pretty cool concept and has a pretty cozy feel to it

Love the idea, love the art and music, the gameplay is where it falls a bit flat. The biggest(and really only) problems are that sometimes I have no idea how far away the cursor is, and trying to change height is really annoying. I would probably suggest using Space and Shift to ascend and descend and using a raycast from the crosshair to the nearest surface for placing blocks. A few simple fixes would take this from a pretty albeit somewhat frustrating game to a really fun experience!

A surprisingly zen experience! The minimalist art style is delightful, and along with the peaceful music it felt very therapeutic. I would've loved an easier level to start with though - or at the very least, a slightly less triangular building to ty to cobble together out of cubes! Although I guess that awkwardness is kinda the point...

"You did it, good job!"... Camera pans over to my total sham of a copy... Instant shame sets in...

No, in all seriousness, I thought it was a very creative approach to the theme. Very nicely implemented, fun to mess around with. I could've used maybe a triangle or other shapes, but I understand if you didn't have the time for that. As it stands I enjoyed it a lot already. Nice work!

Nice game! I enjoyed the idea! It was a bit hard to work with I think, I would have loved to have more types of geometry, or to scale in the directions i wanted, but I still enjoyed the game, congratulation for making this!

Submitted

I liked this game, it was a nice idea that fits perfeclty the theme, very good ! :D

Submitted

Awesome visuals! We love the low-poly style and the nice colors. Really like the idea of the game! Great job!

Feedback in dms. :3

The control was annoying, but I liked the idea of the game and the atmosphere was lovely.  Good job.

Submitted

Cute little game! Had a little trouble with the controls.

Submitted

The controls feel kinda whack, specially because I cannot tell how big the cube i'm making is. The only feedback that tells me how big the cube is, is the sound. The graphics are nice though, and the scene feels nice to look at.

Love the style! I particularly like the monuments which are so cool! Good job :D

Submitted

Really creative mechanic!
I would've played longer but gotta review more games lol.
It seemed really difficult and i'm still wondering if there was something off about my approach because i didn't even get to finish the first level.
Great job!

Submitted

fun but really hard and i really  like the low poly lit art 

Submitted

A bit challenging but overall an amazing experience

Submitted

When you get the hang of the placement and controllers it is quite satisfying to play! Still pretty challenging. I would maybe introduce a simpler structure to build in the beginning to help onboard the player. Then ramp up the complexity of the structures.

Submitted

Really creative concept! Found it a little hard to control the placement of the blocks though

Submitted

I found it extremely challenging, but really nice concept and great execution! With a bit more balance this could be great.

I couldn't quite get past 40% unfortunately!
