- The gameplay is good and it was a nice change of pace being super simple and straight forward with the proper responsive controls to match. However i don't think this fits the theme at all and shouldn't be eligable for prizes. It was lucky the game wasn't disqualified.
- Simple game but gameplay wasn't really satisfying. The rigid movement and the missing physics on the buildings definitely breaks the immersion.
Tell us about your game!
Stack the buildings as high as possible, but avoid crushing your pigeon companions!

Hey which game genra your game fits in ?is it point and click games ?
if so,
Point-and-click games, if properly made, can be pleasant, challenging, and fun experiences. Sometimes, with simplicity, we can achieve good results.

The concept of stacking has been proven time & time again to be an addictive one - The only thing I would say is that the 'tick' movement makes it super easy to play. It would be nice to have normal non tick style movement & good physics as well. I felt that sound could have made a difference (I now see how much no sound has hampered my game's exp lol) nice work with the pigeon haha
Thanks for the feedback, I agree that some physics would have gone a long way. Although in terms of the snappy movement of the blocks, that was intended as I wanted the game to feel more arcade-y. Regardless, thanks for taking the time to play my game and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Simple game, but it worked due to this simplicity. Missed the damn bird the first time and had it squatted.
In general, a bit of sound would have been a nice addition. Nice entry all-in-all!
Thanks for the feedback, definitely agree that a bit of sound would've helped!
Nostalgic game, well done! Loved to play in the similar Java game - Tower Bloxx :)
Haha did not expect that pigeon appearing here, it refreshed the gameplay instantly. Pretty simple but interesting game, well done!
Thanks! I'm happy with how the pigeon always catches people off guard at first haha
The artwork goes well together, the pigeon is a nice addition, would be good to be penalised the longer you wait to drop the next block maybe by droping the height of the crain slowly over time
Good point! Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed the game :)
My best score was 58. Sorry pigeon.
