Ranked from 29 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
You build a tower, and then your tower becomes a building block for the next tower. So the building scale increases exponentially, and you must design your blocks to scale well.

Very simple and so enjoyable

Nice game! I think that it's easy to do a spaghetti strat and cheese it (mmm spaghetti with cheese)

That said, it's a fun concept! Congrats on the submission :)

This is a really fun idea, forcing you to think on another... scale! The collisions are a bit too rigid in my opnion, and i did manage to place a tower in a kind of equilibrium wobel (so the green bar would start filling up, the reset, the start filling up again), but all in all an interesting entry!

Very fun game! I really liked the exponential nature of it and how you quickly get to make progress, and also the fact that you still need to be clever with how you build the tower. :)

My favourite game of the jam! Such a creative and elegant idea, works so well and leads to lots of replayability. I managed to get to 640m before my browser could no longer run it, but it was fun working out the tricks to make the best pieces to slot together.

Wow, that's high praise! Thank you so much!

This is an amazing idea for the theme good job! It's really fun until it starts lagging.

Brilliant integration into the concept!

I giggled like the overexcited child I am every single time my block size doubled and it fit perfectly into the next placement.

Shame that eventually it got too slow to continue with, but worth the play either way!

Thank you so much! I do the same laugh every time :) Yeah, physics bodies that grow exponentially aren't great for performance. I have some ideas to improve that after the jam.

Took me sometime to finally reach 160m. Enjoy when it collapses, keep it up! XD

Developer (1 edit)

I love that you enjoyed it even when failing and watching it come crashing down. It took me a while to get beyond 160, too.

Nice game! it becomes more and more difficult over the time to the where to put the objects, really enjoyed it!

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the difficulty curve :)
