The game fits perfectly with the theme, ahaha. It's a really fun game to play, but the visuals could be improved slightly.

I really like the concept of crafting something to balance, but I kinda felt like the mechanic was overshadowed by ability to spawn in a bunch of sticks to win... which is honestly kinda funny in its own way lol

Thanks Surfdaweb, the funny story with that is that originally I made it so sticks had no weight and were the only thing you could spawn, but then my kids wanted to just put sticks on it and did not understand how 20 sticks had no weight. Logically, they should weigh something, so I changed it. Later levels such a small weight means nothing so I thought it worked just fine.

I really liked this game. The crafting was fun as it was like a puzzle trying to figure out how to piece parts together to make the next thing. Having multiple ways to craft the same thing would be nice as the pieces need to be in the exact rotation for it to craft which can be confusing and I was unable to figure out many of the crafting recipes.

Umm, if you used unity, install WebGL build, and then build to webgl. Zip the folder up and export it. Yeahhh... So no one wants to download a file, even though your game looks so cool, because Its a lot of work and could contain malware. This is for next time. I think godot has similar steps. I feel you, made the same mistake on an earlier jam.

Oh, thank you. It looks like I have to unfortunately wait until after the rating period to switch it.
