Absolutely loved the aesthetic and the capitalism references throughout the UI!
I found the game a bit too easy. However, then I unbalanced the building on purpose to see what would happen, and spent the next minute or so trying and failing to dampen the oscillations until my building fell off the edge (perhaps that situation is also a capitalism metaphor).
By the way, the game doesn’t scale correctly on ultrawide. Some of the buttons and status UI elements are off-screen on a 21x9 monitor, but it looks great on 16x9 which is presumably the vast majority of folks’ setups.
Thank you for your kind words :)
The difficulty scaling is something that we’re lacking in, a few people pointed that out too.
Also appreciate the feedback regarding the graphics scaling, all of us were using 16x9 monitors and didn’t consider ultrawide. It’s something to note in the future for sure!
Perhaps a bit too easy, though it was a neat concept! Also, that pause button is in an unfortunate place, as it ends up in the way after a while. And I had some blocks spawn off the tower under it, but for some reason it didn't seem to affect the balance of the tower. Nice job all in all!
Thanks for playing! A couple other people pointed out the pause button problem too, thanks for letting us know!
First I really like that the title of the game has clearly been kept from the first idea ! The style is charming and really good (it would have been perfect to also have the box you control in the same style like in the tuto !) congrats !
Thank you for your kind words :)
Love the art style, and the reverse-tetris-esque gameplay is very fun! I'd love to see some more variety in the type to blocks that get added to the building to change up the gameplay a bit over time. But overall, great work!
Thank you for your kind words and feedback!
I liked balancing my tower, I did find that moving the very top flat often meant that I clicked the pause menu button accidentally, but was very fun and pretty game!
Thank you for trying our game!
Thanks for the feedback about the pause button location too :)
The art style is gorgeous, the music is nice, and overall a very polished game and fun experience. Probably the best game I've played so far (Although I've just played 4 games and still have plenty to play). Also, i did make it to your end-screen:D.
So at last, Steven got his pools, Andy share his room with the roommates, and Sarah lives happily with all of her children 😂
Thank you so much for your very kind words :’)
Thank you so much!!!! I’m so glad you enjoyed my visuals ( > O <)
This was great :) Really polished and very fun to play. I particularly enjoyed the prolonged feeling of doom as my tower tipped over, brilliant!
Thanks for playing :)
not only a nice game, but also a VERY charming polished aesthetic. Nice job :)
not only a nice game, but also a VERY charming polished aesthetic. Nice job :)
Thank you for the kind words!
I’m so happy about the response to the art, I’m glad people like it ;u;
Nice concept, love the art style
Thank you :)
:,) Thank you!!!
way too easy for first while of playing? cute art and style
Thanks for playing :) The difficulty scaling could be improved upon!
Pretty cool and fun concept executed really well! The art and music are nice too, I love the character design for the little robot dudes!
Thank you for the kind words :) Our talented artist churned out all the art on pen and paper after their stylus broke right before the jam started x_x
Aaaaaa thank you!! They’re the one asset that I revised multiple times to get them to look just right :)
I appreciate how the whole tower seemed to tilt together, making it much easier for me to adjust things and keep 9the tower going (tho maybe I just had really good balance? idk lol)
Thanks for playing :)
Cute and clever!
Thank you for playing!
art and gameplay is fun, i really like it :D
Thank you :D
Great art and vibes!
Thank you!
Really nice concept of trying to balance the tower! Kinda hard to keep yourself from overcompensating the movement but pretty fun
(also dont mark your builds for mac and linux if its not)
Thank you for playing our game!
(Thanks a lot for the note about the builds, we missed something during the build and upload process. Fixed it!)
