Nice take on the theme and nice game mechanic!
After a while, it got a bit frustrating because I couldn't figure out why some blocks would stick and some others wouldn't.
Visuals are ok and the music is really nice.
Nice entry !
Nice simple stacking game. I like how you can vary the strength of your throw by the angle and distance from the cube, although a preview could help. Not sure how it determines whether the landing is good or not, since I had some cubes land safely on the stack but it disappears.
Nice game! It was surprisingly addictive.
I loved the mechanics. it's been fun, good job
Fun game. Addictive. Some of the blocks seemed to disappear though, even though they were on the tower.
this game was really fun! the sticking thing was a bit off, but it was fun to play and see how high i can go
Nice entry, very relaxing. I really enjoyed the music. It’s a little bit frustrating to have to use keyboard and mouse, maybe using the right click to move the camera would have been nicer in term of gamefell.
Great job !
I had to alt-f4 after 30 minutes and my singular attempt tower1.png It is fun and addictive, but the game logic is not yet finalized it seems and feels very rng-based for now, rather than a reliable ruleset that requires skill - which is irritating but I understand these are time constraints affecting the game.
It would be a 5/5 iPhone time waster after you apply a bit of polish, and many more hours will be sunk there! Great idea, neat chill puzzle-game music, I liked it. If you make an improved version, tag me pls - I would be glad to play it :)
@fluorescent oh, thanks for playing and for detailed feedback! Yeah, indeed, I tried to invent some interesting rules, which make game really skill-based, and more "straight" playable. But unfortunately, didn't finalize that.
this was a really interesting idea for a game and I really enjoyed the mechanics. it was a bit buggy at times (blocks floating in mid air or blocks hanging on a corner) but overall very relaxing and enjoyable. thanks for making the game.
fun and infuriating at the same time! Unique game concept that can be expanded further. Can definitely see this lending itself to touch screens and mobile.
Great job!
I really wanted to succeed in this game, but I'm not sure if there is an issue with my mouse input or if I don't understand something obvious.
I tried to sling cube and it worked, sometimes. My sling are either very small, as if the cube was extremely heavy or very big as if the cube was very light.
I manage to land one or two cube in the middle but there may be an issue related to my mouse sensibility, screen resolution or something else.
Really cool game, good job :)
Nice game! I always love some silliness in a game jam. This is basically what my bedroom looks like when I get home from work, but replace cubes with laundry
Cool game, though the physics are a bit jank at times. The blocks stick together half of the time, and the other half they disappear when they are balanced correctly. Nice idea for a game and its pretty fun though, good work!
Neutral: - UI is very basic and simple, yet easy on the eyes. Easy to see / read.
Bad: - No quit functionality, have to alt+F4 or ctrl+shift+esc to exit. - I had a 6 level tower but whenever I'd get the 7th one on (and it was clearly a valid throw) the cube would disappear after a few seconds, as if it were on the floor.
Good: - Good difficulty / well-balanced. - Audio and SFX were basic but they just "fit" the game. - Music toggle.
Overall: For a compo game, I love it!! Apart from the disappearing cube issue, this game was tons of fun to play. Well balanced and downloadable, not online , so it can be played without an internet connection. Great job man!

@togis thanks for your feedback! Maybe it's the problem with screen resolution; also launch direction depends on camera angle; also I admit that there are some bugs with throw calculation ;)
@barelyevengames ha-ha! thanks for playing!
@lubek-enterprises oh many thanks for detailed review!
A bit too tricky for my taste. But a perfect match for the theme and well executed game. This could be deployed to mobile and just count as a fun, full and well-designed game.
