I like the concept of the conveyor belts changing, I think the game would be more fun if you made the player move faster and/or made the boxes closer together for a more manic experience. Also if the player was bigger and easier to see I think that would be better too

Very nice game. Very simple but cool graphics. After some time the game gets a little bit repetitive.

A pretty nice concept for a game! It gave me a fright when the conveyor belt first shifted, but I did like the game feel of slowing down as you pushed boxes. Made things actually feel like they had weight to them. You've got a simplistic art style that help with not obscuring what's going on, which is neat. Nice job!

What this game really needs is both something - anything - to happen and make it more fun, and some visual feedback to make it more enjoyable. In the current state, it mostly feels like a chore and isn't particularly rewarding.

The idea is good, and there is potential in the game, but there should be a focus on having it be fun to play, and I'm sure there could be just one small tweak to make the whole experience come together.

Good work still, keep at it!

At first I thought, well this should be quite easy. Then the conveyer belts started changing and chaos ensued xD I'd be impressed if someone could actually keep things under control. I like that you can push multiple boxes around at once. Nice work :)

Thanks for feedback. If not the time limit i would add a secret/unlockable level. I like this game and the jam. :)
