Fairly simple game and definitelly has its relaxing value! The objectives do scale as you go and do a fine job keeping you entertained for a time. Unfortunately it does get repetitive rather quickly if you are not of the more creatively minded kind. While I like the objectives I do feel they don't quite lead to generating the neat scenes like in the screenshots, granted I don't know how you'd achieve that through objectives alone but it's worth thinking about.

All in all I had a good relaxing experience

Wow, thanks for the in-depth review - I appreciate it! I agree that the objectives could be more engaging and could somehow be reworked to fit the game jam's theme. I think in the game's current state there's not too much going on and it lacks feedback or something for the player to work towards since there isn't any puzzling or challenge required to complete the objectives.

After giving it a second thought, I think if you can *somehow* keep track of objectives tasking the player to make new small areas, it would force you to not rely on a single perfectly spaced colossal area of each tile and at that point you literally have to build (to scale) for the later potential objectives ahead of time. Might add a lot to the puzzle aspect of it.

Nothing complicated and soon gets repetetive, but nice visuals and could serve as a great start of something more. Good job, please keep going! :-)

Developer

Agreed, repetition is not good! Thanks for the feedback :)

This is a nice little cozy game. I think there is an opportunity to add more objectives or build on top of this.

Developer

This is something we would have liked to work on more! Objectives feel somewhat repetitive and get stale real quick

Thanks for the feedback! :)

Loving the pattern visual that blocks make! I feel there could be more challenges & achievements though. Keep up!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

10/10 pls add more blocks

I do like the whole objectives getting bigger, and this is a nice zen game, but after a while it gets a little stale. But I enjoyed my time with it!

Developer

Very valid point - level progression was done very last minute and I agree it can be refined more.

Fun game! I love the art, but there is not that "Built to scale" as for me

Developer(+1)

Yeah that's a valid point, thanks for the feedback!

I only have one thing to say...

Nice and chill sandbox :) I like the pixel art on the tiles too, I feel this could become something bigger if you keep working on it after this!

Developer

Thanks! That's the kind of feel we were going for :)
