How does your game fit the theme?
The game takes place on a scale (which was, well, built to scale). Also, you place little fellas (the "ubicados") of different scales onto it.

Interesting literal take on the theme. I feel as if the concept is a little flawed. Balancing the weight is not difficult, and actually gets easier over time (e.g. adding 3 kg when there's already 100 kg on each side is not gonna significantly tip the scale). But then, if the challenge is not in balancing each side, then the point of the game is to pack the ubicados as densely as possible in the size available. Which begs the question: are the scales important for that? There isn't any consequence for dumping an ubicado you don't want (which also makes packing compactly easier). Overall I feel the need of an additional twist to make the concept interesting.

Nice game! Very simple and easy to play. Love the music and I agree with the other comment. It would have been nice to have some sfx for when the box land. Or maybe some stretch sounds that pan left or right depending on which side is heavy. Overall, I thought it was a well-executed game!

247kg! Really nice concept, liked the actual take of "built to scale" litterally haha
And a good twist on the usual Suika/casual games like that

Talk about game balance am I right?! Ey? :3

Simple and pretty fun gamplay. Liked the music and visuals. Maybe some sound effects when the boxes died would have been fun. But overall a pretty well made and fun little jam game.

Got 310kg :D I feel like the best strat is to just throw away the small guys and stack up only the big guys. Maybe there should be a penalty for sacrificing cubes?

simple idea, but great implementation! I had lots of fun playing it. I think there should be a penalty for not using blocks. I found myself killing blocks, to get a more fitting block. :D

205kg, not too shabby! This game was super fun, I loved the tension as the stack got closer and closer to the top. The literal balancing act you have to keep up is really satisfying, and the physics feel great. Nice job!
