This is a pretty fun little puzzle game. The visuals is good. The game really needs some sound effects and perhaps some music. But overall a well made and fun little jam game. Well done.

So fun to play... love the color palette, great physics and an adecuate implementation of the theme!!

Tetris with physics! Very nicely done. I did find myself wondering if larger pieces had higher mass and using that as a way to "keep down" the load in overloaded trucks, but did not find much success there. I would love to see this done in a slightly different way, with some sort of fail state. I think Tetris-like games in general are great because they add time pressure to the puzzle formula, and I think that would do a lot for this one. All in all though, fully wrapped as a game, with nice visuals and polished mechanics, this is a great entry! :tada: I made $61, don't think I'll be quitting my day job any time soon. :laughing:

Good fit for the theme and a nice physics implementation. Perhaps a clock to indicate the time of day. Wasn't sure at first if I needed to pack a certain amount to get the lorry to leave.

had a similar idea at first but was unable to make it concrete, so I went for a more fluid version.
Your implementation is pretty neat though! Well done!

Nice one, that is a fun game to play. Nice to see Godot producing good games too
I like the sneaky Amazon branding haha

@jk5000 Totally agreed on sound and music! I am new to Godot and spent a lot of time just learning the engine but next game jam I will use again and I would definitely like to incorporate sound and music into it.

@catasha27 @evogengames @jcmonkey @haydads Thank you!

@bloodyaugust Yes the bigger boxes have more weight. It does sorta "keep it down" but the weight wound up not being quite enough to be noticeable. I probably should have increased the weight values a bit to make it more obvious.

@pe7e The primary indicator is the trucks down the right. I would have liked to implement it so the trucks animate down slowly, I think that would have made it more obvious how many trucks you have left but I ran out of time. Next time!

@francisco-lucas Very impressive! Congratulations! Thanks for playing.

Nice little game. Easy to play, tricky to master. Some sounds would've been nice. Good work!

Really fun and quite polished, great job. Nice graphics, no obvious bugs, just well executed.

I did feel slightly limited in my ability to actually strategise - moving left and right obviously introduces chaos, so going left/right, stopping, dropping repeatedly felt best, but also wasn't as fun - not sure if there's any way to add more player control :thinking: Physics is always fun though, good chaos for a mini game haha.

- Pretty cool, neat looking game.
- I liked the physics and it was quite fun throwing stuff around, however it seemed to be better not to wiggle around so you don't lose the package and just drop stuff directly down, since I didn't find it easy to rotate things through the momentum. I just felt this mechanic didn't go too well with neatly arranging boxes, maybe if you would fling boxes at box houses to destroy them?
- Some light music and sounds could be nice.

I managed to find myself playing and getting into a flow state easily while listening to a video on the other tab. Very rare that a compo game manages that for me, so really good job on how relaxing and simple it is to play.

Really easy game to pick up. Looks good with the unclutter style. The physics reliable enough to be able to place the boxes about where I aimed.

Haha, good game! I'm a true professional! A very clever idea to work with the jam theme. One suggestion could be adding different trucks with varying speeds as they move away. Good game!

enjoyed this game quiet a lot. It's not really clear if only count parcels that are in the truck. It was fun trying to throw parcels in front of the truck while it is leaving. Quirky physics games are nice.

Tried to make $90 plus a couple of times and couldn't quite do it, but still had fun!

This was great! There was some really good game design going on like slowly introducing the various shapes so you can learn how to handle the basic ones first. The main mechanic is just really fun, and all the little UX features (telling you how much each box is worth as it drives off, informing you that you lost $ for a dropped package, etc.) made the game super easy to understand. Great job!

Nice idea, and lots of fun to play.
Only thing I found missing was a bit of sound as feedback, and may be a timer to show when truck will be leaving.
There than that, it looks very nice, and the physics feel great.
Great entry. GG.

76$! Like this very much, fun and simple to understand. Think a mode with crazier physics would be fun!

Hey candlesan! (Somewhat) inspired by your videos, I decided to give my impressions in video form this time:

Awesome Compo Game! Really glad you enjoy Godot :D

@trexxak thanks for taking the time to play! Thanks for the video reaction and playthrough commentary and congratulations on the $90 score at the end!
