I had so much fun playing this! Often I would be in super tense situations, praying that I would get enough money to balance the scales! I was super invested the entire time!
Really creative idea! I made a chaos town of danger and instability. How thrilling
Very Cute and Fun. love the take on the theme
Very Cute and Fun. love the take on the theme
This is really well done! The style is cute and the mechanics feel pretty complete. Good job!
Really cool game , I love that you have to manage a city and at the same time balance the whole city, Really enjoy playing it ,My high score is 810 : )
I just came back to say that after showing this game to a friend, we both ended up playing it for 40 mins trying to beat each others scores. This is my favourite game of the Jam, well done!
Thanks, thats really nice to hear! :>
This game has so much charm to it! Great work, I loved the idea and had a big grin on my face whilst playing!
I loved this game!
This game genuinely gave me a big smile on my face, the little guys hopping around, the inevitable collapse, really cute, very fun
I think this game should be in the top 20. It has a innovative concept, perfect execution, fun game play and wounder full art. I'm rooting for this game.
Good luck
Thanks for your kind words!
Cool Concept!
omg. I love the little gnomes walking around!
Very fun! i liked it
Neat concept! I like how you’ve mixed literal balancing gameplay with management. I could use a bit more feedback on what I’m doing, but otherwise, this is a solid entry!
There are some other "balancing on a scale" games, but this one stands out to me. I like being able to chose what to place. The placement is precise, and I like the blend of light city builder! I would have liked a little more feedback on current balance to min/max a bit more, otherwise great game had a lot of fun!
Love the game. Very fun and great take on the theme. Seeing my little city fall off was very funny
Adorable little game! Had a bug where the gnomes were getting stuck on one of the trash heaps but overall it was super cute!
I did forget which buildings were which sometimes. Would have been nice if i could hover over a building to see what it does again!
Yea we didn't have enough time to add that, we did add building descriptions to the itch page to compensate...
It’s a very interesting and creative idea, I think it’s not related enough to the theme BUT LOOK AT THE LIL GUYS.
I love how polished this is, you def didn’t bite more than you could chew so this turned out actually fun!, the actual physics are pretty fair and easy to deal with, not too challenging.
I love the music and the art, def the best part of the game.
Overall, nice entry!
I think both me and macro were very satisfied with the Lil Guys specifically yeah, haha.
We both essentially had the same idea for what they should look like :>
A silly little game full of silly little guys. Really impressive how polished and fun it is. My only minor complaint is that sometimes you can place building where they probably shouldn't be able to be placed(clipping inside of other buildings).
