Hey!

Cool Game!

I wasn't sure what to do at the beginning because that's not the kind of game i would usually play but after browsing and clicking on the different platforms i understood how it works and i liked it.

I would maybe add a short tutorial just for the first build. maybe somekind of animation or progress bar to add juice to the feel. I liked the economics and the gradual progress.

i played full screen from my laptop and the zoom in/out was too sensitive for me.

I’m also looking for feedback on a short browser game I just released, Toy Box Challenge. It’s a 5-minute physics stacking game and I’m currently looking for desktop + mouse playtesters. If you feel like trying it, I’d really appreciate your honest first impression:

Hi, I played your game:

It was nice and cute. Like the chill vibes. The block stacking challenges could be a bit harder and more varied. As it is now, I could always just stack the square blocks.

Thanks a lot for recording this! seeing how you approached the game is especially useful!

Your point about the square blocks makes a lot of sense. If they’re always the easiest solution, the other shapes aren’t really forcing enough different strategies. I’m going to keep an eye on whether other playtesters run into the same thing before changing the level design.

Really glad the chill/cute vibe worked for you. Thanks for the thoughtful feedback!
