I'll be honest I have no Idea how to play this game. Sorry.

man that goo has a mind of its own! :) cool game!

Cool game! the idea is good but at the beginning it was kinda hard to know how it works. A fast explanation could solve the problem :)

Very great art! Love the music too

It took me a while to figure out how to get the pipes that I wanted. But gives me tetris vibes on a different axis but with more goo, cool concept!

I've played few times and on third turn I understood how it works, but not completly. :( Place where tank is cracking should be better presented, now its bit too thin.

My highscore was 1300 points :)

Nice Idea!

I really liked the graphics and once I got the hang of things I started having fun! The list of upcoming pipes was confusing at first as they're close enough together to merge visually. My initial thought was that it was possible to get pieces that spanned multiple tiles. I'm not sure if I explained that right, so I attached a picture that hopefully shows what I mean. Once I realized what was happening, the game became a lot more clear.

Very great game art. It was a bit hard the first time, to see where the goo comes out, but after the first lose, I figured it out. The background music is pretty decent, and the mechanics behind the game are very creative. I havn't really figured out, which piece comes the next, because everytime, I got an other one ekse shown on the left side, but anyways a very fun game to play.

Beautiful graphics! Reminds me of some old PC games from the nineties!

I liked how the goo visually moves through the pipe.

super fun concept! works well with the theme!

Pretty typical but fun pipe game. I agree with others that it's initially confusing. Basically impossible to seriously strategize, mostly a pure reflex game. I don't know if it would make the game too easy for your liking, but I would so like to have the ability to rotate pieces.

Initially it is a bit confusing as how the goo is moving through the pipes( that the cross pipes are essentially in the flow direction and you don't have to plug the other ends) and sadly the highscore counter at the end did't work for me. so i don't know how long i lasted. But other than that it is quite a neat game.

Cool concept. A little bit confusing but interesting.

anaxie-studio 2022-04-06 12:04

Cute! I agree it was unclear which way the goo would move while crossing through crosses and when it would turn into water, but it was a lot of fun to play! Simple but engaging.

My highscore is 2400

oooh! This is my favourite so far when it comes to becoming addicted. I loved playing pipe dream when I was little and this is a new take on that classic! Thank you for making this. :)

I could have used a better indication of which pipe was next but the game was simple, very fun, and the art was charming.

I GOT TO BLUE JUICE! I feel like i've accomplished something because it wasn't easy. (1200 points) I wanted to rotate the pipes soooooooo badly.

frank-gevaerts 2022-04-10 13:09

I had to try a few times to properly understand what was going on, but then, on my best run, I got 4500 points :) After looking through the other comments I'm quite e proud of that! A very nice game!

lerc 2022-04-11 23:16

Got to 3750.

Nice game, fit the theme well and fun to play !

Nice game! Like visuals and utilizing the pipe-game genre. Sometimes the game feels so random, so the score can range to 0 to a lot, or losing a game because the random has rolled incompatible pipes. Also I thought that the cross pipe will starts to fill in three other directions. Still it's a good entry for a jam
