Is awesome. It has a lot of amazing quality details, things that are not usually seen much in a jam ... the character's wheel, the hands responding when turning, the dust effects, explosions ... On top of it it is a very beautiful game. The idea itself is also very original, stabilize the environment instead of a character.

graphics are very nice , the character look nice and i like its strechy hands , had a lot of fun on it and it can get pretty chaotic having to balance the whole world !

Really nice, super polished! The arm mechanic and other robot mechanics create a nice blend of point-and-click and action gameplay.

You have a game with a good potential, i really enjoyed all the little polish things that made the experience more juicy ! Good job

Ok, I lasted 3 minutes, what's the average?

Btw I love your game. It is a unique take on the theme and is really fun to play. Good job.

(I'll come back to reach an higher score)

Outstanding I may say. Simply brilliant. And now I want this to became multiplayer

Really cool idea! Amazing use of the GameJam theme! I liked that the enemies are weights :laughing:. Great job!

publicidadeba 2021-10-05 11:03

great job, I follow you on twitter and you are a big source of inspiration!

Simple and enjoyable gameplay and excellent graphics. The game and UI look great! But you need to play a little longer to get used to the controls.

Amazing game. It's really polished. The UI design and colors remind of some AAA game not sure which. The game also reminds of a minigame from Crash Bash in PS1.

What an awesome game! All the aspects are really well done wth attention to detail. I love the overall game concept and visual design, especially the enemy designs!

Really neat idea! I love arena style games and this fit the theme perfectly. I was grinning when I realized the enemies were weights! I wasn't a big fan of when the table would tip and you would lose your view of everything, which made it impossible to prevent your imminent doom.

Superb submission! Game feel definitely stands out here, the game feels very juicy. Great sound effects, subtle screenshake and awesome sounds. Next to that the game looks very visually pleasing and the mechanic of picking up weights to balance yourself out is such a cool and unique mechanic. Very cool!

Had loads of fun with this. Great concept, great gameplay and the whole thing has a good amount of polish. Only issue I had was with the fixed camera. If the stage tilts too far away from the camera it becomes impossible to recover since I can't see/interact with anything! Otherwise a near perfect entry

Was a lot of fun to play. Really like the art style cohesion and the little details like the hands swaying.

monninen 2021-10-05 19:16

Very polished and juicy gameplay. Good work with that. The graphics and music are very good too!

It doesn't runs on the browser but the window build works fine. As other people said, when the field tip over to the other side it's impossible to recover from it due to lost of vision. My highscore is 2:20! (I kinda forgot you can move things around with the hand in the later stage)

Hi! I have an issue with html5 version. Not sure why this is happening: Screenshot_1.jpg

gastar 2021-10-05 20:16

Very fun and goo looking game! Like visuals.

Got a bug with web version, tried different browsers, not helps. Balancefield_min.png

Win version works fine

codeer 2021-10-05 21:34

@gastar @dmitrygalias @kyboon Thanks for playing! Sorry about the web version, I'm not really sure what causes that, it runs fine most of the time but for some reason it shows the black screen on some devices. Thanks for checking out the windows version instead! (it looks and runs much better anyway haha)

omegafalcon 2021-10-06 00:04

Very clean and polished game

monkeyfox 2021-10-06 03:12

Very clean polished style, nice

rumiaobsessed 2021-10-06 05:06

Loved the concept, the weights with legs are cute. The only issue with wit the game is that its too hard to fall off.

codeer 2021-10-06 07:11

@rumiaobsessed thanks for playing! Have you tried increasing the difficulty in the start screen?

jake-summer 2021-10-06 20:53

this is awesome! i love the weights with legs. good job!

samuel-fine 2021-10-06 22:13

Very nice work, all around! Only suggestion would be to maybe tweak the camera perspective a bit. At its current angle, it was hard sometimes to tell how balanced I was. Besides that though, a really fantastic accomplishment in little time!

iajrz 2021-10-07 01:15

Played online. This was fun; I second the camera comment -- it could also be made to happen with light, though -- making the shadows more obviously "tell" you where is up and where is down by making a strong light come from "noon".

indrara 2021-10-08 15:47

Awesome game and very polished. great job!

onesmallboy 2021-10-10 14:38

Pretty cool game. Like the use of the theme and graphics were top notch. Great Work

hybridlizard 2021-10-11 12:16

Great fun little game!

Definitely your style is visible here. It is very polished, especially consider it took 3 days to make.

Walking weights were fun. It is very simple to grasp with a potential to reach a larger audience.
