I'm not sure if the issue is me playing in the browser, but i can't rotate any objects nor can i select something using middle mouse button.
Well, I played for a bit, had no clue what I was doing whatsoever, but had fun regardless. Cool game!
Important question, did you read the instructions and they weren't very helpful, or did you skip over them like everyone else I showed it to? Feedback is useful.
Yeah you're right, I didn't fully read the instructions and assumed I'd be able to understand intuitively how to play. But, it seems you already know that's an issue. I'd say it'd probably be better to have some sort of step by step tutorial instead of "here's a wall of text that you need to read in order to understand how the game works". (and I know the feeling. I'm making an automation game like this too and playtesters just jump in with no regard for reading how to play. so instead, I opt to help them understand one digestible step at a time, not "everything at once" even if that would be easier)
Also, honestly now that I understand it better, it's actually a pretty awesome game. 5 stars!
I have ideas that would make it a lot easier, a toolbar to select machines, more visible connections between the conveyors, and yeah a tutorial would be nice, but this felt like a good enough stopping point
