About

Finally! You are about to move to the new bigger apartment. But first, you need to pack everything you have in the old one. It's not your first move, you know what it looks like.. boxes everywhere, furniture blocking everyone who wants to walk through the place. But it has to be done.

Instructions

It's easy - all you need to do is to move everything to one room.

Controls

In this game, you can walk forward, backward, or turn to the left or right (like in Asteroids - you don’t just press an arrow to move in that direction; you need to turn and go forward or backward). Maybe it takes some time to get used to it, but I tried both types of controls, and it felt more intuitive to go backwards to pull the item.
- Arrow UP (or W) - go forward
- Arrow DOWN (or S) - go backwars
- Arrow LEFT (or A) - turn left
- Arror RIGHT (or D) - turn right
- SPACE - pick up or drop

Don’t forget: You can also go backwards and turn around if there is room for it, even when you are holding something. So items can be pushed, pulled, or turned around.

Bugs?

Oh, yees, plenty! You’ll probably run into a z-indexing issue; the three-boxes object has that problem. I know where the issue is, but I would need more time to make it right. It’s a compo, after all. Also, in some not-very-frequent cases, an item literally jumps out of it’s bounds, but it’s not very often. Just try to pick it up and drop again if that happens :)
