Yeah, that 2-logs-1-birdgage-1-barrel level takes it up too many notches and turns out quite frustrating. I managed to balance them after countless tries, it held over the full countdown, was cleared, and then indeed everything fell, and it switched to “level failed”. Dang it. So I would assume that this is the very last level – else it would probably have switched to the next one. [However, confession, it turned out right after the deadline, that in mine you can reach the win state and then get accidently hit by a remaining missile (who would try to avoid them any longer?) and it switches to that “failed” display. Sigh.]

Okay, pretty fickle, but a cool idea, very charmingly delivered. Also, I could have sworn it had music when I played it two days ago for the first time. Weird.

I really love this game, I love the art style, the gameplay, and that darn turtle. I can't really think of any negative aside from a few glitches,  or lack of music, or maybe that the objects keep rotating and never stop. But those are all just additions to an already great game, they dont make or break the game. This is a seriously well made game. Very Fun

What a nice puzzle game! Incredibly challenging though, I got up to the level with the logs, the birdcage and the three barrels before I gave up.

Love what you did with the theme and how good it feels to get things stacked juuuust right so that it doesn't tip over at the last second.

Up to the point where I got stuck, pretty fun :-)

So: Another victim of the bird-cage level here. At some point I tried shoving the turtle aside with one of the items, so I could stack the load against the wall, but that didn’t work either. – I think maybe part of this is because the physics platform is seemingly a completely different shape from the turtle.

The hand-drawn art is extremely charming!

I could not beat the one with the bird cage. I even tried bugging the game by getting the turtle to YEET out of the water but no dice.

I loved it though.

Gameplay was a little hard. However my favorite part was the hand drawn art esthetic. Good job.

This is great! Gameplay is extremely precise and challenging, rewarding patience and care but never feeling unfair when punishing clumsy or rushed play. I appreciated the ability to grab already placed objects and quickly correct (or, in many cases, attempt to correct) my mistakes before everything goes wrong :)

I found the visual style really quite charming, and felt extremely guilty every time I accidentally flipped the turtle.

I was defeated by the level with 2 logs, the bird cage and the barrel, but had a fantastic time with the game :)
