Liked the idea of having to connect the vacuum to move through the room, the movement feels kind of weird but everything else is good

I was actually going to use a roomba as the device to clean the room when the limitation was announced, but changed the device to a vacuum once the GMTK theme was announced.
After reading some of the comments, I do think that the controls could be improved, especially with certain hitboxes. I was thinking about using the mouse to point in the direction to face, but decided to use button inputs as I work primarily on a laptop. I'll experiment with using the mouse to point in a certain direction once the rating period ends.
Pretty good game, Its a bit repetitive but the concept and use of the limitation is pretty great, i did find a glitch tho, no idea how i did it, actually i found 2 probably unintentional things, 1 is that u can pick up the outlet and the vaccum at the same time when close to each other, and the second one is that uh, well i can go anywhere i want when the vaccum is turned on, again no idea how i did it, here is a screenshot : (and yes the vaccum is turned on and it succ's)
Thanks for the review! As for the glitches, I was planning on fixing the issue with picking up both the outlet and vacuum at the same time, but didn't have enough time to implement the fix. The second issue I encountered when dropping the vacuum at a specific spot of the vacuum's radius. I thought I fixed it during development, but I later found out that it was still an issue. At that point, I didn't have enough time to fix it, so I put in a reset button just as a last minute fix. I'll work on fixing it once the rating period is over.

Thanks for the review! Your vacuum cord is probably longer than the one in my game xD.
