Really fun idea, but it gets bogged down with the physics a bit I think - for example, at one point I had a bed land right on top of a table, and it was impossible to sort out that I could see.

Also - for me, at least - once I was a piece of furniture, Q and E were move and A and D were rotate. That worked fine, but was confusing when I was expecting something different.

Yeah, I switched Q/E and A/D for furniture controls because rotation seemed more important when you're playing as furniture. But I wrote the wrong keys in the description! I've fixed the description here and on itch.io. I think the in-game text is fine (it just says "WASD to move"), so I'll leave the in-game text intact.

very into the idea and the phrasing "make them happy". controlling the furniture was a bit dizzying at times but overall pretty solid

Whoa, it was very difficult to control the fornitures. definately, my chairs were not happy at all...xD

Weird concept (which is good). I think the furniture needs smiley faces or frowney faces to tell how it's feeling.

Love the idea of taking control of the chairs but was a bit hard to control.

Two tables to one chair: "nice"

Overall great execution, wonderful idea!

Nice idea. Control a little bit difficult.

Nice work. Making things not be near things they dislike is a neat mechanic. Weird that it was furniture but it worked in a feng shui sorta way. Wish the chairs were more controllable, and I would have liked just a bit more reinforcement about a chair being "happy" with more than just the absence of a red line.

This was an interesting concept but the controls were really hard to use and took away some of the fun of arranging the room. I think it could be a fun game with some more polish.

Really nice play on the theme. Reminds me of Quantum Conundrum a bit, not gameplay-wise but with the overall style. The tutorial introduces the rules well and in a funny way. I enjoyed Table Jockey a lot.

The thing I didn't like the most was tough controls, but that is unavoidable in this kind of gaems. I missed Y axis controls (like shift and space in Minecraft). Physics liked going wild whenever I tried moving something fallen upside down or lying on something else.

Definitely and innovative game! Who knew arranging a room could be so hard. The controls are a bit zany, but that adds to the challenge of the game. The sound effects were a little annoying, but it was better than silence. The graphics were simple but effective. The whole thing was pretty funny as well. Overall, great job!
