How did you implement the theme?
The theme of Fantasy is implemented through potions and elemental monsters - both very magical things.
How did you add the special object?
The bucket o' potion, as featured in the title, is the only way to defend yourself against the onslaught of Elementals. Therefore it is very important indeed.

Fun puzzle game and the graphics are perfect!
As another person commented, I agree that showing an additional next pipe helps with the planning. Was curious if you tried prototyping a version that showed multiple pipes.
Thank you! No, it's not something I considered or prototyped.. but I definitely see how it could improve gameplay. I'll give it a shot when the Jam is over and maybe release an update :)
I ended up with a high score of 17. I really enjoyed the visuals and the music of the game. When it was a double colour, that is when it was most difficult , with the RNG not giving me the right pipes. I definitely see myself playing this more; the gameplay is addictive.
I got a high score of 15. I have no idea if that's impressive or not lol.
Anyhow, this made for a really well done puzzle game! I like how the limited space really forces you to be strategic about your pipe placements. The visuals were also quite nice.
My only feedback is that it would be really nice to be able to see more than just the next pipe. I'd be in situations where I would need maybe one or two specific pipe pieces to create the connection, but the RNG decides to give me a piece I didn't want. If I could see more pipes in the future, I would be able to plan more. But idk, maybe I just need to git gud.
Overall quite impressive, and I really like the cover art of the game too! :)
I liked the game music and the visuals weren't bad but I couldn't really figure out what the objective of the game was, Another thing is that with the pipes begin so random it often makes the level impossible. ;(
True - As a hint: since throwing the bucket clears all pipes with potion, you can sometimes use "impossible" situations as a chance to clear up some space in the factory :)
The game is cute and the music is good, but I couldn't quite figure out how to play it well. 😢
Thanks for your comment! I added a little bit more to the game description to maybe make things more clear :)
I liked the game. Love the visuals and audio. Had a little trouble with the actual gameplay, but I got it after a few tries!
