such a good game 5/5

I wish my game was that good :(

Developer

Thank you!

This is really cool! Controls can be a bit wonky, but this concept is really good! Hope you're gonna continue you work on this one! :)

Thanks so much!

I think this could be the best entry in the jam, but the mechanics need a little work. (For instance: my character can't climb slopes?) However, the work that you've managed to accomplish in four days, solo is astonishing. Keep up the good work! Can't wait to see where this kind of ingenuity leads.

Developer

It's so nice to read that! Concerning the problems linked to the controller, I made the choice to focus on the core mechanic, and accept to sacrifice a little on the content side.

Enjoyment⭐⭐⭐
Neat gameplay idea! Unfortunately a bit buggy and frustrating at the moment but could be a great idea to build out more.

Creativity⭐⭐
I'm not really seeing the theme here, sorry. You're building things sure, but scale doesn't really seem to be a factor.

Style ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Very clean and stylish presentation! The sound design is very pleasing; it's satisfying to make the cuts.

Developer

Thanks! 

For the link with the theme. I interpreted it more as “building to order”. I invite players to sculpt their environment to create their own path, made to scale.

Very cool idea! Like the last person, had some trouble understanding I could grab cuts with E, but I still had a great time! It was a bit hard to make some of these puzzle, but IMO that's the perfect idea to expand upon to end up with a great puzzle game with a cool gameplay concept :D Congratulation on the game :D

Developer

Thanks a lot! I appreciate your seeing, as I do, the possibilities it can bring!

Super cool concept! Took me way too long to realize I can grab the objects with E... I love the artstyle, very sleek. Is the cutting done with ProBuilder?
I couldn't get past the part right after the first bridge. I don't know how to build these stairs :)

Thanks a lot! For the cuts, it's a matter of generating custom meshes completely in code. 

For the place where you got stuck, by gluing 2 objects together, they merge, which makes it possible to build a gateway to reach heights ;)
