Nice take on domino balatro/roguelike, also very polished and tactile!
Thank you, great minds think alike when it comes to our games!
Simple concept but a nice style and satisfying to make loops. Feels kind of like Tetris when you clear multiple rows.
The bouncy momentum effect of the dominos annoyed me - it made it hard for me to place dominos precisely and they bounced a lot even when I just made a tiny mouse movement.
Thanks for the feedback, the original plan was to make it more like tetris but I made it more loopy to fit more closely match the theme
This is a great spin on the Balatro idea! So much scope for building out this idea with special domino blocks, special tiles that trigger on placement, so much possibility. More choices of 1-of-3 things!
We created a deckbuilder, because we love choosing 1 of 3. Would love your feedback if you wanted to give it a try!
Thanks! Certainly has room to expand, I have plenty of ideas already
Holy smokes! This is definitely the most polished game I've seen from the jam. Great job, I had a ton of fun!
Thank you, that's very kind of you to say
Gret balatro like game, love it!
Thank you very much!
Yeah balatro but dominos - you did your thing with this one well done!!!
Thank you, it's certainly a good source of inspiration for these types of games
Feels really nice to play and well polished!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed!
That was ridiculously satisfying, well done
❤️
Scarily addictive and extremely polished, good work!
Thank you!
Easy and super fun to play! Getting large combos feels great too.
❤️ It's so satisying when it happens!
It's probably the most polished game I played in the jam. I love the mechanic and the Balatro vibe (UI). Amazing job! no doubt this is in my top
That's very high praise, thank you so much. I'm glad to hear you like it so much
This game feels great to play. It was so easy with only 2 sized pieces, the L shaped ones usually mess my field too much. The only thing I’d change is how the mousewheel works. I usually use my index for both click and scroll, I’d suggest adding keybindings to rotate and allow to rotate pieces before grabbing them.
Thanks for playing and the feedback, I definitely want to look at improving controls post jam, like you say just adding in some other key bind options
I love how polished this feels and the actual systems themselves are very in depth. Very cool!
Thank you so much ❤️
Felt hard to learn how it worked, and then it felt hard to do any actual strategizing to rack up points. Very narrow and unforgiving RNG at times. Very well put-together nonetheless.
Music gave me a blast from the past, also- only now do I learn it was the Royalty in Royalty Free himself, Kevin MacLeod. Holy hell. Thank you for that.
Thanks for playing, glad the music proved nostalgic! Yeah I still haven't got many strategies myself yet
Way too addicting i spent like 30 mintues pplaying this
Glad you had a good time with it!
Very well made and addictive game, very straightforward to play too! Great job!
Thank you so much!
I really like this. Its very well made and addicting to play.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it
Cool board game! I think it's a little addictive. Maybe because I like the aesthetics of dominoes.
Thank you ❤️
Your game is so good polished ! I was really pleased and relaxed. The only downside is i didn't understand how to score until five tries (i read your how to play but my brain didn't click)
yeah, I noticed great polishing too, so I'm jealous
Thank you! I've learnt for next time to put more time into making a clear tutorial
I didn’t expect dominos to be a really good theme for looping!
It definitely has the potential to be a really good game in general. Good call on not having a limit on score during the jam as it makes it fun to just experiment with what to place and make massive loops!
Though expanding the board made me a bit overwhelmed once the bigger pieces started to appear.
I do find it awkward to use LMB and the drag wheel at the same time. I think it would’ve been better as a click to pick-up-and-place kind of deal.
This game is fun, relaxing and potentially addicting.. I would love to see this fleshed out, actually!
Thanks for the review, I'm glad you liked it!
I agree the controls could use some polishing, I got used to the double mouse action but only because I was testing it so much. I might look at adding some extra button options after the review period.
