Yep, that goes in the square hole.

Very cool little factory worker sim. Everything looks and sounds good. It could use just a touch more animation - maybe frames between the 4 cardinal directions. I could easily see this with growing problems and some kind of penalty for missing blocks.

Nice work!

Definitely one of my favorite games in this jam! My highest score is 64! Love the concept and art--game is fun, exciting, easy to pick up, and everything on the screen is legible and recognizable. I can totally imagine playing this on a 3310 over and over. .And it definitely feels like a grind! Well done!

Fun game and charming graphics. Fits the theme too!

Can we take a moment to appreciate how lucky this guy is? When he takes a nap at work, his colleagues stop the conveyor, so he can relax in peace. When I take a nap, colleagues ask me to at least turn off the mic, so they can’t hear me snorting. :D

Jokes apart, I love this game. My best score is 130, the game got a bit too haphazard by the end. I like the progression and how a simple concept of sorting the shapes can lead to so much emotions. :) The only thing I missed is a small audio cue when a missed shape leaves the conveyor, just to be aware of losing extra sanity. Otherwise, the game is great, I had fun playing it!

I like a lot of things in this game. The graphics is nice, the UI clean, it's easy to know what to do and the sound is OK (which is non-trivial achievement, given the limitations) and the theme is very strong in it.

Sadly, the game just isn't fun for me. The  game play is just too simple (I mean, not that I can last too long at higher speeds, but that's not engaging me in an enjoyable way) and I kinda hate a mindless grind in video games. I am convinced you achieved what you wanted: it's just I hate it.

At least, it's a stark reminder why not to get a job at manual assembly line.

Thank you for your constructive criticism, it is ok that you do not like the gameplay.

my brain is melting. this is so cool it is very flowy and intuitive and smooth. I love our little bald crab man character! He has a very cool design even though its very simple he has personality. And while he is going insane i am too. its so fast! very cool game i dont even wanna know how you got your 2012 score or in what shape your sanity is. I love it thank you.

Yaay Thank you for playing :D Now that you’ve said it, I cant unsee crab goober haha! You can thank Sam for that humongous score >_> lol
