A solid gem-stacking puzzle game. There was more leeway than I expected... I guess the gems just have to stop moving temporarily to count as being attached.

The visuals and audio are nice. I love the wobbling when you move around - helps keep the game feeling tense, even if the gems are stuck on your board in actuality.

What does this have to do with the jam theme?

Submitted

Interesting game but I'm missing the theme

Submitted

Simple concept, excellent execution, especially for a game jam. I think this game could easily turned into a fun little mobile game. The pixel art was beautiful, and I really enjoyed the wobbly physics of the gem tower!

Submitted

Very nice concept, i like it! Congrats!

Oh hell yeah, I loveeee the design of the gems.  The sound effects were really well done, I could listen to it all day! One thing that freaked me out a little was when I died, a .png was saved to my file automatically. I'd give people a heads up about saving files to your computer as it can be a bit dodgy! 

Also, I do miss some bugs! Other than that, great job!

beautiful game. I was thinking perhaps moving off screen should not be possible it makes the gameplay a bit weird

Submitted

Such a relaxing game… beautiful!

Submitted

Good game, really like how the physics works, the graphics and the sound.

Nailed the art side of things, aesthetics are great. I think the gameplay concept is OK but like a below poster said I found it too easy after a while - I think the screen needs to be widened up a bit, and maybe something needs to be done to keep the paddle/tower from being so wide it becomes too easy.

Submitted

Fantastic look and sound. Needs more bugs though

Submitted

Interesting game. Visually and sound wise very appealing. The one issue I could find is that once you figure out the strategy you can just keep the tower going until you get bored. I grew it to about 380 and then left it going by itself and it got to 444 and then crashed.

fun game with good art, great job

Submitted

What a stunning game! I played it a few times but couldn't reach the top :D! Nice work!

Submitted

Interesting game and indeed a beautiful art style ;)

Submitted

Very fun and addictive game, not quite sure what it has in common with bugs, lovely music and well made graphics.

Submitted

That's some very fine pixel art 👍

Submitted

I love the art style y'all chose. The gems are bright and shiny. The music matches the atmosphere.  Very nice twist on the block stacking genre using oddly shaped gems!

Submitted

Very addictive gameplay=) There is one hack: when gem has landed on the board but hasn't stack yet, you can just hold left of right button and it will never fall.
