A very nice game! The sound effects are nice and the gameplay is very relaxing. I do wish the pieces could be mirrored, although I know that's not typical, but there were just so many times where I could've placed something if it could be flipped haha. Overall a very good game. Well done!

Very interesting take on tetris.
Impressive submission for sure, good job.
"Sire! The peasants. They- They're revolting again" "***Sigh*** very well what are their demands?" "Well about that sir... they say they really enjoy the zoo and would much like it expanded" "What!? but the zoo already owns a quarter of the city! Where would we even put it? We need stores. We need houses!" "I tried explaining this but they won't take no for an answer" "This town's ruined, ruined I tell you!"
Lol awesome game 10/10 needs more zoos
I love city builders without overwhelming amount of mechanics and this game is exactly what is needed! I see huge potential in this game, especially if you improve visuals. I would love to see more detailed tiles + some action on them (like pedestrians and cars). Besides that skip level button would be great addition as in the beginning I was getting required score way faster than place on the map was ending. Anyways, great work, would love to see updates! :)
Nice game! It's a good balance of chance and strategy, especially with the ability to assign different tiles. Nice art too!
Very very nice game! I would love to have more interactive tiles (if a Park is overlapping a building and a lake?! extrapoints or something) but it worked realy well. But dude: Write the controls very visible under your game. PRESS R TO ROTATE should be the first thing one reads in caps on your page. The rest is self explaining. Otherwise: No bugs encountered. length of the rounds perfect!
I absolutely love this one! I would describe it as a mix between SimCity and Tetris, in the best way possible. Hats off to the devs; I played the whole thing, and so far it's the best game I've encountered in the jam. The UI is honestly fine --- things don't need to be that polished in a game jam. Basically my only problem was how it's not very easy to swap things between slots, which becomes a problem when some slots are more likely than others, but that's very minor. Great job!
Another play-on-words! I had a lot of fun with this one, there is a decent amount of content for a weekend jam, the strategy is interesting, the game design and progression are also great. I only found it difficult to see how many tiles the square shapes take, for example I thought the first green tile was 1x1 and found out the hard way :)
I like this! I really love hand-made art and I would like to make a game in the same style soon or later! I also enjoy the fact that you obtain new tiles when progressing to new levels, it makes everything more interesting. This game reminded me of a small game called Dorfromantik, do you know it?
City planner gang 💪
Really digging the toony style and the mechanics, I certainly see myself playing days long if there’s a save game system in the making ;)
Nice game!! A city builder is an interesting way to use dice
Could use some music and some more effects/feedback
nice job
Had fun with this one. Didn't find any bugs. Only thing I can say is add a bit of relaxing music to help out the ambience a bit.
Great entry!
The best game I've played in this jam, fun gameplay, good visuals. Truly outstanding. Finding oneself trying to fit in the houses as good as possible while also maximizing points is really fun. It's use of the theme is also excellent from a gameplay perspective. Having some spots be more common than others adds a whole new layer of strategy you have to think about. Great job!
