At first I thought it was a bit clunky but it turned out surprisingly solid, imo this is a cooler take on the tower stacking genre and was pretty fun :)

Not sure how high i got, but I passed the purple sky and reached an orange sky. Keep trying, but I can't seem to lose anymore

Ice beam seems a bit too powerful, but the game was a lot of fun, and I really liked the art

One day I will reach the orange moon

Surprisingly very fun, the art is interesting and the growls are very nice :thumbsup:

I found it really distracting that goblins shouted what sounded like "vauva" which is baby in Finnish xD Had a lot of fun, almost reached the moon twice but rather than the game ending when the goblins touched the edge, they just disappeared and I had to reload to try again.

The art is so sweet and I laughed at the intro :D For me the game seems similar to "the world of goo", if you know that game. It has a similar goal, where you need small black animals(? xD) to build higher or in a certain direction. All in all, very nice idea and design :3 Nicely done.

Really nice game! I just think it's too easy.

Very neat little game.

Pros: - Amazing art style. I really admire your skills, visual part of the game is a very strong overall. - Sound design. The voiceover is gorgeous, if I were you I would have became a youtuber or at least a twitch streamer, your voice and ability to use it is a goldmine.

Cons: - After some point of the game, it's impossible to lose. I think that this is because your tower is still exists from the bottom no matter how high you are right now. So at the some point of the game you can just spam "space" and your goblins will catch the tower no matter what, as they have plenty of time while falling all the way down. - Also it would have been nice if you had an option to tune volume.

On the whole, a good time! I think, you can easily sell license to some "flash games" website. If I were you, I would have watched towards Y8 and Kongregate.

Nice game, love the return of the good ol' tower builder game. I loved the artstyle, the game idea was straightforward and it followed the them of this LD. Was a bit too easy, but that just means it needs more testing. Nice with a bit of story as well!

Cool game, nice use of the theme. The sound design and the graphism are amazing.

Really nice! Sounds were fun, and it is pretty cool. Just, maybe you can throw gobelin a little bit too fast

maximebou 2017-12-07 14:24

Classic but effective, the sound and visauls are great

jfraser314 2017-12-07 17:47

Fun visuals, but I didn't think it was too easy, like some others. The sounds are great and it was fun to play several times.

Classic idea, but love the humor and graphics! Big plus for adding abilities! :D

enot487 2017-12-07 18:56

It's really funny! Just looking at these dudes is already interesting! Art, sound and voice acting are excellent and perfectly suited to each other. The only thing, I did not notice any influence of birds. Great game, congrats!

There's just not enough goblin based media being made these days so this is a gem! Love the goblin art, the innovative procedural goblin generation, and the delightful goblin noises. A quality game!

rohezal 2017-12-07 19:33

I assumed because of the title, this would be a tower defence. Man was I wrong. I love the sound effects. But I did not make it past 23 meters. Is the moon realy made of cheese, so the poor gobos won't do all this for nothing?

a333 2017-12-07 19:53

Hahaha, I love it! The sounds are perfectly fitting the amusing and jocular art style, and the whole crazy idea of dropping piles of goblins to reach the moon is not something I'd be able to came up with ever =) Excellent work.

Saw the screenshot and instantly reminded me of our jam entry, with the crane, nice that you have it wobbling around the cord axis. Nice job and very neat graphics

sawtan 2017-12-07 20:47

Hehe this game had all things going for humor points, and I wanted to rate the audio high, the start voice acting was hilarious! Love all the goblin variations, and the story is gold! A great submission! Cheerz!

mike-cullingham 2017-12-07 21:00

Haha. Excellent game. Love the graphics and sounds. Would like a bit more clarity on what exactly causes the failure condition (I thought I had failed sometimes and hadn't, and others it was rocking back and forth but apparently stable and it was game over). Very nice job.

flip120 2017-12-08 21:46

Very funny game, I love the art, good work

gruhh 2017-12-09 16:01

I liked the concept and the art, but I felt the lack of some extra difficulty ...

Gostei do conceito e da arte, mas senti a falta de algum fator de dificuldade extra... :flag_br:

Very cool goblins! I enjoyed playing your game. Good luck to you!

hiki911 2017-12-16 16:00
