This game is a real gem. I got hooked from the first seconds, and I had so much fun merging and organizing items. The backgrounds, colors, and story are really harmonious. Price of my bag: 305!

This game was amazing! I really enjoyed the puzzle aspect, even though there is a heavy dependence on luck. Even though the story stays the same, the randomness makes it fun to replay to try to beat the score. Great job!

Oh damn I like it. Like this could make for an actual game. It could use rotation items cause it's so annoying when I can't fit the item I want and it's just 1 rotation away. If you had to actually sell some items in order to progress then it would actually encourage you to strategize and go for the higher items. I played for a bit and my best is 351. Cool game man, could use some polish

Thanks!

We thought rotation would mean there would be functionally no difference between any of the 1x2 items other than that they wouldn’t merge together. We also had some other ideas including selling items and continuing, but they had to be cut for time.

Perhaps we’ll pick it up again at some point and add some more stuff? 👀

Its a cool game. The merging system with the degradation was a cool idea with the little story also in it.  no bugs and felt like a finished game.

Cool lil text based adventure and the inventory system really fit the theme. Really liked the level of polish you've added. Good job!

Thanks!

Just in case you didn’t see it in the description, we forgot to add a mention of the merging mechanic in the game itself. Knowing that, you should be able to easily crack 300!
