Very well executed concept! More mechanics would have been nice but what you had was very solid. Nice work!
Thank you! With all I learned these days I'll focus on adding more game juice to my next games
Solid puzzler with cute graphics and a good basic idea with potential for turning into a full game, good job! Would have liked more sound and I really wanted more levels... so I guess that's a good sign for the game.
Would have liked to add more sounds, animations on docking... Definitely more game juice, but didn't have enough time. Glad you liked!
Very fun, simple, elegant design. I really enjoyed solving all those puzzles. Didn't strongly nail the theme, but a good game for sure. Nice work.
Tried to make a game about scaling up in size, but I failed to calculate positions, calculations etc. Then, I checked the definition of scaling up and included increase in numbers, so I went that way
Interesting! Simple but effective, and cute!
I would love to know the least amount of moves to solve the levels.
Thank you! To design the levels I placed random blocks and goals, and then started to move them, add walls, etc. So I have no clue about the least amount of moves haha. Btw your game looks amazing.
I love that method! And thank you!
This game was fun! I kind of wished there were more levels, it had been such a nice challenge
Thank you for the feedback!! I didn't have enough time to add more. But I though people may want to try this game, play 2-3 levels and then go to the next Jam entry. I had to discard ideas and got somenew ones that would add new mechanics, gameplay and game juice. Depending on the final feedback and ranking, I might dicide to turn this into a full game.
really wish there were more level i wanted to play more
I'm glad you liked it. Didn't have enough time to develop more levels, but I also thought that people might try this game, play a few levels and then go to the next Jam entry. After all the feeding, I'm considering turning this into a full game with more mechanics!
This game has so much potential to be successful if it expands more, is creative and fun to play, great job!
Thank you for the feedback, I'll have that in mind! For now, I want to participate in more Jams to keep learning new things. I'll consider coming back to this project and improve it.
This is the best way to learn to improve on making games, by participating in jams and different projects, great job and good luck in the future
For now I'll join Scream Secrets, which start tomorrow, and then Brackeys 2024.2
Wow, good luck, I'll join Brackeys game jam as well!
A great little block pusher.
Nice job!
Thank you fellow block game maker!
i wish there was more levels because this game is very good. simple and fun concept. some music would be good too
I thought about adding music, but I had to make this game alone and decided to make all assets by myself, except the audio. I thought that free, generic music would be too goofy. Maybe I should join a team or go with a music composer next time.
Nice one, simple idea, it has a lot of potential for future levels I believe.
Would have liked to add more mechanics and levels, nut since this is a short time Jam, I sticked to the basics. Haven't considered developing a full game yet, but who knows!
Very cute and fun! I love the satisfying click as they connect and the puzzles were well made.
Wanted to add some game juice in this game and spent a lot of time finding sounds and testing stuff, glad it worked! I thought the puzzles were rushed haha, had to create them all on the last day.
Pretty cool and creative game. It got potential for further development.
Thank you! Had other mechanics in mind, like starting with other blocks already and have to detatch them somehow, but didn't have enough time. Appreciate the feedback!
Pretty cool! "detach" would create a whole new dimension, looking forward to your future upgrade.
Simple, yet effective. It's nice to see another block enjoyer :D
Yep!! But block games are harder to code than it looks haha
Amazing polish, very funny. A nice thought on the theme.
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback
Great concept! It's definitely an idea to keep—it's working really well!
Thank you! your entry looks super polished
Nice puzzle game! It reminds me of the game "Sleepy Blocks" from the GMTK jam 2021. But I like how you need to match the colors to solve the puzzles. It probably adds even more potential to the idea :)
Thank you! Yes, I took inspiration from that game and the other ones regarding blocks from gmtk 2021. This is my 3rd attemp of a game in this Jam, so I only had 2 days to develop it. I failed games 1 and 2 since scaling items in size ended up being a mess and had to discard those ideas. Would have loved to implement cells that detach blocks and stuff like that, but wish I started this game since day 1.
Simple and good. And the puzzles are exactly perfect: you thoughtlessly stick one guy to yourself, only to later realize that was a trap. Awesome. It's really short, unfortunately
Glad you enjoyed. Had to create all levels in a short amount of time unfortunately, and I wanted to add more mechanics too.
Very enjoyable game, well done !
Thank you! Yours looks cool too, nice theme implementation
Needs more lvls!! I was enjoying it a lot! Great game!
Would have liked to add more levels and mechanics, but spend yesterday creating the core mechanics and I had to make all levels, transitions and fixing stuff today. Thanks for playing!
Very intuitive gameplay. Liked it!
Thank you!
