Factolivery by Sekoia

[raw]
made by Sekoia for Ludum Dare 53 (JAM)

An (almost unplayable) factory game about delivering boxes. Pretty happy with this from a gamedev perspective, it mostly works. This was my first jam in a long time.

CONTROLS:

Movement is arrow keys. On the bottom left is the currently selected build material. Use TAB to cycle it. Right click a box to pick it up, right click again to drop it.

CONSTRUCTIONS:

  • Belt: 5 scrap, moves boxes on it

  • Recycler: 3 scrap, recycles boxes received into scrap. Hope the mail wasn't too important!

  • Splitter: Randomly moves any package delivered to it to an adjacent cell

  • (unplaceable) Collector: collects boxes of the same color and sends them to the Corposphere

  • (unplaceable) Target: boxes fall down from space to... somewhere roughly around here. They fall down really fast so you don't see them falling directly

It's a good idea but the controllers on Arrow + tab + mouse is a drawback :/ The art is pretty nice and audio too.

Very good artwork, but I have to agree, moving with WASD would be better, because most people don't have 3 hands ;-)

@sevla @igli Fair enough about the controls :) I originally wanted to make them rebindable (even had the code in) but forgot to make a UI for it.

I pushed an update to make it WASD just now.

Could use more instructions, either in-game or in the project description.
