Nice job! I was considering using particles for my game too but I've went other direction. I hope you'll add some water level equalization someday to fully match the communicating vessels phenomena!

That is something worth expanding! Might use some new structures and enemies but you're on a good track to have a nice, little indie game like "Baba is You". Good luck!
Hey, nice job! I was struck by the elegance of the theme interpretation. Please consider adding an ability to throw it up and not always be sticking with one end to the hand. Like if the hands acceleration in up/down direction exceeds a threshold it breaks a join and the stick goes flying. I was really trying to do it while playing!
Hey, nice spin on a classic genre. I was a bit surprised that only my ship's HP is important and not the earth's? Also the firing action seemed to be a bit clunky have you considered adding some sfx to it?
Digging tunnels is always nice even if with some performance issues and glitches (I've got some while jumping). One design question though. It took me a while to realize that no matter how much I dig I'll only have a limited number of blocks available for placing. Question is why is that, why not give the player ability to fully remodel the level? If you stick to the idea of limited resources I would add some audio and graphics feedback to notify player that the inventory limit is reached.
Not a bad one either. Just haven't noticed reaching the limit during my first play through.
Love the idea. I was aiming for the pool all the time! Maybe think on adding some reaction to such "achievements" it was kind of anticlimactic when I finally managed to place myself in the pool and nothing extra happened.
@jitspoe ok, so I was right that the fuel tanks weren't green before! But I didn't connected it with landing in the pool...
@wavertron you have a nice game too! TBH the way the lava is implemented is very fragile so I've needed to dismiss any more permanent structures to avoid lava's flickering. Nothing unsolvable but not in the given time.
@taffaz Thanks a lot! I think the design bug became a feature and having a lot of structures that you can't place or that are doing only little to stop the disaster adds a bit of a dark thought on how hopeless your faith is (only in this game, life is beautiful!). Imagine being one of the citizens producing those walls when you keep doing it while it can't help you anymore!
