Very calming and fun game. Just wholesome, great job!
Cute little game! The bounce on impact between the trunk segments makes it pretty difficult. Maybe I just suck but after a number of attempts, I only got to 12 segments, haha. Really digging the music. Congrats!
Very relaxed atmosphere, perfect fit for the theme, just great casual fun! :)
Nice game and great relaxing atmosphere. It was a bit hard to get a high score because the blocks were pretty slippery.
Very nice and relaxing game!
I love the visuals and music! It's pretty hard to get a high score, but I guess that was meant to be so :)
I was streaming my playthrough of some games and made a recording of it. I hope it will be helpful for you to see a first-time player's perspective of your game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88rtTOXawsw I'm starting to play your game at 14:58
I only got to 8. Really fun game. I could play that all day. Really relaxing. I was playing it instead of doing work. Nice music too.
This was great. It's the kind of game I need to play at lunch after a stressful meeting. And just listening to the music and watching the leaves sway in the breeze and the trunk hover back and forth, it's easy to zone out and relax, which is one of the best parts about chill games like this.
Very nice little game, I liked the graphics and the overall feel of the game. Brings very relaxing experience.
Really tranquil and smooth. I liked how the direction the segments were moving before the drop actually affected how they landed and connected, and I liked how the lower segments became more stable/glued together after a while, so that little instabilities lower down didn't kill the whole thing. The music was funky and fun, too. 16 trunks was my best tree. Nice work.
Pretty neat little box stacking game! I've seen one very similar entry that also involved building a tower with the exact same box-moving-back-and-forth mechanic, but this one is drastically different, which is super cool!
I particularly like the chill vibe this game has. It is essentially an arcade game, but it doesn't feel fast paced at all. It truly feels like the game is being honest when it tells you "Nice job!" after stacking only a single trunk. It's as though the game is embodying a sort of unwavering kind-heartedness. That's great, in my opinion. I think the music really works well for that.
At first I thought the game might benefit from having a slightly faster pace, but now that I'm writing this I don't think that's true. I went back and played it a bit more and I think the pace does work pretty well. And, when I sort of relaxed a bit more, I got my highest score yet (12 trunks), so that's neat.
Overall, this is a great take on the tower-building ... genre, or whatever it might be called. :smile:
Nice chill game, good execution of a simple concept! Mood is pleasant and music is nice :)
Graphics are a bit repetetive, yet the mood is very good. Nice, Simple, Calm.
Nice relaxing game. The music is really nice, the art style is cute, and the transitions looks very good. It is surprisingly hard. Well done!
This was a simple but absolutely fun game loop! From a few entries I've played, I've learned that starting with a solid loop (rather than an interesting idea) can yield a much more playable and fun result than trying to wedge that loop in later.
Smart to limit the range of the starting block, or I would have bumped up against the side ;) One trick I did end up using was leveling a pencil against the screen, to let me know when to drop the next block. I got a pretty nice trunk from that, but ended up underestimating a larger block that toppled off :)

Great job with the music, too! Pleasant and lovely. Enjoyed listening to it the entire time. And even though the graphics were simple, I liked the way you used the leaves to add a bit of variety and life to it.
Really neat game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 49 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/bBL_dduqErg
