Another Day Another Box is a short, physics-based 2D puzzle platformer set inside a mysterious factory where everything exists on a strict grid and gravity rules all.

You are a factory worker.
Your entire job is pushing boxes.
No instructions.
No safety regulations.
Sounds simple… until you realize that every box moves, falls, slides, stacks, and reacts to physics, just like you do!

📦 CORE MECHANICS

🧍 Player

• Fast left/right movement (your legs are strong, don’t worry)
• Jump up to 1.5 cells high
• Full air control for precise landings and bad decision

📦 Boxes

• All boxes are exactly one cell
• Boxes can only be pushed when they are completely still (they need a moment to think)
• Pushing moves a box one cell at a time

🎯 Target Boxes

• Some boxes must be placed in specific target cells
• A level is completed when the target box is stationary and in the right place
• Target boxes can behave like normal boxes or sliding boxes (you will not know peace)

🧊 Sliding Boxes

• Once pushed, they keep moving until they hit a wall
• No skipping cells, no teleporting
• Very fun when planned. Very annoying when not.

🪜 ENVIRONMENT MECHANICS

Ladders

• Hold Up to grab and climb
• Only works when the lower half of the player touches the ladder (upper half does not count, sorry)
• You can climb slightly past the top
• You can jump off ladders because safety training was skipped

Railings

• Platforms that only interact with boxes
• Boxes can fall through or be stopped depending on placement
• The player walks through them like they’re not even there
• Think Smash Bros platforms, but only the boxes suffer

⏱️ SPEEDRUN & REPLAYS

• Every level has a stopwatch
• The timer does not yell at you. It doesn’t need to.
  
•  “okay one more run”

🎮 CONTROLS

Keyboard

• A / D — Move
• Z or Space — Jump
• X or Enter — Push box
• ↑ / ↓ — Climb ladders

Simple controls. The factory complicates things.
