Nicely done! I like the fact that a dog can show up on Skale's back randomly!

Developer

Thank you! Skale is very glad that so many people like Jenny as much as they do ❤️

Great idea and nice execution. I kept underestimating how violently the rock block would fling my planks, so I didn't do a great job getting Skale very wealthy...

Developer

Thank you for your reply! Yes, to be honest Skale got a new stone provider right before the jam starting, and we didn't notice their mischief. After the jam however, we'll sit down and have a talk with them about it!

I love that the dragon name is Skale. I feel so bad for burning by mistake the treasure with sentimental value u.u

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad Skale showed you one of their most prized possessions, they don't do that for everyone. But be a bit more careful with them the next time, please 🥺

I like the idea and the implementation of the mechanics! very simple but very effective :D love the art as well

Developer

Thank you!  Sometimes, less is more. Skale, on the other hand, doesn't seem to agree...

I just feel bad for wasting so much of that dragons hard work, lovely art.

Would be very grateful if you tried our game!

Developer

Thank you for your review! Don't worry, Skale is just a big cry baby, but they can get their lost riches back in no time 💪

Interesting mechanics and concept. I dropped too many things in the lava though)

Developer

Thank you! If only our dragon's lair choosing ability would match their greed...

Fantastic! This is one of those games, where you might not know what you're doing at first. But then you have a moment where it all clicks into place, and it's super fun from then on!

Developer

Thank you! Skale believes in everyone, they know their riches are in good hands (...eventually)

5/5 best game I've seen so far. Super fun, good idea, fits the theme in two ways (I see what you did with scales there) and looks SO GOOD! How did you make the gold lighting effect? (were the light on them always points in one direction)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your feedback! Actually, Skale gets their loot from our lead designer's place, who cast a spell on every coin so that their appearance changes depending how they are oriented ✨

Such a charming art style, a unique concept, and fun gameplay!?  And on top of that you've got a full fledged tutorial!  Absolutely amazing - glad I found this gem :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your feedback! Skale is the happiest that you can help them after they got scammed on the real estate market...

This is a really impressive game to have been made in only 96 hours! The tutorial is a great touch and makes your game really accessible. The assets are beautiful -- love the dragon and the shiny gems! Having both game mode options is really nice -- chaotic was super fun, but tactical helped me learn how to play the game more easily. Great job!!

Developer

Thank you for your kind feedback! Our lead artist is proud of their work - polishing every single gem that Skale brings took a lot of time 💎

Really Fun! love the dragon!

Developer

Thank you! Because of fans like you, Skale can get more riches easily 🪙

 Cool game, cute dragon.

Developer

Thank you!

Loved this game. Skale is very cute and I liked home sometimes we would come home with a dog riding his back. The art style and music were great and I liked being about to use Skale's gold and diamonds to purchase planks. I managed to get a high score of 62 :)

Developer

Thank you for your reply! Glad that you liked Jenny, she is a very important dog for Skale ❤️

Cool idea, but it seems that the collisions between the planks i place and the loot dropped by Skale does not work (on firefox)?
Also, it would be more interesting if the lava was going up and Skale didn't always place the loot in the middle ;)

Developer

Thank you for your review! Actually Skale starts to become a bit lazier over time, and won't care about dropping the bag necessarily in the center 😅
