Thanks for your submission to js13k!\nI’m sure you’ve worked hard on your game, but I’m not aware of how much time you spent on it, so excuse me if things I mention were in your mind, but got left out in the rush of the month or just because you hit the 13kb limit :)</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Great work on:\n<ul>\n<li>Making a complete game, with multiple levels and controls even for mobile :)</li>\n<li>This small twist on the memory cards game. I enjoyed paying attention at the beginning of a level and got a positive feeling when I hit the squares I knew the colours before trying :P</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n<li>I liked that you:\n<ul>\n<li>Made the map wrap around. It’s usually hard to go around the corners willingly, but sometimes it save some time.</li>\n<li>Include a timer and the fuel.</li>\n<li>Added sound effects to the main action in the game.</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n<li>You could improve:\n<ul>\n<li>It is notably hard to make balanced games in game jams, and your game is not immune to that phenomena. The fuel was never in my mind while playing. I could go around the map a couple of times before it run out, so it was very permissive.</li>\n<li>Give it more a factory theme! I liked the colours schemes and it felt I was in some deposit moving boxes around. You could have added variety to the levels by making it more complex factories. Imagine having two rooms where one has the boxes and in the other their destiny, for example.</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Thanks once again!</p>\n"},{"at":316052267,"author":"Justin Gilman","login":"EyeOfMidas","gh":3173530,"url":"https://eyeofmidas.com","twitter":"eyeofmidas","text":"<p>Cute little game! I liked the sound effects the most. The graphics were simple but effectively communicated everything I needed to know.</p>\n<p>It’s especially impressive considering you built the whole game in dom elements instead of rendering them with the canvas.

I wonder if there is perhaps too much of an explanation? But I think you solved that perfectly by allowing the user to play even if they don’t feel they need to read all the instructions. Bravo. The movements are slick and easy to manoeuvre with the controls. I also enjoyed that you had levels and through about how to make the game ‘sticky’.</p>\n<p>I just wonder if the theme of ‘death’ is that present overall?</p>\n"},{"at":316841823,"author":"João Lopes","login":"lopis","gh":2715751,"url":"www.jlopes.dev","text":"<p>Oh this is fun. Just having to move the crates as fast as possible is already a time challenge, but together with the memory aspect, this game is quite tough.\nNice little sound effects and simple but effective graphics. The gameplay is quite polished.\nI’m able to play while the tutorial dialog is showing. Is that on purpose? Also in the first level the colors of the boxes are only visible for a fraction of a second, I didn’t even see them at first.\nI don’t think this fits the theme of death though, just because you “die”.</p>\n","games":["Planet B"]},{"at":316983578,"author":"John Edvard","login":"johnedvard","gh":656024,"url":"https://reitgames.com","twitter":"ReitGames","text":"<p>Well executed game, but I gave up when I reached level 4, because of too many boxes. Maybe adding more colors would make it more challenging rather than having more shelves and boxes?\nThe controls are easy to use, and the graphic is simple, yet fitting.\nSound effects are nice, and I love the short tutorial in the begging. The dialogues are also fun to read. Would be fun and comic if the truck driver shouted some (curse) words when he made a mistake.</p>\n","games":["Hang by a thread"]},{"at":317304453,"author":"Jerome Lecomte","login":"herebefrogs","gh":1383818,"url":"herebefrogs.com","text":"<p>Kudos for building all this with DOM and CSS!!!</p>\n","games":["Stand By Me"]}],"results":{"theme":{"rank":145,"min":1.05,"score":1.36,"max":4.5},"innovation":{"rank":70,"min":1.19,"score":2.73,"max":4.11},"gameplay":{"rank":60,"min":1.09,"score":2.86,"max":4.33},"graphics":{"rank":116,"min":1.62,"score":2.36,"max":4.7},"audio":{"rank":69,"min":1,"score":2.45,"max":4.43},"controls":{"rank":33,"min":1.05,"score":3.32,"max":4.33},"primary":{"rank":93,"min":7.53,"score":15.09,"max":25.2},"label":"Overall"}}
