I survived the rain under a rock! You had some really impressive tech for a jam game. Even if the art style was simple, I think the character was quite cute with their long limbs ❤️

Survived under a rock! Great entry and was fun throwing physics objects around!

Very cool game! I really enjoyed playing with the world and finding/creating a good spot for a shelter, the ik on the limbs was super cool. Really good entry!

Really cool game! It was super awesome watching the character move, it was really unexpected but I thought it was super great! I was also super surprised to see that I could break anything in the world! I really love the system! At times things could feel a little bit sluggish, and I also wasn't totally sure which blocks I could stand on top of and which I would fall through. That being said, I would totally love to see different goals brought into this super cool idea (racing, pvp, etc.)! Well done!

Very nice! I liked the physics and the gameplay. I ended up making a little hideaway on the left part of the map and piling a bunch of wood and ground blocks above me.

I survived! i won.PNG

Nice work here, the tech here was really impressive for such a short time! I had a blast destroying a bunch of things to make my shelter!

This game is INCREDIBLE! The physics are so good!!

I did all of these intuitive things, like grab a ledge with my hands to pull myself up, and it just WORKED. I was really impressed with the core system.

The art style really worked well, and the limbs of the character gave so much life to him through his struggles.

I played until I won, and really enjoyed it. Here is one of my early attempts at shelter, which obviously failed:

The challenge of sheltering from the rain was a great choice. It really forced me to engage with the best part, the physics. I had to make plans at a macro level ("What will my shelter be and how will it stand up to the rain") and at the micro level ("How will I weigh this cross-beam down while I get the stone shingles in place?").

At first I got more complex than that early house, but in the end I won with a MUCH simpler house that I won't show here to avoid spoilers.

I don't know if this game is for everyone, but it was for me.

Cute, fun game! I love some silliness in a game and this did it for me.

wowwww incredible mechanics the movement is enjoyable I hope you get past the minimum rating

if you are considering making a post jam try adding some textures and more creatures and new objectives and the game will be great thank you for the game 💙

This was awesome. When four-legged creature show up next to me, I instinctively hit it with a rock, and it felt apart. I laughed so hard XD Great game mechanics and really cool idea! Great job!

Haha I am so confused. But I had fun! Well done ❤️
