How to play:

WASD or arrows to move.

Click and drag books to your basket (up to 4 books) or to any library.

Game has two phases

First you will receive new books from the rightmost library.

Then a client will arrive at the leftmost window asking for some of your books.

You have limited time, be tidy, failing the clients request or getting your incoming books library overfilled will end the game!

(EDIT) I think this game would be great with some tweaks, mainly in making things clearer with instuctions and labelling.

Also, I think you should be rewarded for filling orders quickly so you don't just lose all that extra time. Either by giving us that extra time to sort books or with points.

I like the bell signifying the start of a new phase but it would help showing that visually too. A spark effect and the word "Phase 2" or "Lending phase" for example.

A mute button and volume control would be handy but that's nitpicking. Same with why you need to fly into the ceiling.

I appreciate the cute character and simple gameplay. I understand it's a jam game.

Oh, another thing. The books have tiny pixel marks which are difficult - but not hard - to distingush when looking for books. However, some patterns are mirrored and are a real strain on the eyes to check - especially in a hurry.

I will try to see if it's any better in fullscreen.
