Delay the inevitable washing up! Pile the dishes in the sink until one of them falls and you have to get scrubbing. How many will you stack?

Click and drag the dishes to pile them up. Dishes that fall and break will not count towards your score.

A game where instead of doing chores, I play Jenga with all of my shatter-able silverware stacked on a single pan, where promptly, it is now needed to get more silverware.

Chaotic Fun.

Great interpretation of the theme. Tricky game - I got only five items both times I played. Nice mood, solid graphics. Great design choice to vary the shapes. I was gonna stack plates only, but game wouldn't let me - which is a good thing IMO.

Would have been just as good for the 49th jam (unstable). Really a true to life game though, my sink isn't looking dissimilar. Decent fun and a good challenge.

Simple yet very well executed concept! Actually had some fun with this one, although the colliders felt a bit off from the actual graphics. Great submission!

Really fun, chaotic game. The music and sounds are very fitting as well.

It's both fun and funny, but it's also super short. I found it really funny that you can save a dish from falling by catching it with a dish that you are about to place so that's a nice trick to have available. It, however, seems very very odd that some of these cups and plates don't have flat bottoms. The game has an interesting bug where you place dishes directly below the sink and since they have not fallen to the left nor to the right of the sink, it doesn't kill you until you throw enough dishes down there that a dish falls to the left or to the right while down there where you can't see. That's an interesting trick that can usually just add 8 to your score.

Lolol, doing the dishes really is inevitable, isn't it? Neat interpretation, fun execution, good work!

Hahaha we really had the same idea! I was planning something like this before going with the grid approach. Really nice, my record is 19 items

Fun stackin game! I am quite bad at it - only got to 8. Tactically only picking small things didn't work out that well.

Would have been nice if some of the plates were a bit more stable, or perhaps if I could rotate/stack similar shapes into other shapes.

The art was neat and to the point, and the music chill. The crash of breaking glass was a nice topper. :wink:

Nice entry realy fun to play! Maybe it's would be more interesting if collision of object was more realistic. Like you can stack your cups and bowls.
