Fun game! There were plenty of different mechanics and tasks to keep track of. Well done!

Submitted

Nice game, I was a bit confused at first but after figuring it out it was fun to play. Also kind of funny how my game has a similar cleanup concept lol. Nice entry man

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! Your game is fun! It’s interesting to see a different take on the cleaning concept :)

Submitted

No worries :) Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy it. Hah yeah always neat to see the different creative ways people can tackle similar concepts

Submitted

Impresive for a solo dev, had fun playing it, the only thing i would like is press psace to grab and drop the items, my brain was too stupid to press other key to drop the items^^’

Thanks for playing and for the feedback!

Cool idea! I couldn't figure out how to bake a cake and ended up failing, but the game definitely captured the spirit of the theme! Well done!

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Thanks for playing! Part of the game was to find out where things were and how to complete the tasks, but maybe I could’ve explained some things better.

The cake takes a couple of steps:

Find the flour (it’s in one of the cabinets)

Pour it into the bowl

Pour the content of the bowl into the cake tray

Put the cake tray in the oven

Close the oven

And you have to take it out as soon as the oven timer turns red.

Thanks for the feedback!

Cool concept with a lot of potential! I think this concept deserves more polish and better overall execution: sfx would be great, visuals and gameplay could be tightened a little bit too. Keep it up!

Nice game! I think it would be nice to add sounds and fix the bug with the wall. But everything else is great, keep going!

Developer

Thanks for playing! I appreciate the feedback!

Submitted

i really liked the game, i played all and i got nervous to bake a cake lmao but sometimes, u can bug in the wall, but it's a really nice game

Developer

Glad you liked it! I think the player gets trapped in the door if you close it while you’re crossing it, I didn’t have time to fix it :(.

Submitted

I was really invested in cleaning the house haha

I lost on easy by locking myself in a wall, but then I won on normal and hard (even though I locked myself in a wall as I won so I couldn't open to my friends and celebrate). Despite this small bug, it was really satisfying cleaning the messy house. I also like that tasks that are done can be undone if you do things wrong.

Well done, I had fun!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted

Nice little game. Really enjoyed cleaning my flat. At the beginning I sometimes wasn't really sure what to do but I figured out after a while. I love all the little tasks that need to be done. Great work!

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Submitted

I had fun moving things around—washing dishes, taking out the trash, and cleaning stains. It gets really challenging when there’s a lot of mess!

I think adding some chill background music and cleaning sound effects would make it even more enjoyable. The game is already fun! 

Developer

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! Yeah, I was gonna add sound but I wasn’t sure how to do it

Submitted

Wow! Had a great time playing! The physics and pushing things around while trying to organize everything led to some wonderful chaos! Felt so much stress trying to figure out how to get tasks done, loved how the ending unfolded! Great use of the theme!

Having a bit more feedback to know whether the position is correct or not on the furniture I think could help improve the feel. Of course music and sounds would also greatly improve the games feel!

Great work! Really enjoyed playing through this, loved the game!

Developer

Thank you so much! Thanks for the feedback! For the furniture placement, I made that a green circle appears around the furniture if it’s correctly placed, but it was kinda rushed and I agree that it could be improved (maybe with a sound, or better visual effects).

Submitted

Awww what a cute game! Love how you interpreted the theme. what a sweet game. The gameplay was fun, reminded me of a more chill plate up. Moving furniture was a little tricky and I did get the couch and a chair stuck in the corner, but thankfully my friends are so nice and forgiving lol. Great job, I really enjoyed this one!

Developer

Thanks for playing!

I like the idea behind the game :) it was a bit hard to play as for some reasons it was full screen on my laptop but the instructions panels were super small ^^' , I think it's worth to continue working on that game :) I like it. Not sure how to add much more levels but I am sure you can find something.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! Probably I should’ve tried the game in different browsers but I forgot :(. Hope you still enjoyed it despite the bug. I was thinking of adding more rooms or more chores like doing laundry etc..

Submitted

Yes maybe, try to see if you can add some more challenges / puzzles / tasks and things like that :) between the puzzle and the simulator kind of

Submitted

This is a quite nice little game! I like the general idea of the game, and although at the end of the day it's just chores, it's somehow fun to do that in a video game. The gameplay loop is easy enough to understand too. Nice

For some criticism, I'd say the game would really benefit from some music and sound. It's a very good touch to put the controls on-screen at all times, but it would also be good if there was time for the player to read the instructions before starting to play the game. Think of doing something like "Press space to start", with the instructions shown clearly. I would also suggest that the furniture should snap into the correct position when you place it down. I can still be pushed around for sure, but for perfectionists like me it's quite pail to see them placed off slight to a side.

Anyway, keep on making games and keep up the good work!

Developer

Thank you so much for the feedback! Pressing space to start and furniture snapping into placement are very good ideas! Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Reminds me a lot of those cleanup games like Powerwash Simulator or Crime Scene Cleanup. Good job :)

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Submitted

I really enjoyed this! The different mechanics for each task kept things engaging, and the concept is super relatable.

Developer

Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted

nice game! only thing that bothers me is that the input sometimes doesn't work when I try to grab things, but overall really nice concept :)

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, the input might be a bit glitchy. I appreciate the feedback!

Submitted

Clever idea for a game! I think it would be nice to have the same button both interact and drop things instead of using two separate buttons for it. 

Nice job!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

It was actually kind of fun to do the chores. :-)

What I was missing most were some sounds. I hope it was not a fault on my side, but I didn't hear anything.

But good job!

Developer

Thank you so much! I didn’t have time to add sound and music, hopefully next time I’ll be able to.

Submitted

Really cool game

Developer

Thanks!
