I thoroughly enjoyed the game's sketch-like art style and the innovative concept of scaling objects for movement.
While engaging with the cube in the cube area, I observed that pressing 'E' triggered a pick-up reaction from the cube, but its movement was limited. To address this, I resorted to using the right mouse button to scale it down while interacting, enabling me to drag it near the pressure plate.
However, I hit a roadblock towards the end since the cube won't won't move further then :/
I'm unsure if I missed a crucial element. Perhaps incorporating hints on how to maneuver the cube in that particular area would enhance the experience.
Despite this obstacle, I find the game's concept truly fantastic!😄
Thanks for the feedback.
Yea the cube physics are really janky and were only fixed last minute (it was way worse before). I might put out a hotfix later today but as a tip for when the cube sticks to the ground even when picked up : try running/jumping into it so the cube gets just a bit above ground. Then it should teleport right infront of you.
Edit: There is a new patch out now adressing the bug.
I loved Manifold garden, and i see a strong inspiration from the game, but i think u were able to capture the same feelings. The movement are a little stiff but overall a great experience , i would love to see more puzzle for this game.
Is there a way to play on laptop touchpad? Press left and right mouse button at the same time isn't possible for me.
just pushed out an hotfix which enables you to scale with X and C.
It really hard to grab the cube.....which almost makes the game unplayable
pushed out an hotifx which should fix the bug.
letme see....no, the problem is still there....>_<
another hotfix came out just know. I found the issue and I hope that it works now.
it is really hard to explain with text, so I made a gif
new patch came out. Hopefully it works now
no, it didnt work....T_T
https://itch.io/jam/game-off-2023/rate/2384304 there is another entry about picking up and placing object, and it works really well. maybe you can find some solution from it?
The physics of the cube are a bit janky, but the game is unique and fun. I really like the art style, it kind of fits the theme of a non infinite world.
