Very clever! A bit finicky to build, but also consistent and intuitive (it never felt like the game's fault when I knocked my tower over). I'm also glad I managed to remember my number, and I really enjoyed the humor as well.

Wow this is awesome idea, so simple and clever! The gameplay was a bit on the frustrating side for me, I'd prefer to at least have the ability to rotate grabbed piece, but maybe it's just me. Overall I'm expecting to see this game in Mark's top 10 video, it has all properties for that. Also I'm a fan of the game title (as well as all the game jokes)

OMG this was really amazing Malek, really getting every jam right! This was so fun and quirky xD Really 10/10 Again a really impressive and creative game!

Incredible game.
It starts with a semblance of rigor, but it constantly hit you with clever twists and curve balls.
The clunkyness and sillyness of everything truly create a unique experience.
Thumbs up!

Very funny and entertaining. Felt great to play and the style was great. Excellent work!

awesome idea! i found the physics stacking got in the way of the estimation a bit though

I learnt two things about myself here:  I'm bad at stacking things and I'm bad at estimating heights. Really fun game though, love the humor!

Hello this is former president Barack Obama and I have come to tell you that Poorly Constructed Rough Estimations is an epic game. The physics reminds me of the classic flash game Super Stackers 2 but with wacker physics, and it is fun to build with the blocks. My only complaint is that it demands your height knowledge and the height of second building one is especially evil but I still enjoyed it.

Really clever! Loved the loop of the game, the presentation of it all, and the humor. Almost felt like a WarioWare mini game that you play repeatedly.

Honestly, this is one of the best games I've seen in this jam so far. Very clever design. I nearly burst out laughing when it asked me to make "the height of your second build". Only complain I have would be something to use the money I made for, or at least some sort of cumulative scoring. All in all, awesome job here.

Funny game(I had no idea how to play but I liked it still, hate physics stacking games)

"Do you use american or normal units", omg so funny. Nice work! I had a good laugh!

Wonky Physics that were fun to play with.  It was fun throwing objects across the screen!!

This reminds me of another game I made about comparing sizes of stuff. Great stuff.
