very cute , the one problem i had was if you throw a pipe a certain way, it can be pushed under another pipe where your character can't fit, so you need to reset the level, but it wasn't a big deal at all

I pressed jump while holding a pipe, and it sent the pipe into the stratosphere. 10/10

Cute game! I love me some kobold content, and the models for these little guys were super cute. The rooms felt a little big for me personally and I wish I had slightly better control over the throwing, but it was really fun doing a pipe puzzle like this in 3D. It’s a really easy to iterate on concept, if you ever want to continue this post jam.

Also ran into some serious issues with fullscreen like has been mentioned - I had to play windowed to not run into it, so hopefully that can be tidied up in the future!

Developer (1 edit)

Did you play the 1.0 or the 1.1 version? the fullscreen bug should have been fixed in 1.1

Submitted(+1)

Must of been 1.0! (I played early in the jam period, but only just got around to commenting)

this is so adorable.  i know the controls are a bit jank but i kind of love it.  it made me feel like i'm really a hapless kobold trying to fix the plumbing despite having no plumbing experience.  really chill music too.  just a good time all around

First time I've seen a pipe game done in 3D, very neat concept! The kobold model is cute, and the audio is is fitting for the actions and environments. The puzzles could use more variance if you want to expand the game, but they remain pretty engaging for the current 3 level duration. It's pretty difficult to make a game like this operate so smoothly in a single month, very well done!

Developer(+1)

Thanks,
and yeah the game is totally smooth, no need to take a close look the code at all!

Submitted(+1)

A cool idea, simple but effective. I can totally see this work with a more complex movement and platforming system, like moving platforms or timed installations or stuff like that. Good job :)

this is so cute!  usually doing plumbing repairs fills me with irritation, perhaps i should try Being a Kobold...

Submitted(+1)

This is a little nice game, I like how you can unintentionally trigger a cutscene angle by gettting in the shower with them and making the camera colide with the walls of the shower making a suthen zoom in.

I love the character models and thought this was a fun little game. A few weird issues with fullscreen, I had to reset the resolution every time the level changed. Pretty chill. Very Pipe Dreams.

Submitted(+1)

I like it. It took me a while to notice their lil' doingles. Didn't have any issues and thought it was a nice chill puzzle game.

Possibly could've benefitted from a sprint button, especially in the last level, as it's a fair size and takes a little bit to get all the way across it to carry the bits back and forth.

This is a good game! Most of the issues like the physics and fullscreen stuff has already been said, so I wanted to say something a bit funny.

I think I ran into the exact same issue that and Null did. Two pieces of soap I needed ended up getting stuck behind a large pipe, and I couldn't grab them, but instead of throwing in the towel, I tried to almost "fish" them out with a loose piece of pipe that was laying around, and then I proceeded to accidentally push one of the pieces of soap out of bounds, where it respawned within my grasp!~ I then spent a while trying to get the other one out of bounds too!

If you ever decide to work on this game more, having things you need behind cute physics puzzles like that could be neat!~ (just with a little less OOB jank I think :P)

Developer(+1)

Thanks, i think the industry professionals would call your experience emergent gameplay, but i'm just gonna blame the physics engine lol.
I don't think i'll be working more on this game apart from bug fixes, i knew that designing a puzzle game would be hard when going into this, but i did think about i would also have to write the puzzle logic too. It's a miracle nobody has encountered issues with puzzles themself.

Submitted(+1)

A rather cute game. I did run into a few awkward things like not having good control over throwing objects. Also, in the final room I had to restart cause the soup got stuck under the big pipe towards the exit and I couldn't grab it.

The kobolds were cute and I like peeping on them in the shower. And the vibe of "Kobold showing in the backrooms" is an amusing vibe.

Really well done game, except for some bugs related to the fullscreen. The idea of repairing showeres in the poolrooms is really cool, I love the vibe of liminal stuff.

Developer

Thanks, the fullscreen bug should be fixed now.

The megalithic pool rooms are hella cool
