Great job!
Thanks alot 🤩
This game was very nostalgic; reminds me of some of the old flash and phone games I played where you have to balance a tower that goes up forever. Good stuff
Thanks alot for trying the game! 🤗 That's exactly what I had in mind developing this actually! I used to play this old tower builder game that went on forever aswell. I wanted to evolve that playstyle into something more arcade-like, with simple mechanics yet hard to master. 🤭
Very polished game
Thanks 🤩
Tried on my phone at first, and it works perfectly.
I like how the blocks stick together and how they rock when you move the paddle.
Very nice entry 👍
Thanks for trying it out! 🤗
Great job! I'll never cease to be surprised by people making games on their phone
Thanks alot! It may not be for everyone but once you get used to it, it's quite amazing to be able to spin up your projects and work on it on the go!
Really nice visuals! I had a few hiccups but if those were patched out I can definitely see this being on an app store.
Thanks alot for trying it out! Feel free to drop me those hiccups and I'll work something out 👌
Sometimes the blocks coming down would go through my blocks and sometimes it would attach near the middle of my tower and sometimes it wouldn't. Also I i'm not sure if its intentional but I got some good mileage on swinging the tower going back and forth lol
Good Game
Thanks alot for playing! 🤗
Nice game!
Thanks! 🤩
Both the physics and visual effects are absolutely stellar!
Thanks alot for testing my game! 🤗
Add a way to make the blocks fall down faster and I’d have it permanently on my phone. Right type of addicting and not too big of a commitment to pass the time!
I also found it really interesting how the tower you eventually end up building falls down progressively so that it does not cover the entire screen.
Awesome job!
Thanks alot for playing! 🤩 it does progressively scale fallspeed but i may have set it to slow! You should start feel the difference around level 5. By ~15 you'll have some trouble keeping up. 🤭
Pretty cool! Cool spin on the balance theme. This feels very high quality for a jam game
Thanks alot! 🤩
A fun twist on tetris and falling blocks. The art and music are great!
Thanks alot for playing 🤩
Fun game! Neon graphics is awesome
Thanks! 🤩 I really like the neonvibe too! 🤗
Very fun! I'm impressed that you developed this on the phone with Phaser. I enjoyed the aesthetics and music.
Thanks alot for playing! 🤩 I'm actually developing just about everything on mobile nowadays. It's such a breeze to have an IDE in your pocket wherever you go for those tiny microbreaks throughout the day. 🤗
Such a clever twist on the Tetris formula! and quite well executed! congrats!
Thanks for taking your time playing!
I loved the neon visuals. Also the balancing stack mechanic is really great!
Fun to play, yet easy on controls.
Initially the mechanics were not clear to me but once by accident I discovered that I need to match the colours.
The skull block mechanic was not completely understood.
Some more visual effects and effects would bring this game to life!
Thanks for your feedback! Agreed to them visuals. I wanted to keep a balance mix of visuals to not put unnecessary load on mobile devices which is what the game is designed for. Perhaps in a post-jam build 🙌
Yes, I could probably make the skullblocks and overall mechanics more clear to new players. I did include a how-to-play modal on menu but I guess most people just press play and kinda cowboy their way around the game 🤭
Thanks for playing! 🤩
Nice looks! I didn’t quite get the rules though. Sometimes the stack crashes, I guess it was too imbalanced? But felt kind of arbitrary.
Thanks for playing! I should probably make the mechanics more clear to new players and not rely on the how-to-play modal on menu i guess 🤭
yes, the platform will tilt over and crash if it gets to much weight on either side. It will also crash if you repeatedly swipe the platform left and right as the blocks will start to wobble. You get one fallback token per run though to restore the game as it was prior to the collapse. 🤗
Fun game! :D
Thanks for playing 🤩
Very nice visuals! There is just a glitch sometimes where a block overlaps over another one, but beside this the game is cool!
Yes I've seen that happen too! I wanted to rework the attachBlock function but kinda ran out of time 🤭
Thanks for playing! 🤩
Nice Game dude. Feels like Balancing Block puzzle
Thanks alot for playing! 🤩
