Score 12 >_<

Nice little game! It would be better if the junk has a random flying direction :D

Cute game, I think it has lots of potential, but at this state there's no scaling difficulty so I felt like I had "beat the game" pretty quickly. Maybe increasing the rate at which the bags are thrown and having more random trajectories could do.

Liked the atmospheric sounds, but as some others mentioned, really needs some kind of randomness or other mechanics to spice it up. Could be something simple such as the doors speeding up over time and trash on floor needing to be manually collected or else you lose health

Really fun concept! It was satisfying running side to side to collect the garbage :)

Great starting concept, could use another mechanic or some scaling/randomness to spice things up.

Initially this felt fun and engaging and the idea has potential. 

However I quite quickly realized the gameplay is a little flawed. The Doors shoot out the trash in the exact same spot, no randomization at all. There is also no downside if you miss the trash, you don't lose health or score. 

This means you can basically afk in the right spot and just keep racking up points forever.


I wish it introduced some new challenge as the game goes on. Even before figuring out the afk strategy after like 10 pieces of trash it felt like I was mostly just sitting around. Easy way would be to have them shoot out a little faster over time.


The art for the background, spaceship, and trashcan was cool, but the player sprite felt like it was from a different game because of the pixel size.

Overall the game was quite fun before I optimized the fun out of it haha

Simple and cute game! It took some time to figure out where to stand to collect the garbage but once I did the garbage didn't stand a chance! 

Developer

Thank you very much! I cant do more than that yet in a such tight time frame. But i will keep participating in game jams and developing my skills! Such comments give me motivation to keep going. Much appreciated

Very fun game. Love the pixel art and the concept of it.  I got up to level 33 and died, hope you make it on top 3

Developer

I probably wont.  But still thank you very much! The only pixel art i made was the background tho.
