Explosion!!! Who knew that our sewage workers risk their lives to explosions each time they rework our pipelines to ensure that water is delivered as expected. lol I like your twist on this formula making it stand out from others I have seen. I do feel that the time was extremely short and I only could for the first one...Maybe because I wanted to take more time to build something fun, maybe because it takes me a bit to see how the water will flow, IDK, just felt short.  I suppose I need to connect more pipes to get a bigger time bonus?

Developer

Thank you! You get a bigger time bonus if you connect more pipes, but I didn't have time to show it more clearly. I'm planning a small update to fix some bugs and difficulty.

What a fresh spin to a well-known game mechanic! (Pun very much intended)

Thank you!

A very nice game that’s well made! The music is enjoyable and the sound effects do add to the over all presentation! It would have been cool if there were some form of difficulty setting… like, easy could be a 5x5 grid, and very hard could be something like a 25x25 grid, but as it is, excellent work!

Developer

Thank you! More difficulty settings would be a great idea.

Overall, it's a well-rounded puzzle game. At first, I was simply trying to connect the pipes, but more and more I tried to pop more and more pipes at once. This game is addictive.

Concept is decent, this tends to be a more common concept. Every mechanic is solid and works well.(Not Buggy). Great little animated particles effects(simple but cohesive). Presentation is great, but little lacking in diversity. All around a wonderful project, Keep it up!

Awesome I love these games, they're very nostalgic for me. You made it perfectly as far as I can tell. Nice juice and polish.

Fun and polished game! The pressure constantly increased and I was kept at the edge of my seat trying to figure out the solution! Great job:)

I would appreciate it if you played my game an maybe left a rating :)

5380! Not a bad score imo! Fun game, great take on the theme - no idea how you worked out that there is always a solution, but its great to play! I noticed a bug where one of the corners was filled with water when not facing the way that it should have been - but it was the only one that i did see and apart from that it feels very polished. I might be tempted to tone down the screen shake a tad though, as it can become annoying when manically trying to beat the clock!

My jam goal was game feel and polish, so glad you enjoyed. Thanks for playing!

6890, that teleported me back to kongregate times :D.

Had fun playing the game and it's polished enough to have a good game feel, well done!

Submitted

This was quite fun. I had some minor hangups where the pipes wouldn't connect on rotation but otherwise this was a blast to play.

Developer

Right clicking to spin is a big buggy. I recommend only using left click in this version. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Very fun and simple puzzle game, remids me an old flash game (can't remember the name) I used to play as a kid. 

The game feels very polished, nice effects and transitions. Good job!

6950 Subtle screen shake makes it! 👍

Well done this is a really nicely polished entry, even down to the thumbnail and landing page! I found it quite interesting how you got more points for using more pipes, I'd had thought it would be the opposite heh! Great job.

Submitted

Its a nice polished version of pipe dream :)

Submitted

The game is really fun and the sfx and animations are pretty cool!

Submitted

Really enjoyed the game pacing and the polish. Especially the sfx choice, it's really satisfying to click the pipes. I had a similar idea but with a way more basic implementation, the gameplay loop in your game is really engaging

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

Fun gameplay & the presentation is very polished.

Well done  ! :)

Fun! Getting some NES Pipe Dream nostalgia
