execution, i loved the art style, the sound design and music, (especially the acapela music), i love the fact you can't lose and still get to see all the level no matter how good (or bad in my case) you are

really cool game and entry, i'm excited to see the post jam version

Super fun! I really liked placing a bunch of random furnature in a pile and getting credit, but I also really enjoyed trying to play to what the client was looking for. Great work, and lovely simple visuals!

I'm gonna be honest, I feel like CHIKEA's quality control is slacking on the job. :laughing:

I really like the concept and the graphics, music, descriptions, and "eh" expression at my poor attempts at interior decorating all set a great mood. A good challenge!
