I REALLY enjoyed this!! I was only sad I couldn't get even more requests done haha. Once I found the setting to turn off the auto-drag it was even more fun. These kind of relaxing repair games are right up my alley so I cannot wait to see where you guys take this and if it becomes a full game I would absolutely support it!
It's fun, I feel like it could be even better if there was an option to make the game less handholdy. Right now the game manages all the components for you, and even though there is the option to drag and drop all parts, you can just click them which in my opinion makes the game slightly to simple. Other than that, it's nice, comfy and fun.
Hey! Thank you so much :3 We decided to go for the "drag and drop from an anchor point to another" since it deeply resonated with our chill and relaxing mood.
In the "game" settings there's an option that removes the auto-anchor of the screwdriver, we could do the same for the auto drag and drop!
Hi! Thank you so much for your feedback :D Could you please help us by explaining what felt unnatural in the screwdriver to you? We're working on polishing gestures as much as possible so it's super super appreciated!!
When using the scroll wheel to screw and unscrew things it's pretty much impossible to not have to consistently stop and restart the motion, just due to the way your fingers have to move to scroll. This inability to commit to one fluid motion for one action ends up making it feel rather slow.
Hey! English is the only language available so far but we're working on localizing it in other languages as well. We should start around mid september!
It was cute enough Just had an Issue and Also Not to you but Most Game devs Never show controls in game which I wouldn't mind cuz I dont wanna Really on the Game page cuz I forget easy, other than That had fun and a Bug when Battery wasn't considered changed.
im sorry too I may Have been a bit too mean I was just tired as Hell when I played, prob should've played sooner rather than Later, also thanks for responding
Great relaxing game with a nice charm to it. However I encountered a few technical problems while playing, specifically trying to read the repair manual I was having trouble getting the pages to turn, I tried clicking the corners, holding the left mouse button down and dragging it across and even clicking the edges of the page, nothing, whenever I was able to turn a page it felt more like it happened out of chance. So a "turn page" button would be nice.
Also I feel as though some "photo" system would be nice to add as well, I can't speak for everyone here but whenever I repair something in real life I take a photo of each step I made so when I put it back together I have references to remember where things go. A function such as that would be very handy indeed.
Looking forward to trying out the full release everntually.
And thanks for your feedback, we will work on making the manual's swiping more intuitive. The photo system would be super cool to implement! It's already a thing for customization (works a bit differently tho) so it could be doable and a nice touch.
Again: thanks a lot, if you want to stay up to date feel free to join our community on Discord!!
the game is cool but so far my main issue is the animations. these really need to be a lot more snappy, and in some places honestly there shouldnt be any animations at all (like the chips for example)
also, generally i do think everything is just too simple. same screw type, same chips, and same wires. little to no variation in anything here and lack of depth in many things.
i dont know if it should be super advanced or similar to actually tinkering around with these things irl (though, that would be fire) but it definitely needs just like... more. lol.
Hey! Thank you so much for your feedback. As for the animations and improved feedback: yep, we definitely need to keep working on that.
As for the inside of the consoles: we chose to make the circuits similar to each other by simplifying and using modular pieces. So it shouldn't look like the real thing. But we do need more variety in a full release! We want to add more tools and more stuff to do with the circuits :D
I adored this game! I love the art style and the sound design is super fun! Movement at times could feel a bit slow or clunky, which bothered me at times, but it also helped me to approach things more methodically. I can't wait to see the full release!!
Hi! Thank you so much <3 We're planning both to work on the animations to make them smoother and to add a feature toggleable by the player to adjust their speed to play the game at their own pace.
That's awesome and sounds like a good compromise so that both speedy and slower playstyles have a way to play comfortably. Awesome work and thanks for the reply ^^
This is such a healing experience considering i MURDERED my 3ds when i was tryna repair it irl.... I still have the parts in a bag so I can hopefully reassemble it someday
I installed this game via the itch.io app and the only compressed file I could find was a gz(ip) file with the file manifest in it having gotten this error (except that only the C++ Runtime was missing) - I'm not surprised as I have DirectX installed and given the dozens of games I have played on this machine I also have just shy of a dozen MS Visual C++ runtimes installed so either your one is very old (I've everything more recent, 32 and 64-bit) or the ones already installed are not being checked... this is an issue because there is a limit to the number of times I want this single library installed, thank you (especially since nothing is kind enough to uninstall it once they are done with it :( - least of all MS :( :(
As a quick fix I would recommend is downloading the game from the site instead than using the app! If you do that you should find a folder that, once unzipped, presents the .exe and 2 folders (picture below):
In the meantime me and one of the progs are trying to wrap our head around what happens when using the itch.io app- it's the first time we're hearing of something like this, so we're sorry for the inconvenience!
No problem, thank you for the workaround and apologies... it seems that the app is not so popular though it is pretty useful for my gaming needs! (I guess a lot of devs might not find it so useful? But for me it is a better version of Steam! :D - faster, simpler and with a better selection of good games ;)
Thank you again and once I've given the game a fair try I'll leave a review :)
Let us know if it works!! We are currently trying to address as many bugs and recurring issues as possible and- it's super understandable the itch app might be a better choice for many people!
Hey there! I had so much fun with your game. The atmosphere and overall color choice is so soothing. I loved the simplified but noticeable attention to detail when it comes to fixing consoles. I may have encountered a few bugs but it also may have been user error. Either way, I hope you don't mind but I made a Let's Play of my experience with your game. I can't wait to see more. ๐
I really really loved this game! Such a shame it was only 3 consoles, I'd love to have more things to repair :') Thank you so much for your hard work! <3
love this game. literally one of the best repair games i played in a while. hoping to see more content in the future! (and for some reason lunching through playnite crashes the game... i hope this could be looked into in the future
Incredibly enjoyable game. I love the relaxing atmosphere, a stark difference from my experiences doing this kind of work in real life. Hope to see the game continue to grow!
Very cute and fun game! I ran into some bugs that made it impossible to finish the level twice and the screwdriving often took very long since the animation has to finish, but honestly they didn't spoil my experience in the long run :)

really laggy on my laptop, but I'm sure it's a great game
Hey! Sorry for the late reply :( What are the specs of your device?
Plus: did you set graphics to minimum?
once you reminded me that I could change the graphics, I lowered them and now it's fine. I had fun playing it, thank you!
Yayyy!!! So glad to hear you had fun :3

A fun little game, but the control for the screwdriver feels a little clunky to me, which given how much you use it can end up being a bit of a drag.

How many language have this game?When only english well good idea be make more language(German Spanish Russian and another)
Hey! English is the only language available so far but we're working on localizing it in other languages as well. We should start around mid september!
This game is absolutely gorgeous.
Thank you!!!! : 3
Thank you so much for playing our game and for the video!

Wow, this game is so chill and adorable! It is so satisfying..
Thank you so much!!
it sadly wont let me play on my type of macbook :(((
So sorry to hear that :( I'm pretty sure the issue lies in Unreal Engine, which MacBook do you have?

I'm pretty sure it's unreal + old version then :/ Again, so sorry to hear this and for my late reply

hehehe my first attempts at repairing/modding old consoles went... pretty much the same lol I'm sure you will make it!
It doesn't work for me. i try to download but it says something is missing. does anyone in windows also have this problem?
