Nice Game, I was able to complete a few levels. I don't know why, but to me it felt like it can be a mobile game, hope to see you improving this concept in the future. Great Job!

Thanks. Now that I have the systems in place I want to explore how to expand it. Crafting puzzles in a time crunch was too much.

Cute game I had fun playing around with it!

Pretty nice game. The controls for building could have been shift/space instead of z/x maybe? Also would be nice to have some sfx.

Developer

Thanks. That is great feedback. I want to expand on this concept and I will definitely try to finetune the controls and add SFX.

Very interesting concept for the game. I couldn't tell if X actually created a barrier or if it just raised the terrain but maybe that's the same thing. I wish there were a few more levels but I enjoyed the challenge of the third level and it was fun. I liked how the lava spread based on how deep tiles were

Developer(+1)

Yes, it controls a height map, so barrier/raised terrain, I wanted to finetune the mechanics but I ran out of time. Same with the levels. Once I had the lava flowing set I started creating levels but it was very tricky to get the timing right and I couldn’t include everything I wanted. I plan on submitting an extension of this game to the lospec jam. Wish me luck!
