nice job! great job incorporating a story into the gameplay and art direction and music was nice. at first i was confused about how the scoring system worked but it's interesting that the log drop is on command or at the end of your 4 moves so you can really plan ahead instead of working on a timer as i thought at first.
Thanks for the feedback! I agree, I think that the UI might need to be a bit clearer as its not super-obvious... I might also add a timer mode as a separate option in the future, but unsure as I wanted the game to just be a chilled experience...
Really nice game, made me think of Tetris quite a bit in a good way. I thought it might have been to easy until lines started dropping every turn, which made me have to think more before making a move. Loved the literal title and when the animals started running! Nice work!
Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it!
Such a cozy game, animals running are hilarous ^^
Some variation in level design will add cool difficulty
Good job tho !
Thanks very much! I have a few ideas on how to extend the game, including some variations on the river itself, so might end up doing a post-jam update :)
very impressive. very original. and easy to pickup and play. the pixel art is also very cute
my only suggestion is that maybe a timer can make the game more intense. but overall it's perfect minigame
Thanks for the feedback - I was aiming to create something chilled an unpressured, but I think that if I do a post game-jam update then I will look at adding a timer mode to give players the option ;)
A simple yet fun puzzle game! It was very relaxing to play. That said, it would be cool with different game modes with varying difficulty levels!
Totally agree - I think that if I extend it I might think up some additional modes for the player to tackle... I also need to address the difficulty curve as its too easy in early levels and then quickly becomes impossible!
Nice game.
It is worth making a new fall after moving one or more "watercraft".
Good luck. I liked. But add a challenge.
Thanks for playing! The game gets more difficult as the levels increase - if you want a challenge then see if you can get to level 7! 😉
A nice little quaint game. Very chill and relaxing to play. Well done!
Thanks!
I found the core loop pretty relaxing and enjoyable, reminiscent of Tetris. The stampede looks hilarious.
Thanks! Yeah I was quite pleased with the stampede effect! I think it ties the whole concept together :)
Had a lot of fun playing this game. I lost track of time and just got immersed on completing the rows. Really fun game!
Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it!
The graphics and sounds are really cute. I enjoyed playing this! I do find that it is a bit too easy and the difficulty ramps up too slowly.
Thanks for the feedback - yeah it seems that a few people have mentioned the difficulty curve... I think that I need to start people on the equivalent of level 3 but tweak the number of blocks that fall per drop - and then I can adjust that as it gets harder...
This is a really cute and fun great and really well done and polished for a game jam . the use of music aswell made for a nice experience and atmosphere. very well done this game deserves to do well
Thanks very much! :)
This is a really cool twist on the concept, everything is really clean from the art and sound effects to the core mechanic!
Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it!
really cute and nice game! i love the artstyle, good job!
Thanks for playing it!
Such a nice game! I really enjoyed the feel of this game, no timers, no stress.... The complete opposite of the games I make. :) Anyway, this is absolutely one of my favourites! Well done!
Wow! Thanks very much! I am considering adding a timed mode into the post-jam update (if i do one!), which would be a new game selection... there are some people who like the additional pressure :D
I like this take on the tetris formula, very relaxing and the difficulty goes up nicely as you get better at the game. Really nice game!
Thanks very much for the feedback!
Great art style! I found the game super relaxing and the controls made it pleasant to play. Maybe offer a real time mode for more of a challenge?
I like that idea... maybe use a timer between drops instead of a move counter... could be a nice new game mode! Thanks!
It's cute how all the animals run so fast in a line haha. I didn't find the game to be challenging, but I see more of a relaxing time killer.
It gets a LOT harder around level 5 onwards. No-one has gotten higher than level 6 at this point! Its certainly relaxing at low levels, and that was intentional, but I think that I need to adjust the difficulty curve to keep people interested... Thanks for playing!
Very cute Tetris like game.
Thank you!
Wow great game! Kind of feels like a new age, more involved and heart-felt Tetris! I haven't seen anything else like it so I really enjoyed it. Felt very different to other games I have played so far in this game jam and I'm up to about 30 games played :D Awesome work!
Thanks very much! I wanted to go for something maybe a little more abstract than other games in the jam (though I still need to actually check out the other entries) which was a challenge, but I think it turned out OK!
Yeah great job 😄. You can start with my game if you like haha please rate and review when you get a chance <3
Solid game with a nice theme and relaxing music. I think different shaped pieces or ramped up speed after a few minutes would help to keep the momentum as the player learns the mechanics after a few rounds. A nice cohesive effort!
Thanks very much! Yeah I need to work on the difficulty curve a bit - someone else also suggested differently shaped pieces, so I might see if I can extend the game to include those (at some point).
