Loved this! The art is so clean, and the little additions like movement/sound effects when stuff is clicked is great quality. I do wish there was some way to pick which laundry to put into the machines - maybe if it came in in waves rather than just three more spawning in once the current three were in the machines; only because sometimes I'd have 10 seconds left and a bunch of fish and trousers would spawn and I'd know I'd lost at that point ^^;; Really though, this was a lot of fun and super underrated!

Thank you !! I've actually run into the same problem while testing it out on my own, but haven't thought of fixing it yet. Sending the clothes out in waves sounds interesting... I'll try it out ! Thanks for the feedback :)

This is addictive! This had a really satisfying engine-building system. There is some luck to it, but it seems like most runs can still be reasonably successful if you adapt to the options you're given. At first the wisps didn't feel worth it, but once I got a good run with a lot of machines I realized I never would have kept up otherwise lol. I like the washing machine spin cycle and the world exploding consequence for the theme. The music set a good vibe for the game and the dings from the washers were a good fit. I really enjoyed this.

If I had to nitpick, a couple rounds I accidentally bought washing machines and forgot to place them before going on to the next round and then they were just gone. That's definitely user error, but could be worth considering a check for that and popping up some kind of "are you sure?" message as a protect the player from themself kind of thing.

Wow thank you !! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Also thank you for the nitpicking, I never thought about making an "are you sure?" message so I'll be sure to add something in to catch that later. I'm currently developing this game further, so your feedback helps a ton :)

Nice concept! Pretty unforgiving though. Tons of nice little touches with the sound and animation. Great job!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

I like it! UI has good feels to it. Game loop is fun! Wisps are cute! Though, I wish they would they return the laundry for me. I want to keep playing until I manage to fill the screen with laundry machines!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!! I thought about having the wisps unload the washers but I wasn't able to implement that feature before the deadline since I decided to prioritize other features instead (different washers, UI, sfx). I'm really happy that you want to keep playing :)

One of the cutests games I've seen for this jam!
The art is super nice, the UI design feels super satisfying and the gameplay loop is rather addicting for how simple it is

Best game I played this jam so far, it has a good potential to become a full game. Well done!
