This game's controls are goofy as heck but it is a lot of fun!! I love how much speed you can build up and that crashing into things doesn't kill your momentum. The graphics with the tower spin perspective is fabulous! Very nice work!

Submitted

Love the art, it's really cute. The circular level design is original and impressive. I just really wish I could get to the top lol

Submitted

Infuriating! I LOVE IT!
The leaf blower's rotation could get faster-slower depending on the players progress, just an idea.

Submitted

Very fun game, it made me laugh with how the character flies and how chaotic it can be to control. Excellent idea. Although there are things yet to be implemented, the concept is good and enough to have an enjoyable time. Bravo!

The 2D/3D effect looks great and Cute graphics

I like the cute graphics and the general concept of ascending a tower with a leaf blower. 

That said, it's a tad unfinished and there's lots of ways this could be improved, especially audio and the control over the leaf blower direction.

But hey, a first jam entry and it's a 3D game. Kudos!

I feel like getting any sort of speed is kind of tough. Shooting when the leaf blower points straight down seems to cancel my sideways momentum sometimes, which takes some joy out of it.

I do really like the idea tough!

spam spacebar ftw. If the controls were more reliable it would be better!

I like the graphics a lot! It would be nice if it wasn’t so easy to fall all the way back down

Damn, thats a difficult one, but really fun! Pretty unique control scheme :)

Nice game, i think the mechanics is ingenius, and the pixel art over the 3D environment make it really tasteful. it feels a bit hard at the beginning but maybe i didn't play it enough time.

Developer

Now I think it need very easy start with save way. Sadly, I didn't have time to think about it during the development 😁

Cool game, very unique idea!

The 2D/3D effect looks great and I wonder how you implemented the physics with rotating tower.

Controls are a bit unwieldy with blower rotating so fast, but making it go slower would  introduce different problems and just pointing blower yourself (i.e. with mouse) could make the game too easy - some playtesting with each approach could show which way is the most fun.

Great job!

Tower rotate via some kind of connection of characterbody's velocity and node3d rotation. It has some limits and bugs 😔

First idea was to blow away some air to visualise impact. But it has some problems and was not ready at deadline. So, I cut it off 🙂

Submitted(+1)

Always a good idea to cut, limit scope if it means the project is finished :)

That's  a fun game ! The controls are hard to get used to,  and           I didn't get to the end of the game but this was fun ! 

Developer

Thank you! Controls needed more time to polish, and is mainly loopholes instead of solid math 😁

Great effort!

Thanks! I'm glad I could finish something, even though it's not perfect. Didn't even made any sound effects 😁
