In what way does your game fit the theme?
The player must stack together with other boxes in order to reach higher platforms and avoid danger. Together, the player (a box) is stronger with other boxes
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code and made the assets myself, however I did take some inspiration from others for the artwork

Very cute little game. I couldn't get past the part with the moving platform because I kept clipping on the platform. I think in a game where movement is minimal, that kind of platforming doesn't really work.
Cool central mechanic with the throwing!
The game feels awesome, i like the art and the atmosphere in the game, the game would be much better if you put instructions at the start of the game.
overall nice game.
Launching yourself feels good in this. The weight of the little guy seems just right. I was a little confused with the targeting at first but it looks like the arrow flips depending on the last direction you were facing, once I figured that out I enjoyed it. The moving platforms added some good challenge, however I found getting on to them a little tricky, perhaps setting the physics to have less friction? Other than that it was some good level design and the main mechanic felt good to use. Goo job
Those levels are really nice. I especially like the double pink boxes as I hurled myself and missed but saved myself with the second one midair! Really nice game with a lot of effort that went into it!
I actually never thought of doing that myself mid development so good thing that works. Thank you for feedback and for playing the game!
I didn't think of that either, perhaps a good mechanic to add to this game
Awesome! Love the effects ! Fun game
The game is really good! I love it when people use lighting in games! This game is probably one of the best games I've played in this jam! My only gripe is that the characters move too slow, but that might be my ADHD speaking. Really good game tho!
Ah thank you for the feedback. The character speed is something I am planning to increase as others have commented on it too so don't worry about it. Again thank you for playing the game and for the feedback!
I loved it! It is one of the best ones I've seen so far, actually. I love your idea, and the execution is pretty good. I think that the movement is sometimes a little annoying - it's hard to actually predict the throw trajectory. The music is really nice. Pixel art textures are nice, but I think that the bricks are a little too high-res, and don't fit the environment that well.
Ah right thank you for the feedback. The art wasn't something I spent too much time on but next time I'll definitely may more attention too it so thank you! Thank you for playing the game and for the feedback!
Hello! I enjoyed your game a lot! It was the right mix of challenging and fun.
I hope you continue the game post-jam cause I would love to see some new levels :D
Also I would really appreciate it if you considered rating my game too! :)
Thank you for playing and glad to hear you enjoyed it. Yeah sure I'll check out your game!
The mechanic for your game is so cool! The levels are also very fun to play through, and I liked the art. Maybe one suggestion is give the box's jump a little more height. But overall, this is a very solid game, good job!
Yeah, I was worried of giving the box too much jump as it could remove the incentive to throw. But thank you for the feedback and for playing the game!
Very nice game and mechanics. Sometimes frustrating but still keeping me trying again :-) Definitelly would remove the E key pressing and kept just aiming with mouse all the time when they are 2+.
Thank you for the feedback. I was gonna make that the default but I thought it may get in the way. I'll think of adding that. Again thank you for the response and thanks for playing!
Super creative mechanics. I just hope that the character could move a little bit faster, it'll save more time completing the level. Other than that, great game and great concept, it fits the theme kinda moderately for me.
Thank you for playing and the feedback!
Great visuals and sound. I actually like that there are no mid-air controls, makes it more challenging imo

Thank you for the feedback. Mid-air controls is definitely something I was considering but I'll see. Maybe in a future update? Thanks for playing!
i like a graphic part the most, i think you need to work more on controls stuff .. but overall i love this
Ahh ok. Yeah there is a few tweaks that I wanted to make but didn't get the time. Thank you for playing!
Fun game, looks amazing.
Thank you for playing. Hope you enjoyed!
I like your Game :D I had some issues playing (zooming out) but it looks and sounds fantastic
Ahh thank you. I'll look into that. Thanks for playing and hope you enjoyed!
Super fun game! I would play this if it was like a full game!
Ahh thank you for the comments and for playing. Glad you enjoyed!
Great concept, little annoying that you cannot steer in the air though but still a very good game

Yeah that was something I knew I needed to add but didn't have the time. Hope you enjoyed and thank you for playing!
Nice concept, good job.
Thank you! Hope you enjoyed the game!
