I’m glad you had fun and that you liked the decision to not add a score! That last point especially means a lot – it was a deliberate decision because it felt like it worked best with how the physics and mechanics were implemented, but (understandably) people tend to expect some kind of scoring system.

I’m glad you had fun! So, a bit about how this was implemented:

• If a block is thrown and lands on the hardwood, the block explodes into cats
• Otherwise, the block position/rotation freezes after it collides with something once velocity & angular velocity are close to zero

I think the case you ran into usually happens if you throw a block that hits another block that’s sliding down, and because the sliding block is being pushed in the opposite direction, its velocity becomes zero. Since it freezes upon becoming zero, it doesn’t actually get pushed up and just gets stuck there 😅 honestly thought there were issues with the conditions I set for position lock, but I didn’t think of a better way to deal with it. Maybe should have checked whether a block was in the space over the hardwood after its position locked and explode it then.

You are actually able to throw your block from any position, not just the bottom, and you’re also able to drag the block through other blocks because physics is ignored until after you throw. I think because I was aware of that as a dev, the possibility of a block getting stuck in the throwing area didn’t feel like a big deal to me, but I realize players aren’t going to be aware of that.

I’m glad that it came across as really clean – my goal was to make the game feel as polished as we could because the mechanic is simple. Maybe dev bias came into play because I stopped considering a scoring system since I enjoyed just throwing blocks randomly while testing without actually trying to make a tower 😅 some players chose to make themed towers (like no wood blocks) probably because of the lack of scoring system, so it’s interesting to think how changing the framing by adding scoring would change how people approach the game.

I’m glad you had fun! The joy of tossing items was the main point 😁

I’m glad you liked the controls and had fun! I think my collaborator might not like the idea of making more models though HAHA. The glue idea is pretty interesting, though I guess I’d try to think of a more child-play-friendly option (slime?)

Glad you had fun, and thanks for the feedback! The throw is determined purely from change in input position, so you bring up a good point – I should scale force based on screen size, so the sensitivity is more consistent across different devices.

I’m glad that you had fun and that the playroom feeling came across – we spent quite a bit of time tuning it. Also happy that you liked the tutorial UI – originally, it was just going to be a button in the same position as the “play” button, but it felt like you could easily tap too fast and miss the instructions that way.

Fun and silly was our goal, so I’m glad it came across! The meows happen for any block that doesn’t make it to the playmat, though it’s fun that it worked out that it was a cat coin for you.

Thanks, I’m glad you had fun! I enjoyed playing your physics building game too :0

I’m glad you liked it! I’m seeing that you made a game that uses “scale” in a lot of different ways too – will comment on the jam page after I finish playing!

Thanks! I designed it with mobile input in mind, but I didn’t actually build for mobile haha. I plan to spend some time figuring out a real mobile port (rather than just playing it on a mobile browser) after the voting period ends!
