Yes! You're hired as oil driller!

But this job is really hard. :tired_face:
How long can you stay in it? And how much money will you make for your boss? :moneybag:

Try it now! And have fun! :smile:

As it is not mentioned in the game:
You can put stuff down again at the same place
The pipe paket at the mailbox and the barrels can be put in the truck again when not full.

Great, but once you pick something up you can't drop it, that makes the game kinda frustrating. Otherwise great!

Nice graphics! The concept of the game is cool! It fits the theme very well.

Fantastic sound design! Lots of fun, and great use of the theme!

I feel like the pause and play buttons on filling the barrels are backwards. Aside from that, I like the aesthetic. Nice job.

Thanks everyone for the feedback! Awesome that you like it :)
@bhanosthegamedev I've added it to the description. You can put stuff down again at the place where you picked it up.
Pipe pakets at the mailbox and barrels can be put on the truck again, even if they're not full.
Should've added it to the game, but thought it would be something the player should find out by themselves.

Really dug the sound and aesthetic, however it was a little hard to wrap my head around what I needed to do. Maybe it's just me but some in-game text bubbles of what I need to do next could help out. :)

thanks for the experience very fun and nice sound design. Good job on the theme!

Nice little game, the music fits nicely. Since you move and pick/drop with keyboard it would also be nice to have shortcuts to stop/start filling the barrels and exit the "drill" window.

Good job!

I really like the idea. I think smoother controls (shortcuts for things) would make it nicer, but also take away some of the difficulty.

Sweet little game. It was fun to play

Nice gameplay loop, the game is fun ! I think that with a large field of oil wells and you have to make it automate it can be a lot of fun. Good job !

I like the idea, music and visuals. For me the game was a bit too difficult, but I still had fun trying the game.
