As far as the game goes - its barebones (as you already said) and its definitely more of a tech demo to show off your physics engine - but, which by the ways, is incredibly cool!

This was okay, but I don't see much gameplay. But it's fine for something made in 6 hours.
Thanks for the feedback :). It's true, the game itself isn't much of a game. It was more an experiment to see in which areas my physic engine still lacks when actually creating something with it.
Nice physics engine
Rate my tower:
@ionax OMG such a cool tower!! 4.37/5
its actually so cool to build your own physics system!
Great job
Really cool, I've also been working on a physics engine recently as a hobby project, so respect to you for implementing it
@cloverfall That's awesome, what kind of physics? When I started building my physics engine I had no idea that 2 years later I would still be working on it :D It gets complicated fast
@timo5034 started with 2D for now. Looking to go into more in depth constraints, got the basics but yeah. It really is a time investment
Cool physics demo, would have been great seeing just a tiny bit more of a game, eg something like build X high to make a signal tower with one or 2 more block types.
@sharky3188 Thanks for the feedback! I did plan to do something like that, but unfortunately my engine doesn't handle stacking other shapes well yet, so I had to stick to spheres.
Good for a demo. Need to be able to invert y though.
Pretty cool physics engine! Always a nice feeling to make your own stuff!
Great physics and very nice idea of the jenga tower game. I like it.
For a short tech demo this was really fun! The physics seem really intuitive and responsive, so kudos for that! I just wish I could place/remove pieces with the mouse button instead of the space bar
@paroxysmal Thanks for mentioning that, I didn't even consider it. If I build such controls in the future, I'll add it.
@niterich Ooh yeah you're right left click would have been a much better choice :D Thanks!
Congrats on the working physics engine. Highest score I got was balancing a ball on top of this tower:
