I loved the idea and i think it could be further explored. Maybe you could have more sfx for digging or placing tiles. The animals are really cute. Nice work!
Could you try our game too? It's a 2d platformer, and it was our second game jam and one of our first games so far! Your feedback would be really appreciated!

DipetyI found myself playing this game twice to fully grasp the controls and the game's objective. Initially, the controls felt a bit clunky, as I struggled to read the font at the beginning and mistakenly believed I needed to press keys like J or C to place blocks, when it was actually L. The time limit added to the stress, and I overlooked that the question mark blocks provided upgrades. Nevertheless, the pixel art in the game is truly impressive, and the fact that you created all the assets and code is commendable. The AI for the animals felt somewhat awkward, and it took me until my second playthrough to understand how it worked. I managed to rescue four out of five animals in the end. Despite the initial difficulties, it's a charming little game. Really cool, keep up the great work! :)

Neuro DiveNice game, I really like the art and the audio.
But there is a lag when getting the upgrade, it made me miss out what upgrades I have gotten and also the animals got stuck within the blocks when I am building upwards.
Nevertheless, awesome game, hope you both continuing creating games and good luck!

Echelons of LossGreat work!
Things I enjoyed ✔️
- The gameplay was very fun and intuitive!
- Loved the art style it was great!
- Audio was fantastic!
Things I would like to possibly see with your title. 🤷♂️
- Honestly all I would recommend is shrinking the upgrade ui, it was a little too big in my opinion.
- Id recommend having arrows pointing to where the animals are to make it a lot easier on the player.
Overall 📓
Had alot of fun playing this game! You both should be very proud of this game because it is great! I had lots of fun, and I could see this game getting big!

Fishing Time 🎣I think the game kinda lack visual/audio feedback for the player's action. For example, placing block/breaking block/saving animal, etc! Cute graphic btw!

Chroma ManiaI didn't find the cat, I'm very sad. I'll have to try again.
The game is very good, the idea is one of the most creative I've seen, it's crazy

Space DrillerOnce I understood I was a caveman saving animals, I had a laugh. Strange idea, but I liked it and kinda had fun too! And I'm sure I heard the music somewhere else, but I cannot put my finger on it.

Dreamscape DescentAn alright game, other than the fact that animals block from placing blocks.
