Hey Ludum dares Our first game KRAKOOGLE is now up. We dont think that we sleep enough or breath enough but hey it was awsome. This game is about a file kraken that needs more files to get points.
The Controlls are W-E-R-T
Destroy the cubes when they are in the red "Thing " at the end of assembly line. Then just press the Keys for the right assembly line RUN IT ON FANTASTIC
Perhaps you have a different keyboard layout than me, but the controls made it really difficult to play! You would've been fine just using arrow keys instead
Some more effects would have helped make the game more manageable. For example a color change or glow when a box is in a trigger area. Currently it can be hard to be sure a box is in the trigger area. Additionally this would help with noticing boxes in your peripheral vision.
Nice graphic, some suggestions: - make sure boxes have some space between them, makes them more visible - make a sound/grafics effect when a box is hit - map the controls somewhat similar to the lanes geometrically, e.g. wasd, so the player can relate that easier - animate the conveyor belt, e.g. by animating the uv coordinates - make the thing I am supposed to do more fund than the thing I am not supposed to do (I watched the boxes pile up for quite a while) - maybe use a cooldown instead of punishment for useless button hits, so you can't spam keys, but it does not feel that harsh - maybe increase the hit area a little, I should be able to hit it right until it starts falling over

Well done! :D
But overall a nice looking game.
I think it is fun but very hard. I would have chosen a different keyboard layout.
