Like how you can work together with another player to help stack blocks! Really fun!

Cool game! It was quite confusing at first and lacked some audio but overall fun game!

Developer

Thank You.

Its too tense for me, but its quite fun :)

I think a tutorial at the beginning is a nice addition, as others have pointed out, also may I suggest a more distinguished button for the 1:1 square shape and the rectangle shape one.

Good job mate!

Developer

Thank you for playing! Yep definitely need that tutorial, and yeah I it is an error that the rectangle looks like a square.

Nice Game :)

It was fun and I liked the simplistic graphics.

Developer

thank you

I was a little confused as to what to do to begin to be honest, but it was actually surprisingly fun trying to get it up high with such a short time limit for each move

Developer

Thank you for playing. Definitely need to add tutorial at start.

Cool concept! It's lacking a bit of polish, but other people have already said everything I thought of. Good work!

Developer

thank you for playing!

Maybe it needs how to play scene and music. But overall Nice work! Good Job!

Developer

thank you, definitely need to work in both of them.

Thank you so much for the feedback. Definitely need to add a tutorial and a clearer indicator for whose turn it is.  The camera is meant to follow the tower, but turns out I never selected the camera and I never built high enough to realise. Thank you for finding the bug.

Nice game! Very cool concept and reminded me a lot a reverse sort-of Jenna. It was fun and I liked the simplistic graphics!

Developer

Thank you so much!

As people have said earlier, It's a bit confusing at first, a proper tutorial would definitely help (Unfortunately my game suffers from the same problem so I feel ya there ). Despite the challenge, I really enjoyed playing (alone)! Keep it up! 

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback. I am definitely going to find a the best way to get a tutorial in there.   I Have also realised the mistake of making a local multiplayer game in the current climate. Oh well all learning, thank you for the kind messages. Already played your game. amazing

  • Typo: “Player Again” => “Play Again”

  • I was a bit confused at first. Maybe a basic text tutorial or image showing how it works?

  • It’s not clear that you have to place the blocks from a certain distance above the ground

  • I got a score of 270 before my building collapsed

  • Some audio would be nice

Developer

All brilliant replies thank you.  Big Credit for being the first person to spot the Typo. And I have seen that screen hundred times 😂

Nice concept and nicely done graphics. 

It is a bit confusing first how to play.

Perhaps add a randomizer to the blocks each player can place and increase the timer a bit.

Developer

thank you for playing.  Good suggestions will certainly add them to the list.

good concept. played alone. could be hard to swap mouse controls to my potential second player in the time frame. but i see what you got going here. cool

Developer(+1)

thank you for the feedback. 

Submitted(+1)

Cool concept. A bit hard (played alone), and a timer feels a little frustrating! Could be some game mode with different times. 

Developer

Thank you for playing. I like the idea of different game modes maybe even single player. Just didnt suit this jam. 

Submitted(+1)

You have a very cool game! But i didn't very understood in the beginning, keep going !

Also, don't forget to play and rate my game!

Developer

Thank you for checking it out. Will try yours now.

Submitted(+1)

Seems fun! I don't have someone to play with, but I like the concept of two players working together towards a goal / high score instead of going against each other.

Developer

Thank you for such kind words.

Submitted(+1)

It is a fun game.I think you should give more time to player bcoz 5 secs is so less time to move mouse frequently otherwise good game.keep going :) 

Developer

Thank You for playing, and the great feedback!

Submitted(+1)

Not sure how it fit the theme of stronger together, maybe you trying to say two people is better then one. The theme is better if it is obvious. I liked the art and the ui, is nice and simple. 

Developer

Thank you for the response. Yes I was trying to go down the route of a structure being physically stronger when working together. Definitely could have fitted better. 

Submitted(+1)

Very fast paced! It made it hard and challenging but it was super fun. The art seemed cute and cartoony. Here are a few things I would do to improve the game

-Some keybinds would be cool, just moving your mouse normally took about a second for me

-A better indicator to tell you which player is going would be nice, with the 5 seconds, it's very risky to check which player is placing down blocks

-Some SFX and background music would be nice here, I couldn't hear any while I was playing

-I think the UI buttons can be a little more satisfying to use, some hover and clicking animations could help with that

Overall, I think this game is pretty good. Even without SFX, it was fun because it was really intense. My personal best is 410 :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for such a detailed response.  Completely agree with them and yes, unfortunately I did leave it late for sound. Thank you again. Also Great Score! I struggle to pass 200.

idea and art are simple!
Good job!

Developer

Thank You
