Realy great using of the theme, special mention for the humor! I love these little blocs and how they move! Great work! Just a little strange the way the countdown starts or doesn't start.

But anyway, nice game, lot of fun, i like it! 😄

5-star humor! I really like these squishy stuff. smart way of using the theme. simple and fun. great job.

Lovely little gem of a submission here. Love the faces on the blocks, definitely had me chuckling at some of it, and surprisingly frustrating -- in a really good way. Fits the theme nicely, and levels are well designed, which is always a miracle in jams, I find :D

Love this! it's so cute and fun - really nice twist on the 'fitting smaller shapes into a larger shape' idea, and it's completely dripping with charm :) i laughed every time one of the little pieces said something when it hit a wall lol.

did seem a little unforgiving tho lmao - I'm not sure what other solution would be better for space but the countdown didn't start :P

The game is nice, the controls get a bit frustrating after a while, a little less inertia might be better. But a lot of fun and the block faces are really funny!

The sounds and emojis of the blocks are priceless! Had a problem when they stuck in each other. Masterpiece!

These squishy blocks are really cute!! really enjoyed having them all packed into the box.

really nice game overall, graphics, mechanic, mood. I just though a bit difficult

Love the vibe of this game, really good idea floating soft little beans in to a bucket :) I struggled a bit getting levels 3 and 4 to register what i thought was the intended solution. I'd also say the pull strength should be higher on larger cubes; I couldn't move the big cube at all once it was inside the bucket. Overall it's a great entry. The faces and sounds are a great touch :)

Web version on ldjam is broken!

Graphics are very cute, but a "placed" count in a corner and a little bit of hovering / holding outline would look great :)

I'd also love to see (or rather hear) some sound effects. Other than that, I like the game and how it was made, great job!

Thanks for the kind comments everybody! I think I may have mistakenly changed some values in level 4 at some point that made it harder to win, since I've noticed a lot of people struggling to make it work despite solving it the same way I did when testing it.

Great Game! Managed to clear all the levels 😎 Level 3 ended up being the hardest for me LOL

Nice game! Love from GameBuilders 👀 Like the squishy effect of the blocks and their faces, I enjoyed it a lot.

Great work! Loved all the different blocks and trying to really squish everyone together!

There really is something to be said about mechanics that feel good. This game is like peeling the plastic off a new phone or stuffing a PB and jam sandwich into a VCR, very satisfying!

There is something really satisfying about squeezing these shapes into a box, haha! Managed to complete all levels, and had a lot of fun doing so. 😄 Thanks for this fun entry!

softbody_physics.game, I love it! Such a cool spin on the theme! The first thing I thought was: can't I just brute-force everything? Which, yes, but the interesting question is *how* you can brute-force it. The only qualms I have with it are the veeery floaty controls.

Most fun and most challenge I've faced in the jam entries so far!! Great minimalistic game with some minor rough edges that kept me from completing it. I got real stuck on level 6 and couldn't keep going out of frustration. I swear I had the whole thing in several times, and the countdown wouldn't start... until I clicked outside of the box, and then the countdown started at the same time my shape sprung one of its edges out! What a fun concept and take on the theme - this feels like a top 10 contender for sure. Audio was great, the randomized faces were awesome, and while the controls felt difficult at times, they added to the humor and made some in-world sense with how squishy these fellas are. Amazing work!
