Nice work with the base mechanics!the concept is really nice but without some art,sound and some obstacles that ll spice up the experience is kind of dull.

yeah, I wish I had taken more time to work on it before submission has some things go down during the jam timeframe that sadly prevented more refining, but I didn't want to not submit next submission will be more polished and so will this game for the future thank you for playing and for the feedback much appreciate the suggestions
It needs some danger or randomness. As is, you can just start the game and step out for a cuppa, and set the All Time World Record (which I did: 7:50, wooooo!)

Dot's Wicked GardenI like the core idea! Would be great to see more mechanics added like some way to disrupt the player to drop the boxes to really bring out the balance concept. Other than that great job!

Apopcalypsethank you so much im glad the basic mechanics are at least a good starting point i am going to expand on the idea maybe make some new blocks fall from the top of the screen and stuff, this project was alot of fun for the jam i will definitely be doing more in the future, again thank you for the feedback!
thank you for the feedback I was hoping to refine it more I tried to make the code spawn the blocks in an offset position probably should've spent more time on it. For a first time game jam I was happy enough to have functionality as far as it did, still learning only been learning for a bit 6 months now next time I'll do much better 😀
think you could do something like this: you start with a couple of cubes, but every so often, another cube drops in a random part of the field, and you have to catch it.
Eventually, the tower will grow, and the player won’t be able to ignore the mechanic.
In any case, good luck with your future projects!
