Quite addicting! The way the towers stack is quite satisfying. I love the backgrounds and art too, nicely done!

Wow, I found this game quite addicting and amusing! I reached 28000 before my tower was unsustainable -- although I did take advantage of the camera movement "gluing" onscreen blocks to try and time a perfectly level floating drop just before the scroll.
I love the scrolling artwork and the little touch of the languages in the UI changing with the tower of babel theme. It really gave me "Jump King" vibes, always wanting to find out what was next. And having the "postgame" content was great (especially with the troll clouds...)
Thanks for the game (:
Feels like i'm playing one of those arcade stacker games - just sad i didnt win an mp3 player from 2008! I think it you played around with the cloud blocking your view idea, and added in other similar obstacles, it could be a fun challenging skill game.
Very neat. Thought the touch of breaking free of the simulation as you climb higher was fun. Nice work!
Oh no, is reality real? I am really bad at this game, but I made it... eventually. It is probably a bug, but I like how the tower segments permanently freeze during a transition even if they are floating (it made the game easier for me). Good game, well done! :)
My tower looks more like the Tower of Giza than the Tower of Babylon :D Great game, congrats!
Neat concept, I would like to see some more variety between each time the camera moved up. It seems like the blocks from the lower level are mostly ignored, its almost like you start over at each new level.
Quite simple but interesting game, reminds me of Tricky Towers
Sadly I got stuck twice because blocs started falling right before the screen moved to they got stuck diagonally and I couldn’t place anything on them
this is awesome. such a simple concept but very well executed to be fun and interesting, the great background progression compels you to keep playing and trying to progress despite strange block arrangements made for some rly fun emergent gameplay. Also love the cloud at the end really funny post game trick
Cool game, the mobile viewport isn't the bast (but that's cause i'm on a computer), had fun playing, but it didn'tseems to have losing system as at a moment i just started spamming, maybe i just had luck that's possible, overall good game !
This game reminds me a lot of a tower building block game from old nokia phones, good old times.
