Very cool idea. I really like the art and the menu music is nice. I would have put that in the actual game as well but the ambience is not totally quiet so its not that big of an issue.
I think the preview tiles could have been done differently, namely snapping them onto the train grid instead of having them float with the character, I think that might have been more intuitive (atleast for me lol).
Great job!
We have that coded and wanted to add it in as an option in the settings and I just didn't have time. Definitely a good call out, thanks for playing!
Brilliant, great little puzzle game, looks cute, plays well. Definitely one I'd come back to, and to include full tutorial in as well, excellent job.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it! I enjoyed putting the tutorial together in a sort of cheeky way, even though it required probably more time and resources than I should've put into it. Was very happy with how it came out!
Super cute game. A really clever idea that fit the theme well and it was very well executed. I loved the art and sound. There was a pretty funny glitch where if you pick up a passenger and then set them back on the platform, sometimes they'll fly off with the train. 😂
Hahah I noticed that in one of my plays after uploading, but it was too late to do anything about it. Nothing game-breaking, but we'll definitely fix it after the jam. Glad you enjoyed it!
simple and effective :) the art and the audio make a good atmosphere, only the "dropping" could somehow snap better imho. It felt pretty polished still! Not sure if you planned this, but you could also try to make certain people avoid each other, so you should not place them near each other.
I actually suggested we include reactions, like the dog next to the baby makes him cry and such. It was way out of scope for the jam, but that's definitely something I want to include if we work on it further!
Great execution on a simple idea with a nice twist to fit the theme.
Sound and art are very nice and game is quite polished
Did get a little bored at the end, not due to lack of difficulty just felt a little repetitive
That's fair, and we want to add a few new mechanics if we can after the jam, but kept scope small in order to execute on the rest!
I like the idea and it's executed well, especially for a game jam game. The menu has great pixel art, the characters are individual and expressive.
Thanks, we really appreciate the kind words!
This is a smart use of the theme and puzzle aspect! I really enjoyed this. I think all it needs is the little extra post jam polish like some progress messaging between rounds.
I really like the art style. The different configuration of passengers with suitcases or babies was great execution and staying on theme.
Frog was very cute too :)
Thanks! Means a lot!
Very well done, I like the idea, also the background noise is spot on, fun game, I would have added "snapping" onto the grid, sometime it's difficult to make out the exact position. Very well polished, the art is fantastic.
We actually had it at one point and I made the bone-headed decision to disable it before we actually had levels in place. It's definitely going back in after the voting period!
Great game.. Difficult to get the passengers to snap in place. Seems like you have to hit the exact right sub pixel. Style is very consistent.
I hear you! I had a different method of movement implemented that was better, but forgot to put the option for it in the settings, doh! Thanks for the suggestion and kind words!
Pretty solid puzzle game! The Drag&Drop action was a bit finicky, other than that it was pretty fun! Getting more and more difficult :)
Yeah, we had a different mode for that implemented but I forgot to put it into the settings, would have made it better. Thanks for playing though!
It was my pleasure!
Really fun puzzle game! I think my one complaint is that rotating with the mouse wheel while dragging can feel a little awkward. If you were to switch the grabbing to a toggle instead of a hold it might work better. I could really play this game for a long time though. Good work!
We had several debates over it! That was definitely one of the options. Thanks so much for the great feedback!
