I like the concept, but it was very hard to understand what I was doing or why. I think some clearer tutorializing near the start of the game would go a long way towards improving the experience.

So, a lot of games have both the "scale high" theme and the "literal scale" theme interpretations, but the blending of the two here is really clever!

Interesting and creative take on the theme! The text is far too small and hard to read. The game has a lot of room to expand! :D

Submitted

Cool scale game!

Neat idea of a city builder. I felt it could have been clearer what card could go onto which plate. Maybe the camera could have zoomed onto the plate when you selected a card or something like that? That could have helped with the camera movement too.  It was a bit overwhelming at first glance , but it was fun :)

Very nice take on the theme! I struggled to actually build anything but I enjoy the concept of balancing building blocks. Would love to see this further developed

Submitted

A neat idea, I liked building the cities, however I didn't really understand what I was doing most of the time lol. I think the card descriptions could be shorter and simpler.

Unfortunately, it didn't load for me :( I would have loved to try it out. Please upload an exec after the Jam is finished.

That's a bummer! Maybe try another browser? But we will defenitely add a download option after the rating phase. :)

A rather original concept! I think it makes good use of several interpretations of the theme. It was just a little hard to read the cards :)

Thanks, really appreciate it :D
Yea the text should be bigger ^^'

How does your game fit the theme?

You build and build on a scale.
Furthermore, you build to gain level and thus bigger blocks


PS: I was to stupid to read xD
