Simple controls, difficult to master! I love me some port cranes and shipping containers. Nice job!
Thanks man, I appreciate it :) Yeah I think your game Ridiculous Shipping is lodged in my subconscious ^_^
I love the pendulum physics, especially the way you separated into the three different axes. The music, the visuals and the use of the theme were fantastic. I kept wanting to come back for more.
Cheers :) Yeah the control separation had to happen because real cranes all use joysticks for operating (with trigger buttons to do actions) - and that seemed like it'd be tricky to get a pigeon to control ^_^. Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed it :D
This is such an amazing entry. The idea you're a pigeon stealing seed while the crane operator is on lunch is such a fantastic take on the theme. Really good work on the physics too. A highly enjoyable game I will definitely be coming back to later. Seriously excellent work
Ah thanks :) Very glad you enjoyed it, thanks for playing, and thanks for the nice words ;)
That was a giggle. All worked perfectly. The pigeon is such a great character and had us laughing, Figured the controls out pretty quick and was a fun challenge to get the grain. Can't fault this at all, great job for a solo dev, a lot of work getting the physics to behave I bet :) Great job Kilted :)
Thanks man :) Yeah the pendulum physics were tricky for sure, not using any of unity's physics for that (only using unity physics for the pallets after they're dropped). I'm glad you had fun with it and I appreciate the kind words, thanks man ;)
Brilliant. Made me laugh out loud when the pigeon comes on. Game looks great and is great fun to play. Nailed the theme, sounds great, it is my highest rated game of the jam so far.
Thank you sir :) I appreciate the kind words, seriously - glad you enjoyed it!
this is beak gaming, no notes
+1 for elegant punnage. Thank you kindly ;) <3
I really enjoyed this game! I don't know if you have plans for this after the jam, but I can see friend slop written all over this on Steam! I would love to be in there with two friends trying to steal seed from another group of players. Great job; no helpful notes, sorry! You did awesome.
Haha thanks :D No immediate plans but I did have an idea for multiplayer where you can each run about and try to control different parts of the crane. Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it ;)
Thanks man, was fun watching you play it on Twitch. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the kind words, I sincerely appreciate it ;) <3
I guess I am a certified crane operator now. Really cool enrty tho! Very well done!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed, thank you for the kind words ;)
Awsome Entry! Was only able to play a few minutes but will have to play more later! Loved the dancing bird, add so much character to the game. The controls are fairly simple and not too difficult to figure out. Love it!
Cheers :D Yeah the pigeon just seemed to work well for the idea. Hope you enjoy the later playthrough :)
Loved this, that little dude had a lot character, the controls were pretty intuitive once I understood the relationship of the buttons to the actual movements and the movements of the crane was smooth and satisfying. I know there's a kind of progression through the reducing number of items to grab but I do wish there was a more direct x/y tracker as well.
Thanks man :) Yeah I forgot the whole "you've scored X out of Y" stuff. It does show how much you've scored at the end but coulda been better with that as you go. Thanks for the kind words :)
This is so great! I did not think that controlling crane is so fun! The idea is really great, I enjoyed this game much. Also, figured out controls without tutorial easily, so that's great! And pidgeon is cute :)
Excellent :D Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it - glad you enjoyed! Yeah I really enjoy the little pigeon anims, was fun to play with :)
Super original idea! I feel like I can operate a crane if a pigeon can do it XD It did take me a bit to get the hang of it, but it was pretty fun and unique. The tutorial made me laugh too :P I don't remember how many I managed to deliver but I do not think I was good at this game LMAO
Haha thanks man :D Glad you enjoyed it, I appreciate the kind words, thanks for playing ;)
Once my brain lined up with the controls being shown in a different order than how they were laid out in the cab and the red one's buttons seemed different from how the line was on screen, I turned pro and got 2 more delivered quickly at the end, 4 or 5 total. Silky game feel; I'm not sure if the amount gotten was shown, and good mix of difficulty on bag placements. Nicely done overall!
Thanks :) Yeah the score isn't shown until the final game-over screen after the 4th position - I should really show that as you go. And yeah the arrows for the buttons are a bit confusing sorry.. that was one of those things where I had positioned them that way at the start of the dev and they just kinda stuck.. I had dev-blinkers on I think. I appreciate the feedback!
What an awsome game, I had so much fun being a bird operating a crane which felt oddly realistic :D, the music was dope as hell and the game looked great birght and clean. If ever continued id love to see lots of different zones and maybe some fun moving hazzards or something and some cool bird costumes :D haha but all in all great game!
Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words and thoughts :) Yeah I had grand ideas for style-shots (thread the needle, making the barge that has the target move around etc), but maybe for another time :D Thanks for playing!
