Interesting concept and more fun than the cover image led me to believe :) and hi Bob.

Just so you know, it’s okay to edit the description, screenshots, and cover image even after you already submitted! You just aren’t able to edit the downloads.

As for the actual game: Harder than I expected. I think it would be better if the controls were more responsive. Currently, to trigger the platforms, I have to press the mouse button while the mouse is currently within the platform’s area. This is really tricky when the camera is moving due to the character being on other platforms! I think it would be better to activate platforms if the mouse button is held down while the cursor covers over the platform’s area, which would make it more lenient and fun for me.

I made it to the first spring level, but had to stop at that point as it was getting too difficult, and my springs kept not being placed/disappearing into the floor. Were there any other placeable objects after the springs that I missed out on?

Thanks for the game!

Thanks for your detailed reply.
I actually didn't know I could change the images, thank you :) 

For the platforms, I intentionally made them this. I thought it would make up a bit of a difficulty. I will work on that and think about your fix for that. Sounds interesting!

As for the spring level, I've encountered this problem too. I think this is because of half slabs. The springs spawn at the lowest point of each tile, so if they are placed onto half slabs, they spawn under the ground. For that, you can place the springs in the air, they are gonna fall on the ground! That's one thing I gotta fix. 
Also, after the spring level, there is one last level with spikes. 
Planned on adding other items for it to get fun :)


Again, thank you, have a great day :)

In the level where you test for fall damage, my player disappeared and the level softlocked until I reset. The rest was great, though!
