Really nice game, was a bit confusing at the start since i didnt know what the pieces were. but very fun game

Submitted

Nice game, it felt like Bad Piggies but with an open world, but after unlocking the thrusters, the game got way too easy, I used thrusters only from when I unlocked it until the end, not needing anything else.

Submitted

Nice game! Really difficult though.. I couldn't even get past level 2.

Really original idea and nice artstyle, but it can get a bit difficult to control.

Submitted

The mechanic is well implemented and the ingame editor easy to control, but the third level already is very difficult. I could not figure out how to fly up there, my booster designs were just too unstable.

Submitted

It have very interesting mecanics, the second level is very dificult to me

Submitted

I love the mechanics. Couldn't even pass the second level but still enjoyed it!

Submitted

Really cool game. The art is really nice. Well done.

Submitted

Pretty interesting, but for some reason I can't find a way to climb the big slope on the second step. Is there a mechanic I'm missing ? It feels that there is no way to build enough speed...

Developer

I probably didn’t make it obvious enough, but by the second level you unlock a booster to use to make it up to the top.

omg this is so good why is it so deep in the list of games T_T

Developer

thank you so much!

Submitted

Bad piggies-like game is peak. Tricky but a nice puzzle to solve.

Developer

YES EXACTLY.  Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks so much.

Submitted

Tricky, but really fun! Art style is very polished and I really enjoyed getting to zone out and build. Good job!

Developer(+1)

I’m glad you enjoyed it! I have a big backlog of old art that I was happy to repurpose, and that really came in handy. Just wish I had more time polishing the level design.

Submitted

OK this is hard but massively cool ! We're litterally on discord watching one of our dev streaming his game. Amazing work

Developer

so glad you guys liked it! I got a little carried away with the levels and forgot about good difficulty progression, lol.

Omg this is amazing.

Played with friends, at first we tried completing the game “normally” by adapting the vehicle to the level but then we started seeing convergent evolution in our designs… Ended up comparing and testing our “crabs”, ONE vehicle that can complete the entire level :D

(this is mine, I call it Spiderman)
