Fun sound track & this one effect was so funny, is it your voice? :D

It was hard to go around repairing all, without destroying but I liked that challenge! c:

Developer

The music we had from an asset pack. Link is on the itch page. The sound effects are from the community. We streamed the development and asked people to send some "troooeeet" sounds. That are voices.

Physics are maybe a little bit too aggresive but i like the idea. Keeps you entertained for a few minutes :)

It's like our game..but in reverse! haha your game definitely managed to get across the feeling of being clumsy, it was super difficult not to knock the items over that I had just repaired :')

Submitted(+1)

It's basically a game about me... xD

Developer

About many people. So you are a smart and beautiful janitor?

I like the idea of elephant that trying to clean room but destroys it not on purpose. Really cute, would be nice also have winning screen when you finally have cleaned the room

Developer(+1)

We forgot to put in a hint that you need to leave the room to get the result screen. Will add it in a patch.

The game looks fun! The idea is fun too, but I don't think it's suitable to develop further. However, it's definitely one of the best games in this jam!

Developer

I usually dont start jams with the intention to work on them further. It limits you too much and the jam is about making something for a few minutes fun. Im doing  games as full time job where it is all about that, so I enjoy a game jam where I can forget about all this requirments :D If accidently something emerges that has more potential thats cool, but never my goal.

You have to check out our game! We have hilariously similar concepts. Great work btw

Developer

Did already. Nice interpretation as well! It shows that even with the same idea people will come up with very different results. Execution matters more than the idea.

Funny and chaotic game. It was also nice to be able to watch the creation process.

Submitted(+2)

If you're short on patience, you definitely shouldn't play this game! xD This game pushed us to our limits. But it's definitely a very funny interpretation of the theme, and it's also superbly executed.

I just barely made it out. Tippy-toeing the elephant through the repaired office xD

Glorious destruction derby.

Err. Repair marathon.

It is so hard haha and making me angry - I actually gave up after a few minutes haha. 

Great game haha good job :)

Oh no makes me feel like an elephant in the porcellain store :D Cool idea

Submitted(+1)

Funny game with a cool concept :)

Fixed everything but leaved the map the wrong way, felt out of the world and had to do it again :P

Developer

hehe. Yeah. We realized too late, we don’t block the exit. Sorry about that. I think we will do a tiny patch for it.

The comedic "don't break anything when walking through a tiny office as an elephant" really comes across! :D Would love to have some juicy smashing and destroying objects sound effects to make it stand out even more. Cool game idea!

Developer(+1)

totally agreed. We run out of time with polishing that. Some more sounds would go a long way. Also some destruction. 

Submitted(+2)

You've created something special here; keep up the awesome work!

Great to play. Who should maintenance stuff when not an elephant?

Submitted

The music is so good

Developer(+1)

Be aware it’s from an asset pack. 

Submitted(+1)

Ah, I absolutely love this art style! The music and sound effects complement it perfectly, creating a great atmosphere. And, of course, it goes without saying: It fits the theme spot on!

I did notice some lag at certain points, but the game mechanics still held up well despite that. Overall, a really well-made and enjoyable game. Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Be aware we mainly used the asset packs we linked. But thanks. We spend quite some time and to find fitting ones and adjusted them.

Nice game - nice work. I flip a table and cant repair the things that were on the table - but i really love the idea. I would also like the idea of the elephant in the "china shop".
