One of the more creative ideas in this jam and so addictive. I wonder if reaching the top of the screen is possible. Definitely turn this into an actual mobile game after the jam.

Clever concept, well done!

I suppose its interesting. There didn't seem to be any real tangible goal though.

Really satisfying to play! 10/10 would not wanna live there

It's really satisfying.

And the sound effect is great.

Cool work for a single person. It lacks help perhaps, to get the idea that similar-color blocks give bonuses. But, that also could be a feature:)

Personal highscore is 3350

Loved the crunchy sounds and the effects! Adding the different colors for the blocks was a great visual aid. It's very satisfying to play!

Super fun! There's little bits of polish here that go so far. The hesitation before the drop to give a sense of weight, the way the combo sound goes up in pitch as your combo improves, the little wiggle in the scales before they find their new resting point. The work did not go unnoticed and it really gave the game that omph that makes it so fun to play

Good, well thought out game! It wasn't super challenging, but the concept was cool and the sounds were nice and satisfying~!

Submitted(+1)

Wow! This game is very polished! It is enjoyable, the sound and visual effects are tidy and overall the game presents an interesting challenge. Great job.

this feels so satisfying to play, the sounds, the way everything looks, the 'weight' of the buildings... everything just feels right (◍•ᴗ•◍)

Submitted(+1)

This is fantastic. I really loved playing this. Would love to see what additional levels would be like. Keep up the great work!

I like this idea and your present, the scals's shaking makes it feel heavier. nice job :D!

Submitted(+1)

Really cool ! I got to 3500 eventually

Developer

Awesome, congrats :)

Got a score of 1930 on my first attempt. It's a great idea for the theme, really requires some planning ahead!

Developer

That is not too bad, good job! :)

Submitted(+1)

I am pro at this game😎. it's fun enough, but it's monotonous, although maybe I'm missing something. Anyway, it's a great game

Submitted(+1)

Just realized now that I should have done combinations of the same colors, lol

Developer

Not bad, but if you focus on combining colors, you can get a lot higher ;) good luck!
