Even just as a sandbox it's quite fun, good job!

Strange, can't get past the main menu. I can see stuff in the background, but there is only a "Quit" button, no way to start the game :(

Weird. Not sure why the colors are like that but it's hiding black text that says "Press Enter". So just hit the Enter key to start. I suspect the colors will still be messed up but you should be able to play! Sorry it's working weird for you.

Oh, thank you! The game is working perfectly after pressing enter! (not even wrong colors)

Oh perfect! Disregard the comment on your game regarding the how to get through the title screen. You replied faster than I thought you would haha. Glad you were able to get it going!

Think the idea of this one with how your placement of the objects in the small room being mirrored on the outside is really interesting! I did find it quite difficult to place the objects in the position and at the size I wanted to be able to get the vehicle to drive over, and unfortunately didn't manage to reach the trophy.

With a little more work on the controls and the way you can manipulate the objects I think there is potential to create a bunch of cool puzzles with these mechanics. Good job!

Thanks!  Yeah we burned a lot of time on setting up the scaling mechanic and ran out of time to make it easier for the player to place objects and actually traverse them. We really appreciate the feedback!

Note to the player: We did not finish the game. There is no proper gameplay loop, so it's more of a sandbox. The general goal is the get the front loader on top of the building to get to the trophy (without abusing the jump mechanic).

Very interesting mechanics to have everything inside mirrored outside! It's rather buggy (my frontloader flew to the sky for no reason) but great job nevertheless!

Yeah this is definitely what I would consider a "minimum viable product tech demo" lol. Thanks for playing!

Yep, you have the mechanics; now you just need to pull it all together. 

Good game overal.

Definitely burned all of our time making the concept work. Wish we were able to sneak in the intended game loop. Oh well. Thanks!

Thank you! We didn't end up having time to implement much of a gameplay loop. It's kind of just a sandbox at the moment. We'll put a note in the description.
