In what way does your game fit the theme?
As more red balls appear in the map and start the bounce around everywhere and destroy everything, it becomes more chaotic and harder for the player to keep out all of the chaos.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yup

Cool game! I found it a bit hard to control, I think using the mouse would've been more helpful instead of rotating. the movement was also super floaty which did indeed make it more chaotic since we had less control, but also makes it less fun in my opinion since it was out of my control. Fun game!
Would also appreciate it if you rated our game, thanks!
Super cool idea!! Time is obviously limited during a game jam, but I think it would have been nice if the block placement direction snapped to the mouse position. Is there a win condition? I couldn't seem to reach it.
The game looks great, I loved watching all the balls flying around. It is easier if you don't move and just keep building the same 4 walls over and over, it could probably use something to discourage that. Neat, original idea!
Simple style art, but great, and I love the control, its easy to learn the game! Hows mine?
nice!
Cool game ! The game start calmly and progress to really chaotic situation ! the high momentum movement of player character is make it frustrating and more challenging because it is harder to dodge everything at the same time if it is intentional. And I found that by encircling yourself in a box and spawn infinite amout of shield for defending is an effective strategy (just like sitting in the corner in my game XD).
Good game !! visuals effects are the best.
Maybe add some penalty if you stand still, as doing nothing is very effective
Neat take on the theme and a cool game, i did find the controls a bit unintiuitive but it still enjoyed it!
It gets really intense after a while! I love the idea, reminds me of breakout!
Very innovative game! I feel like it could’ve been explored more though, to become a more fun and an even more unique experience. One suggestion that I have is to add some sort of cooldown to limit how many blocks/bricks you can place at once, otherwise you could just spam them and stay invincible forever. Definitely could have some potential if you find some ways to make the game more engaging!
I was doing nothing and that was enough to get a high score. So it is a nice little game but needs some tweaking for a bigger challenge.
nice game
cool concept and visuals, but it's quite easy to cheese by just staying still
The game is fun and looks good. The audio is nice and its generally quite chaotic. But I did find out if i kept spamming blocks in one place when not moving around in an attempt to cheese the game a bit, that the blocks wouldn't work. The bullets would just move right past them and the blocks would keep following me as if I hadn't placed them at all. But it was clear I had. Not game breaking or another, it actual kind of prevents someone from cheesing the game in this way.
Either way, I enjoyed playing anyways.
This was really neat! My high score was 287!
Love the game idea! still need more work! but still enjoyable!
also check out and rate my game if you interested!
Nice game, I like the concept
The controlls are maybe not optimals. Could have been great to use the mouse for moving blocks.
Interesting concept. Would have loved to have a bit snappier movement. Nice job!
Concept looks interesting but I don't think I understood it. I create box around me but ball transpasses it. Is it a bug or I couldn't play?
