Cool game!

It looks good and it is really polished :)

Submitted

Pretty cool artstyle and the game feels very responsive...

Good Job HazyMajor!

Submitted

Good job. I like the idea of reversed arkanoid. Love to see PICO-8 used here.

Submitted

Definitely like this game. Not sure if there is much strategy (I just spammed every resource as it came up), but the presentation and polish are very good.

Submitted

Truly a timeless Idea!
This was honestly a very fun playthrough! firstly the Idea is brilliant, to take such a classic like Breakout and flip it to make this concept is quite smart of you so kudos on the creativity!

visually the game is quite pleasing, the soft art-style works well and I like the color palette of choice,
it goes without saying that I dig the Idea and the gameplay, I had lots of fun, and the gameplay loop albeit repetitive, is tons of fun, this is obviously a limitation of the original concept thusno problem there honestly, overall it feels quite rigid and polished, well done,

overall quite the solid entry, and a memorable one at that, great work!

Submitted

Interesting concept and fun! Absolutely love the artstyle, it's very charming!

Submitted

I really like the play on the theme, both in terms of mechanics and the story. I got to like 90 seconds but after that it does get a bit difficult :D If you plan to work on this after the jam, maybe you could introduce some power ups, that could randomly appear after piggies destroy a block, and player can pick them up with RMB. In line with the tale, it could for example be like wolf blowing, which would keep piggies away for some time and let you regenerate blocks, or he could even eat them to decrease number of piggies. All in all, it's a great jam game with interesting theme, that can be expanded further. Good job!

Really cute. Nice work.

Submitted

really nice the whole aesthetic and the  theme.

I love a good pico-8 game. I got to 86 seconds.

Very interesting choice to use Pico 8, and great game overall!

Submitted

Great take on the theme, very original! Loved the art, and the game felt good to play. Only thing missing for me was some music.

Developer

Thanks for checking it out. Lack of music is partly time constraint partly I have no idea how to make music in pico 8.

Submitted

Really nice game, with a creative concept that i did not already saw in this year's games. Well done :D

Submitted

I got to four piggies. Which is more than the cannon so I'll say it's a win.

Submitted

very clever game! I love how you twist arkanoid to defense game!
cute artwork as well, it was lovely experience

Submitted

this little piggy went to the market... this little piggy... IS COMING TO GET YOU!! This was a fun game and clever theme. I like the branding and style of your page as well. 

Submitted

Nice polished game, but lacks brick variety. My record is not big, just around 1 minute :)

Developer(+1)

Thaks for playing! I agree, more brick types would be a good addition. For the jam I just wanted to limit it to the traditional materials in the 3 little pigs story.

Submitted

The art was really cute and the concept is very creative! Good job!

Submitted

Nice take on the theme and execution too, specially with the jam's small time window.

 Bonus points for using PICO-8: I never got the hang of using it hahaha

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Pico-8 can be pretty limiting but I find that it helps me keep the scope under control when it comes to a game jam

Submitted

this is the perfect jam game, great job (:
