The cute graphics and particle effects were the highlights for me! Watching the dust scatter as you clean up the old gadgets is really satisfying, and giving them little faces adds so much charm. A lovely take on "Old Tech".

Thanks for pointing me toward your game, and for the kind words about mine!

The game is really satisfying to play! I’d love to be able to control the object’s position on the screen myself, so I could finish cleaning one side before moving on to the next. Really cool take on the theme!

And thanks for rating my game!

P.S. Don't forget to include source code :)

Nice graphics! Core mechanics are simple yet satisfying. I think it would be even better if player could pause autorotation. Good job!

Real cute devices! I think it you were able to spin them by yourself it would be better. Nice Job!

Really cool entry! I loved the concept and the overall mood you’ve created here. The controls felt smooth and the gameplay was super engaging for a jam project. Solid work! Left full ratings.
If you have a few minutes, we’d love for you to check out and rate our game about a cat assembling an atom bomb: Meow Bomb! 🐱💣 Cheers!

@steven-garberg Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm absolutely thrilled that you liked the particle effects and the facial expressions of the devices. Nailing that satisfying ASMR feeling of scattering dust was a big goal for me during the Compo. It was a real honor to play your beautiful game as well! Good luck with the voting stage! 🎈✨

@sanechekz Thank you so much for the awesome feedback! I'm really glad you found the cleaning satisfying.
You made an excellent point about controlling the object's position and rotation manually. A lot of players noticed this too, so being able to pause the spinning or rotate the devices yourself will definitely be Feature #1 in the post-jam update!
P.S. Thanks for the reminder — I've just uploaded the source code link to GitHub! Good luck with your game, balancing those medieval resources was a blast! 🏰☎️✨

@alexey-kuzovkov Thank you so much for the feedback and nice words about the graphics! I'm really glad you found the core mechanics satisfying.
You and a few other players made an excellent point about the auto-rotation. I totally agree that adding a button to pause the spinning or giving the player manual control over the object's angle would make the cleaning way more precise and enjoyable. This will definitely be Feature #1 for the post-jam update on Itch.io!
Thanks again for playing, and good job with your Windows 98 boss fight — it's an absolute masterpiece! 🖥️💥✨

@pazio-di-dante Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled you liked the device designs.
You made an excellent point about manual rotation. Since a few other players highlighted this as well, adding a button to pause the spin or letting the player rotate the models themselves is definitely going to be Feature #1 for the post-jam update on Itch.io.
Thanks again for playing, and good luck with your awesome workshop simulator! 🤖🛠️

@nursultan Thank you so much for the kind words and full ratings! I'm thrilled you enjoyed the concept and the overall mood of the cleaning simulator.
Your game "Meow Bomb!" looks absolutely legendary on the screenshots! That voxel 3D room mixed with a 2D hand-drawn paw is such a clever art style. I’ve just dropped by your page to leave high ratings and a feedback too!
Thanks for playing, and good luck with your atomic kitten project! 🐱💣✨

I relly liked the art style and core loop. short but captivating 2 minutes of my life:)
Would be happy if you also checked out my game!

I like the pixel art for all the devices. The dust is a nice detail. The color matching makes for an interesting interaction with the device.

Really nice relaxing game. The objects movement while cleaning was a bit confusing for me.

Would have been nice if we could rotate the object ourselves and maybe add pieces we can't blow? A relaxing entry :)

an asmr cleaning simulator for old 16 bit gadgets is such a specific and lovely idea, and blasting the dust off while their little anime faces get happier is weirdly satisfying. the particle effects do a lot of the work, watching the grime scatter is the best part. which of the five gadgets was the most fun to design? really cozy little game.

The retro aesthetic you pulled off for the gadgets is absolutely perfect. It gives the whole cleaning process a really cozy, vintage vibe, and watching the grime scatter is super satisfying. Great job capturing that unique atmosphere for a jam project!
