How did you implement the theme?
The whole game is set in a fantasy kingdom, objects, liquids and stuff have fantasy names and there are magical objects such as wands.
How did you add the special object?
The bucket is the key of the game as you play as an inspector checking buckets for your kingdom.

It's like "Papers Please," but with buckets and a disconnected scale. A little stupid, I liked it 10/10.
Thanks! Matter of fact I noticed that the scale was unplugged only after I actually submitted the game lol... it's a magic scale!
I was really impresses opening the game! And I would love to see more indications on what people need to be checked on!
Although, it took me a little while to figure out you have to press 'e' to take the passport and bucket. And the first day was a bit too repetitive and easy, but I think that's just my preference. Well done!
Looking back a hint to press E would have definitely been helpful, also I agree with you, days feel a bit too long, especially the ones where you don't unlock anything. Thanks a lot tho and I'm happy you liked it!
Very neat implementation of the Papers Please type genre. Clever!
I love how in this clearly ancient kingdom, everyone has modern passports. Love the game, could use a bit more polish though.
I had some trouble getting something to happen, it seems like it gets stuck on the first person sometimes. But I like the twist on the obvious inspiration! Good job on the theme and special object. I'd like to see a little more refinement in the gameplay and polish, and I think it could be really fun.
Thanks a lot! For the person issue I think it might be a browser issue, since the game isn't really light your browser may have trouble playing it? You can try to download the Windows version in the downloads section and see if it still bugs. :=)
