Fun game! I really like production line games and seeing one as a puzzle game was a surprise.
The tutorial is really good and explains everything really well. Unfortunatelly the puzzles are a little bit on the easy side, but it still took me some time to think about some of the solutions.
I encountered a bug where I closed the buy menu and then wasn't able to open it again.

All in all a very well made game!

Neat we have a similar concept with conveyor belts in a smaller area! Good job and Congratulations on the game!

This reminds me of tile factory and I definitely spent a whole year of my middle school years just trying to figure out the most optimal and/or stupid ways to beat that flash game. this game could easily become some future kid's tile factory.

Very fun game! I'm a big Factorio fan so this scratched the same itch. Well done!

Loved the visual and sound design! Some bugginess in calculating items per minute (it would often say 0), or else I was missing something. Wanted to play more though!

Great little factory type game, played to level 9. Enjoyed the different levels of each block type and the money limit.

Excellent puzzle game, really taking advantage of the theme here. I found the difficulty ramp to be a little off, but overall I enjoyed the game. The objectives are a nice idea; would be nice to see bonus objectives or hidden objectives too.

Simple concept but this is very well executed, well done ! Now I gotta boot up infinifactory again :eyes:

really well executed! having multiple machines and multiple menus is no easy feat. unfortunately i seem to be running into some issues in level 3 where the items per minute would always be stuck at 0, similar to @seth-johnson. bummer i can't check out later levels!

I love this game. Excellent aesthetics, nice puzzle game, refined and long. One of the best games of this ludum dare. If I have to find a flaw I would redo the UI.

This game looks so cool, but it is so incredibly laggy... is it possible to provide a downloadable version?

I don't know how you managed to make this in time! It's amazing!

Had a lot of fun playing this! some of the puzzle were genuinely really tough and I had a great time trying to work through them, all the menu-ing felt great and having the button prompts on the top right was a nice touch. great job can't believe you managed to do this with such a time restraint haha!

Very neat mechanic but the controls were a little hard to work on my machine. Scroll wheel was not consistent in rotating the pieces, which made it hard to know what was the game not working correctly and what was me not being very good at playing it. The graphical look and feel of the machine and the music and choice of audio were both great additions as well.

Other than the gameplay difficulties, this was a really well done entry!

I got stuck on level 7 with the 2 objectives being met alternately. Given the price limit, I can't imagine there was another solution.

Really fun game, though it seems like level 7 doesn't work in the post-jam version (it just oscillates between the two production goals being met). I instead played the original version up to level 15 and quite enjoyed it. My main suggestion would be adding the ability to change the quality level of a part by pressing 1, 2, or 3 while it is selected (or when you are hovering over it), just to make the editing process a bit smoother. I would also love a button to skip a level, as in addition to needing to replay the early levels when switching versions, I also had to restart at one point when the keyboard controls stopped working after switching tabs. Let me know if the game gets updated, I'd love to play more!

Great puzzle game. The music sits very well into the rest of the game.
I got stuck at level 9, seeing no way around it.

Great work!

I just tested it - level 15 is actually possible to beat in the jam version by just building a catapult and completely ignoring the factory output for wood, but I wasn't able to make it through level 7 in the post-jam version. So anyone intending to play should play the jam version.

I love games about conveyor belts, and this one appealed to me as well. The graphics are good and pleasant. The controls are generally easy to understand and get used to after a couple of levels. However, at one point, the keys stopped working, and I had to restart the game. It seems this happened when I switched to another window and then came back.

Overall, it was interesting, with diverse machines and a fun catapult.

Super fun puzzle game! Huge factorio vibes, esp when you try to fit in a lot in that game!

Great work on the puzzles, changeling enough to be interesting, but not frustrating!

Stuck at Level 12 for a while, and I'd to say really awesome game.

Pretty addictive, ended up playing way longer than I intended. Some of the later puzzles are pretty tricky. I like it a lot, well done!

NOOOO im so sorry I really wanted to play it but the scroll wheel wasn't rotating on the the wegl page on itch

@rookrules thanks for reporting that. We have a few people who reported not being able to rotate the pieces properly and there's also a problem of losing the keyboard controls after alt-tabbing. Hopefully we can resolve all this before the next jam.

For some reason I seem to only be able to rotate machines by 180 degrees, so on the first level I can't change a vertical conveyer belt to a horizontal conveyer belt. I tried buying a new conveyer but it is vertical too. I'm guessing that my scroll input is somehow being detected twice.
