Adorable art style and dastardly puzzles. Well done!

Good game concept. It's definitely fun to play, but the physics are still very bugged and level 5 is simply not possible even after many attempts. Nevertheless, good thought and good implementation

Developer

how did you try to solve level 5?

Submitted(+1)

Nice game! Concept is cool. Physics probably need some tweaking in order to feel good to play. Nice job!

Submitted(+1)

Pretty cute, and fun to play! However, I encountered a lot of bugs, like shapes clipping through eachother

Dino is very cute!

Not a very new idea, but it is well executed. Have potential to be extended to a larger game.

really really cool idea! You could add so much to this very easily. personally the only thing I kinda hated was having to press enter every time to change modes. I dont think it is necessary. I would just have wasd switch to dino mode you no more editing can be done, then when the mouse clicks switch to edit mode.

Fun and challenging! And the art style is cute. The ability to rotate the items would be cool.

Submitted

It's very cute! For level 5 (Rough ramp), i figured I needed to rotate the cubes, I've managed to do it a couple times but the physics engine glitched out, so I couldn't complete  it =(

Developer

Thanks! Yeah unreal has some janky physics and didn’t know exactly how to fix it.

Submitted

Really cool game! Nice visuals, creative gameplay, and it's also quite polished. Well done!

Fun little game. What engine did you use, I don't recognize the loading screen? I would suggest working a little bit more on the polish and overall feel. Great job!

It would be awesome if you could rate my game too!

Developer

I used unreal engine

Fun idea! The dino seems to be able to surmount any slope no matter how steep so i was able to cheese most of the levels with that :p I feel the controls would have been a bit easier if the size was determined by clicking and dragging (i was struggling on the first level to get the two boxes the right size for a while o_o )

Great art and fun concept!

Submitted

This is adorable and I love it! Great job

Submitted

Fun idea, Liked the game feel especially placing and deleting blocks, I walked off the map and the whole game crashed, rebooted and worked fine second time though. Awesome job.

Developer

Hehe yeah i forgot to put bounds for the dino. Unreal automatically kills the character when they fall a certain distance and then ur stuck...

Submitted

interesting puzzle mechanic! tho the control feels bit off due to switching between mouse and keyboard

Submitted

Very fun! I am definitely not smart enough for this game but it's very fun! The concept itself leads to a lot of interesting possibilities, so I'd love to see this idea get expanded further!

This was super fun! I was initially frustrated by Dino’s very short jump, but when I realized I can go into dino mode while blocks are still falling, I solved a few levels by jumping up to sloped blocks in the air. Speeding up slopes and jumping at the peaks felt super satisfying. Also loved the art and music :)

This is such a cute lil game, my only criticism is just having the delete shape mapped to the same as creating meant I ended up deleting alot of shapes I didn't mean to but other than that I had a great time, well done!

Fun! I got stuck on level 5 though that one was hard
