Really good game, it also feels very polished and looks very good. It really enjoyed playing it. My only real issue was the length of the level / lack of checkpoints. You spend like 3 minutes getting through half the level and then you get to the purple switch gravity things. Since I didn't know what they did, I ended up dying and had to restart all the way from the beginning. I also think it would be interesting to see how the game worked if the AI also jumped automatically. Nice job on the game!

I am grateful for the feedback, I'll implement these suggestions in my other games.

Hey.

Quite a polished game and I felt like you were able to make good use of rather simple graphics. Well done.

Maybe you could consider using online free music next time? It's usually better than having no music whatsoever.

As other people have mentioned, you could have split the second level into two smaller levels or added a checkpoint mid-way the second level.

I wish you had explored more the mechanics you introduced.

It felt a bit weird not dying when there was a block right in the lava tiles and I walked on that block. Maybe you could have considered not letting the player spawn blocks on lava tiles?

Thank you for the feedback, I didn't know that bug existed. Also nice job for finishing the game!

I liked it and wanted to play to the end, but I got frustrated by the  jittery camera movement

Fun little game, I enjoyed the simplicity of it.

This game is pretty cool! The way it function opens it up to many different play styles! With how fast the AI moves I feel like adding some drag to the camera would be helpful so that it's not frustrating to place blocks; Otherwise, Great Game!

Always happy to help out another dev! :D

Really nice game, the ambiance is soothing, visuals are great, and the gameplay is rather smooth.

I found it hard sometimes to place blocks where I needed due to the camera/player moving a bit to fast. Maybe reduce the player movement speed a bit? The spike/anti grav section was the main offender ^^

And the last level was too long and could be split in two in my book.

Great submission overall, I liked it!

Developer

Thank you for the honest feedback, means a lot!

Love the concept & the execution!! The game looks great and definitely uses its simplicity to its advantage, and the sound and game feel are very well done. Good job!

Very fun and simple game! I have two main critiques about this game: 1) levels are too long / no checkpoints, and 2) a quick swipe of the mouse will not fill in a straight line and will have holes (which could be solved by using a line drawing algorithm to fill in the gaps).

Developer

Thanks for the suggestion.

Not a bad game, but doesn't really fit the theme since there isn't any AI at all. I would also recommend smoothing out the camera movement and maybe adding checkpoints. Fun game overall though!

Developer

Appreciate your feedback, but I tried to create the AI(blue circle) as simple as I could to have more time for polishing.

Really fun and creative game! Really cool concept and stunning visuals, good job!

Developer

Thank you for playing my game!
