Great concept.

Very cool combination of mechanics

Submitted

Not a bad game. fun music

Submitted

Not bad! The ability the move objects around makes this entry a pretty unique concept and expansive once flesh out more! The pacing can be improved and maybe quicker but overall pretty fun game!

Submitted

Being able to move obstacles was interesting and I liked the variety.

For me, even the fact that you haven't created a game where you control a submarine to explore the depths of the sea is a victory. It's charming, simple, and it's evident that you've put a lot of work into the concept Very goofy and fun.

Thank you for the kind words

Fun concept, and good gameplay, but I feel like slightly adjusting the pacing would greatly enhance the experience. For example, the speed of the blocks could increase as time goes on, or the playable area could be higher and the blocks could accelerate as they get closer.

I made a brief demo of what I mean: https://lowqualityrobin.itch.io/dodgeblock

Overall, it's a very fun game, with great art direction, but the blocks and pacing just needs a bit of polish.

ok Im going to need to find my windows computer to run this my mac is to old but yes I see what your trying to say and I would agree with this to but I found for my game were you are managing space speeding up the blocks would make it esier as the blocks would have less of a chance to get cluttered and stuck. I kind of wanted this game to be more of a puzzle game to an extent so instead I had sir steel increase his placing rate I should defininely made him place a lot slower initially and speed it up more drastically so the change is evident. But thank you so much I cant believe you made a demo for me to test on the issue I will surely check it out and tell you what I think.   Honestly I probobaly should have implemented this as to have the game reach a greater group of people and increasing fall speed while increasing the placement speed faster would be a much better and more noticeable way to implement progressive difficulty

Fun goofy game, looks and sounds good. I just feel like moving stuff is too slow, but I like this


I wonder what kind of a beef these 2 guys had

Developer (1 edit)

It might be the fact that magnet man magnetized the VS sign in the title scene sir steel was not happy about that. (You can tell its magnetized becuase its yellow) about everything moving slow that was a decision I decided to make as to not make the game to easy sure one would be more reactive but would be harder to balance for.

Great work! I enjoy this game 

Developer

thanks

Submitted

This game is really fun, and the audio is really good too, but I wish there was a restart button on the loss screen.

Developer

Yeah sorry about that I should have thought to impliment that my bad

Submitted

Ok this game Was Nice. But One Thing ,when ever Clicked On a Obstacle it changes color but nothing happens after that. I was really expecting some ability of magnet man to pull or push things. Or may be I missed something . although the art was great. and the music was really good. .

Developer

It follows your mouse you click and hold and then move your mouse and it follows Sorry if that wasn't made clear

Submitted

Wow, now this game feels really so much fun. Yup I missed That part. I think. If there was a controls section or a guide something like that will really help users like me . I directly Jumped to the Run game button 😂

Developer

yeah I guess I should have made it more clear

Submitted

the movement could be better but the game was quite fun in my opinion just from the first time I played. it would be cool if you added some more animations though!

Developer

Yeah I was thinking about that but the main mechanic proved to be pretty difficult and required a lot of work. This is the first game I have ever drawn by myself and I wish I could have animated but I am not good enough at art to even start

Submitted

Pretty challenging game but very cool sound effects and very fun!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback

Submitted

A bit hard or mabye im just bad but great game simple fun and creative Overall great job!

Developer

thanks for the feedback the game itself has a few difficulty modes if your willing to try those out they werent significantly different from each other.

Submitted

even on easy im still bad 😅

Developer

Yeah thats probobally my fault then sorry about that
