Nicely executed !
Thanks for playing our game (❁´◡`❁)
Great idea, pretty challenging, yet simple. Good job :3
Thanks 💕
Great, creative idea! I liked having to alternate between tall and wide shapes. I woul've loved to be able to build multiple buildings next to each other, but they always broke.
I like how smooth it feels to build the shapes! I think I never got the hang of how to move the camera around so that I could build better, I think I have to go back and read if I was doing it right. Congrats on your submission!
Hey, we're sorry you're having trouble controlling the camera(((( To rotate the camera, you need to press the mouse wheel down and move the mouse left or right. Unfortunately tilting the camera up and down is not available at the moment, but we are working on it....
Love the simple yet effective physics in it, really had fun trying to build my weird cube tower! I wish it had a camera mode or just a camera pan-down so we could see and screenshot our towers from different angles!
Thank you for playing❤️, we are thinking about expanding the control functionality in the game, your idea is really cool. 0_о We will try to add it to the game after the end of the jam)))
Really awesome how you implemented a physics system.
The game is unique and fits the theme just right.
Thank you friend, we are glad you enjoyed playing our game ^_^
Simple but efficien!
Ɛ>Thanks for playing<3
Great game! This game's idea is so good! Keep up the good work!
Great little game. Simple, fun and with good physics simulation.
Thanks, buddy <3
I will definitely add your pickaxe to the game next time xd
Simple mechanics, very challenging, i could play for hours. Great job
Thank you <3
Great game! This game's idea is so good! Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
I also ran into a situation where I had no energy left, which was a bummer. Otherwise, it was fun! Nice work building a game!
Thanks for playing!
Yeah, the restart button...
It's almost like jenga except you're building the tower from scratch first. The music fits so well and playing around the energy meter is really good design and makes you want to figure out how to break the system before your own tower breaks.
Thank you for playing, glad you liked it!
I ran out of energy and couldn't build the smallest possible piece :(
Aside from that issue, pretty good work!
Thanks for playing!
suuuper fun game. really simple but feels like I could play for an hour just trying to beat my high score! also the music is a jam
Thaaanks <3
Core concept is fun and balance height vs width is a unique mechanic. I found myself wanting to build more complex structures but the breaking felt pretty sensitive when attempting to do so
Thanks for playing our game!
We tried to find a balance between the fact that with just building the game becomes too easy, and with energy and block explosions - too difficult. Maybe it really was necessary to cut the feature with block explosions and leave only energy and balance it, but we decided to leave both and just tweak the HP and damage numbers.
Maybe it was a mistake :c
Nice game! The energy mechanic is pretty intresting und fun to play around.
Thank you!
Cool game, good controls, gameplay isnt really something special. Overall good job.
Thanks <3
I don't understand the energy concept. It just seems like a limit to how high or wide I can build. Also there is no way to restart if you run out of energy. I really like the music and sounds. It also runs smooth and feels really nice to play. Overall, good simulation, but the gameplay isn't really there.
Yeah, the restart button is a problem. The workaround is just to place a small block outside of the play area by just double-clicking.
About the energy - we added it to force players to hit blocks by each other and make the strategy of "putting only wide blocks into a big tower" ineffective. But you are right, it must be more clear what we want from players and what the rules are.
And we need the restart button.
Thanks for playing our game!
fun little physics based game. Easy to understand and feels good to control.
Thanks!
