The shaking effect is cool :)

I really like how you provide user feedback -- i.e. the noisey sound that plays when you delete some blocks and the white-outline-squares that show right before that!

Interesting game, well done I included it in part 5 of my Ludum Dare 30 compilation video series :) http://youtu.be/W46twhRFdK8

Good game overall, a neat perspective on the theme and puzzle games in general

Super cool puzzle game, dude!

Very confusing at first, but very interesting once I figured it out.

Clever little puzzle game. In the first stage I wasn't sure what I was supposed to do at first, but I re-read the game description, and it made more sense. Then I enjoyed the rest of the game.

I thought the idea was pretty unique, and the visuals were nice. But I found it difficult and frustrating to play. I really would've liked to be able to rotate the worlds, place worlds even when part of them is outside the playing field, and place worlds fully on top of other worlds instead of harvesting. I played for about 15 minutes and couldn't manage to complete the first mission.

Nice :) Took awhile to get used to it but was quite fun once I did. Normally I don't have much patience for puzzle type games but I felt this one struck a nice balance where you didn't have to be exactly right in your placement of everything but still had to keep it in mind. You could even probably include a timed mode! I played till the end and was having fun the whole time. Well done :)

Hi there. Interesting puzzle mechanic. Got to 3rd level. Nice straightforward UI. Good job!

I didn't get the puzzle...
The hud and style is good. It's look like a nice game but what Is the objective? And how I win?

I won! Crafty. This is a well-designed game; I liked how placing and picking up are the same single button and it's just a function of what's on the board beneath you. I didn't see your instructions in the entry, so I had some fun figuring it out myself. I think the clues in the game are enough. FWIW, I felt the first mission was actually the hardest. Scaling the harvest penalty in the later levels would have seemed fair. It would be nice for the game to just tell me how much I'd get from harvesting before I did it, though.

Really neat idea! Not so much my thing, but the polish and care taken with this is incredible. Thank you for the game!

cool

honcho 2014-09-08 20:28

interesting idea!

kugrou 2014-09-11 04:20

Really cool idea, though it would of been interesting if their were more varied goals.

elefantopia 2014-09-11 04:20

Hmm, in the web version, parts of the screen are cut off. Even with the instructions, it was kind of confusing to play. I tried to harvest by hovering over the tiles, but nothing happened?

tanser 2014-09-11 07:10

Very interesting idea!

Really awesome puzzle game. The first mission was just right for figuring out how everything works without any real pressure. It's just maybe a bit too hard to get a planet with only green blocks, the first mission took me probably the longest.
But once I understood it, the rest was a breeze and fun to play.

I wasn't quite sure what I was doing... If I understand what you were going for this could be an interesting puzzle type. Something I don't think I've seen before.
