Really liked the mood/ambience. Would have been cool to have some feedback when you remove a box instead of it just dissapearing. Great looking game and loved the lighting.

This was a peaceful and relaxing game experience :) As it has been told more feedbacks would have been cool, also my camera got sometimes stuck when sticking to the big boxes, and it was sometimes hard seeing what I was doing (but I'll admit that must be what is happening in real life when carrying such big boxes haha).

Despite of this very little issues I like it !

Fue una experiencia relajante y agradable. la iluminación fue optima y la música muy relajante. Hubiese sido mejor mostrar otra manera de desaparecer la caja...

It was a quiet and enjoyable experience. The lighting was great and the music was very relaxing. It would have been better to show another way to make the box disappear....

I really wanted to enjoy the game, the mood was nice and the music really relaxing, but the framerate and the controls are terrible (sorry >

pretty game! I like how the instructions are part of the game instead of just a wall of text on a main menu or panel. I agree with @tednesday that audio feedback would be nice when disposing of the boxes. Also, when dragging the big boxes, they occlude your view. Perhaps make them semitransparent when dragging?

I really loved these graphics. The game is quite good, and very polished. My only complaint is when we carry these big boxes and can't see anything. Good job!

The graphics and mood are very good and look very polished, sadly the frame rate is kinda bad and controls feel off. Furthermore the text which is written in the world is oddly parented to the objects resulting in it being stuck in walls sometimes.

I really enjoyed the relaxing mood and music. I could see myself playing a more expanded version of a game like this, perhaps with different puzzles and more abilities. Really solid entry - enjoyed it a lot!

The game looked and sounded really good, but I couldn't figure out the controls. Maybe you could have put the controls in the game or in this page.

Very nice and clean graphics. Love the part with boxes flying because of no gravity.

I felt like a jonitor. Nice

I really liked the atmosphere and the immersion of this game, even if I found it difficult to understand the mechanics of the game. Some feedbacks would have been great! Despite this the concept is very interesting! Great job!

Good luck🍀

Nice concept!

It didnt really fit the theme, and I think I got stuck in the end of it. Super good job on the mood and music. A sound effect when the big boxes despawn would be good, I didnt understand where they were going at first.

Peaceful game, intuitive controls. Some feedback for destroying the boxes and placing down the large ones would be nice. The points counter at the top right was a bit invisible at first.

Calm and relaxing game. The ending is kinda disappointing, but eh.. it's gamejam :)

The art style is simple but fits the game and is kinda cool ! The music is really peaceful, I love it.

Cool graphics.Management settings are required. But the idea is very like it

Really good graphics and overall atmosphere. Gameplay was fun too but it felt kinda like a demo or a tutorial in the way that you almost always have messages that tells you what to do. Would have prefered more levels, but I'm guessing you probably ran out of time to add more and that's ok. But like I said I love the atmosphere and graphics. The attention to detail with for example the planet you can see through the hole in the wall really makes everything feel really polished and good too. Good job! :D

Loved the mood of your game ! The music is very nice :)
The graphics are really beautiful too and the station is cool !
I loved the hole in the wall were we can see the earth..

But I think you should do a build for desktop because controls were really unresponsive on web and definitely breaking the experience.. Also you could add more sounds when a door opens, when you walk, take a box, drag a box, etc.

I felt like the shop menu wasn't really nice with the theme of your game. Maybe it should have been better to place a physical objects that you need to find in the station rather by buying things with a number of virtual points.

There is also a bug in the last part of the ship where if you don't have the light module, you can make points infinitely by clicking on the box (because it doesn't destroy).

Anyway, good job. I'd like to see more games with mood like that :)

As everyone said, nice calm and relaxing experience. As a negative point I'd say the overall is quite clunky.

I love this. I've played nearly 100 games but so far this one is my favourite! I saw you post the screenshot and thought "Viscera cleanup detail? I love that game" and just had to come here to check it out. It did not disappoint. Beautiful atmosphere, great tutorialisation, smooth gameplay. I have only one real complaint and that is how the camera gets obscured when moving the larger boxes. Wish the whole thing was bigger with more content, but I appreciate you only had a weekend. Excellent, excellent work.

The game is good but controls are a little itchy, you could show the cursor by simply clicking on the screen. also It doesn't follow the theme but the visuals and music is great.

Wow - what a lovely little game - I love the minimalist graphics and the lonely peaceful melancholy mood you've created here 😌 I got goosebumps when I saw the Earth out of the window because it was so easy to miss and you can only glimpse it a little bit. The whole experience reminded so much of this film:

In the last LD jam I made a game about this subject as well, but mine is a little more frantic 😅

The game is a beautiful experience. Especially when you look out the window. The background music is very peaceful and adds to the mood.

I noticed a bug at the end where you can get points from the boxes that require a light mod. You can endlessly gain points but it doesn't matter since that's basically the end.

I felt the end was very abrupt, there was no sense of completion. I'm guessing time ran out before more could be added which is a shame.

The controls and feedback (especially sound) could use some improvements.

But overall it's quite a nice short experience. That Earth on the window though..
