A hint, sound cue or a small tutorial could've made it su much easyer to grasp. \n\nI'm complaining, bocouse as soon as i got the idea of dragging boxes and furniture - the game transformed into a very pleasant experiance! I enjoyed it alot, so much that when i forgot to take a screenshot i just played it again and had fun repeating unpacking, even managed to find another order to open some crates. Bed assembly took some trial and error, so maybe ingame instruction would've been nice too. Perhaps as one of the books you can unpack and open!\n\nOther then some unintuitive control - a very good job! When you get a grasp of it it's kinda sad thare is only one level, now i want more :))\n\nAnd as for my obligationm if you want you can check other Space LTD games on a jam and join our gang!
