The idea of the supply chain was interesting!

Hah, don't think I've ever played something like this. I think if it was easier I'd have played more. Have you considered adding more eggs at once? Also perhaps make it more playful than challenging. Either way, nice.

Very fun, loved the mechanic, very original. It's like monkey ball with eggs. Is it actually simulating an egg shape for collision or is the collider a sphere?

@johnnysix yes, It is an egg shape, that way, the movement is more erratic than when just using a ball!

I Like the game! Reminds me of I Am Egg, only this time you are controlling the environment! Also, I saw a bug, i Reached the end of "Basket Delivery" and touched the Finish point, the game showed the winning particles but then i dropped to the ground. When i clicked next level, the level restarted. Overall pretty fun.

I loved this game! It was rock hard but the concept and graphics were really cool. The song was great, but a bit jarring that it restarted the song everytime you restarted a level or moved a level. Great work!

I like the idea. It was fun and had good controls :) The short music loop was a bit annoying after a little while. Good job :)

I love pretty much everything about this game, amazing job! If I had to find one criticism it's that the controls were a bit too sensitive. The best game I've played so far!

@rob-parker Yeah I was going to make it loop seamlessly, but then the time ran out ;)

Wow, amazing graphics and cool gameplay! Loved playing the game. Also nice to put a level selection in the main menu. The only very minor complaint: sometimes its hard to see the depth of the view, so the egg goes to short or long without a 3d reference point. But I managed to clear all the levels, now lets eat some eggs for breakfast :-)

This game is too hard for me xD I don't know if its just me or are the controls extremely sensitive? And the music is a bit annoying after your 30th or 40th try of the first level. But I like your graphics and your dead animation! I saw it way too often :D

Hard game! Looks great, but learning curve doesn't exist -> even first levels are too hard for average player. Id suggest making at least a few easier levels so players can get used to controls before smashing countless egz

The graphics and music is really good. The gameplay idea is interesting and fun. The controls of the platforms could have been better. Overall is this a pretty good jam game. Well done.

Fantastic game, so much fun! I definitely found it quite hard and am sad to say I didn't even get past level 2 after many attempts, but I can see what you're doing here and it's put together quite well. Good job!

Why are there so many games about eggs? AHAHA :D I love it. I like how there are 2 main strats. Carefully edge the egg along, slowly making its way to the next surface OR... Yeet that egg and hope for the best :ok_hand:

Great Work! The graphics are really cute and it was really fun to play. Just a bit hard for me. Maybe one or two noob levels would be nice.

This is a very clever game, and it's fun to play. You can launch your egg off the map though, and it won't ever end the level.

I liked the gameplay! My hands are sweaty, by the way! = ) Took the eggs safety too close to heart!

Kind a hard game. There is no need to restart level for every dead, it will be nice to see previous dead eggs on the floor and the music loop could be longer. NIce graphics.

On my first try an accidental key press sent the egg directly into the basquet, and I thought I was an epic player! Then I proceeded to break a few dozen eggs in the next levels :D . Had a lot of fun.

From one egg to another, bravo! Got very hard towards the end but was very satisfying when I finally got my egg into the pan.

What a challenging yet addictive game. I love the models like the egg and the chicken. I will say that the sensitivity of the movement felt a bit random where sometimes I didn't move it far enough while other times I sent the egg flying on accident. Overall great job!

Simple game, fun physics and great level design. I had a lot of fun, good job.

Pretty fun! I like the face on the egg, and as weird as it sounds, the noise of the egg hitting a surface is really satisfying. I did get stuck once where the egg was jammed between two stages and I couldn't move either stage, and some portions were pretty brutal, but it was a lot of fun! Very well executed game, nice work!

@wheffle hehe, the egg sounds are as real as they get. I recorded them by breaking an actual egg ;)

Seems nice, but the web build doesn't load in chrome on Windows 10. Maybe you can add a standalone build?

@mika-la-grand, hey, I added the standalone builds to the Itch.io page!

Alright, I've played the game. I like that it start with the chicken and ends in the frying pan. The faces are also a great touch. Though, I found the physics (at the start of each level) to be a bit unreliable. I also couldn't beat Basket Delivery, because the last obstacle didn't end close enough to the box. The same goes for Breakfast, because of the frying pan near the top (couldn't get it to roll over the stele of the pan).

Saw your youtube video! Fun game! Would like more levels. Would work well as an iPhone app where you tilt your phone!

AAARRGGGHHHH! Why that stupid egg does not fall where I want it to. I've been walking on egg shells after playing this game as I broke nearly a million eggs trying to complete this game and yet failed to pass even the third level. Very creative take on the theme quite quirky as well .Loved the game so much. Maybe it was a tad more difficult for me.

Nice job. It would be great to take control of the next object sooner. Say, the the instant the egg has left the bounding box just above the provious object then control switches to the next object, or something. It would be fun to be able to try to catch the egg and recover from a misaligned fall! Nice visuals too, the faces drawn on the eggs are a good addition :)

One of my favourites entries this LDJAM, I really like the mechanism of the game, is simply but also provides satisfaction to the player.
