Loved the music increasing in intensity. Managed to get five levels, though it collapsed after maybe ten seconds :P

If there was some way to rotate the camera that would make placing the glasses much easier, once you get off of the table it becomes difficult to see where you're actually placing them.

On my windows 11 machine, I have a weird graphic bug, so I cannot see anything. And on Mac, WebGL will crash when I try to run the game.

Could you maybe offer some Win Build or MacOS Build, so I could try it outside of my browser?

Sure, just uploaded downloadables for all platforms :)

Haha very fun to play though.. "Your pyramid WAS wonderful" -- made me laugh! :) I think this still counts as completing the game...

Nailed the theme, and very fun, well done! 👍

played on firefox on linux and it played smoothly, except sometimes the audio lagged when placing a glass (but the audio is often an issue with html5, on linux at least).


it was hard to play, but really fun! well put together, a very original angle on the theme!

I use firefox too and honestly, it runs much smoother on (Manjaro) linux to me than on Windows (same machine, dual-boot).

So I played on Mac and first tried through Firefox. Even on full screen. Once the page loaded I could hear things and could tell that things were reacting but couldn't see anything. Then my computer froze up. Then I tried on Chrome and then the load went a little better, but it crashed when I tried to play. It looks like it was probably neat, but likely has some errors with its conversion to WebGL on itch.

It is really in the theme! I found it fun. A little bit difficult to place the wine glasses but I enjoyed it. I got 3 levels only.

Solid game, although I definitely didn't have the patience to stack them 5 high, but I got to 4 levels. The music effect was cool as well.

I had serious trouble seeing anything in this game. Did you by chance leave it on GLES3 when uploading the HTML version? GLES2 is generally a lot better for HTML, as it has a lot lower requirements and renders more clearly. I also wasn't able to make it full screen, and while my mouse didn't move or anything weird like that, I mostly couldn't see anything happening. I'd like to, though - seems like a really interesting concept, and I love the music you picked!

Thank you for response!

Yeah, I decided to leave it on GLES3. When I converted it to GLES2 it just completely changed the look of the game (glasses, lightning...) and I didn't like how it looked like. This was my first 3D project so I am still absorbing the theory of materials and stuff like this and didn't have time to mess with it again. I already spent a lot of time with it in GLES3 and setting it again to look how I want in GLES2 didn't sound like a good idea form me :D. I tested it in browser in GLES3 and it worked so I just left it this way. Maybe it wasn't the smartest idea though.

Ohh interesting, okay, got it. It's really weird, because my computer is an absolute beast but it was basically all static for me. I'm curious to know what your machine has that mine doesn't! :P
