The sound. The grapics. I love this one.
This took me all the way back to my childhood! The Word Art was a lovely touch! Nice Work!
hilarious art direction, kinda makes the whole experience feel like a windows based fever dream. it transitions from calming to overwhelming pretty quickly as you scramble around for the right guy to move each piece. pretty fun, but clearly not meant to be a long experience as it grows fairly repetitive. worth a play even if only for the vibes
Cool idea. It would be nice to have some other objectives as well so that it is not repetitive.
I absolutely love the artistic and music style, frantically looking for the right person to direct the blocks is really funny. I enjoyed it more than I should have. Well done!
took me a little while to get the hang of it, but i love the style and concept!
Took me a while to figure out the controls. Then again i didnt ready any describtion xD
cool, but didn't understand the language part?
It's a bug, the language in the speechbubbles is supposed to change
Fun game, but very easy until it reaches the top of the screen, then it becomes unplayable.
Unclear how the changing languages come into play

The words in the speechbubles are supposed to start to change after the player has placed a few blocks. Unfortunately it's bugged so the language doesn't change at all.
THIS IS THE SINGLE BEST VIDEO GAME I HAVE PLAYED IN 50 YEARS, MY NAME IS TODD HOWARD AND I APPROVE THIS MESSAGE, THIS GAME IS BETTER THEN ALL OF THE NEW AAA GAMES AND HOLOW NIGHT IS SO BAD IN COMPARISON BECAUSE THIS GAME IS JUST SO GOOD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great idea! It made me laugh chuckle a few times. Cool idea for the moving to be a clickable component around the level. Good job!
Super lovely art style, but admittedly the gameplay grows stale quite quickly.
I adore clip-art style art so the aesthetics of this game are amazing. Gameplay was a little simple, I actually didn't dislike the weird movement mechanics as much as you would think? They actually work out fairly well, i found i could mostly keep track of who would move the blocks in any direction, and it makes sense given the theme. I would've liked more precision to be able to line stuff up, it felt like everything moved something like "one and a half" blocks. I did get bored before any language swapping stuff happened, but the idea here is super neat.
Thank you for your feedback! The language swapping is actually supposed to happen after a few blocks already but it is unfortunately bugged.
This is a really charming game! Thanks for submitting and it's crazy that you made this awesome game in only 48 hours~!
This is hilarious man, are thouse sounds from the Schalke guy video?? Really like the aesthetic and the mildly infuriating gameplay ^^
Yes, that's the Schalke guy hahaha well spotted!! And thank you!
Oh well what a legendary guy
Love the visuals! And clicking the people on the ground to move the blocks was both funny and challenging ✨
I liked the concept! The variation in the tower sprites is cool. Maybe some different sprites for the people would be nice. If they started giving you cryptic hints it would make the game more challenging and really sell that this is the Tower of Babel. Had fun playing this! :D
