Nice game and polish with small animation and feedback! But it's quite repetitive

The links are working fine for me, now.
I didn't think before that a train game can be cute, but it is. The graphics are cool (ok, I must admit I love pixel graphics :D ), the sounds are a bit dull tho, but overall it's a lovely train managemenet(?) game. :)

Fascinating pixel art, but unfortunately I didn't understand how to save my train. Maybe I will try again several times later

Nice concept and well executed. I could definitely see this being a great couch co-op game if you ever expanded upon it.

@gamer-fates THANKS! We're happy that you liked it!
@yinian hahaha, turns out the game got a little harder than we intended...
@samsdevlog much obliged, man! we're thinking of expanding the game (with co-op included!). let's see what the future holds for us.

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE FEEDBACK <3

It has enough depth and things to do to keep you on your toes. A nice focus on frantically running back and forth to keep everything working in one way or another, however I couldn't figure out some of the tasks, even with the small tutorial. Fixing the chair didn't seem to do anything and I failed multiple times until I realised there was a second furnace thing to extinguish further back in the train.
It has a really cool mood, the music and pixel graphics are great for establishing that. Nice promising game concept, just a little bit confusing. Nice work :)

I didn't rate the game, because I couldn't figure out how to keep the game going. Picking up objects was difficult to select the one I wanted and I did not figure out which interaction kept the fire going.

Very nice pixel art. I like how it looks in the movement.

I liked how much trouble and instruments do you make. It's enough to make a `busy` feeling.

Sadly, I can't go further the mouse. This game has only small gaps for doing nothing. So I can't make a mistake even for 1 second. Also I spend a lot of time filling the oven and it's a little bit annoying.

I will be glad to do nothing and see how my train drives through forest and mountains 15 seconds and then run to fix something

Procedure generation for troubles will make the game more interesting, but for the LD version constant scenario is okay.

Beautiful background and use of colours! I also like your attention to detail in making the menu. I didn’t understand how to save my train as I was having trouble picking up objects (some inconsistencies in picking up the items - only the wrench seemed to work for me but not sure if I should have dropped it first?). Not much time to ease into the game due to the pace imo. Nice job overall though!

This was a really fun entry! Very fitting with the theme, and nice touch with having the trains be the buttons for the starting menu. I felt that maybe the timer for feeding coal to the train could go a just a little bit slower to have a better chance at doing the other tasks. Other than that it was great!

The game is cool, but it was hard to pick up and play. The game is crazy fast paced, which is great, but you're thrown in with no understanding of how anything works. It's hard to quickly get to grips with what to do, it'd be nice if the difficulty slowly built up rather than starting you in the deep end. It was hard to figure out the controls, and the tutorial didn't really explain the coal shovelling mechanic. Otherwise though, the game was interesting, and the ending was... surprising. I certainly didn't expect that, I like how the game seems endless from the surface, but actually... Nicely done with the graphics, I was impressed by the different text effects and ui polish. Audio is well done too! Overall the game was really good, congrats! :heart:

That was weird experience. I played HTML5 version. Before the first tunnel it worked okay, but in the tunnel... It suggested endlessly to go and fix some furniture, but wagon with furniture was empty. In addition, I could just get there without a hammer and still succeed. And that repeated over and over, sometimes with glitchy dialogue about first tunnel, sometimes coming out from the tunnel in a brief second. I could do this endlessly. I'm not sure whether I played a broken game, or some creepypasta material. And even as creepypasta it doesn't get further than this first tunnel, that's why I am not sure.

Seems like I played different game from the others in comments

P.S. Windows link leads to html5 page, fix pls, I want to try win version to see whether I was incorrect with my feedback

P.P.S. Lamp is useless.
