A fun and thematic twist on polybridge-style building! It's a whole other challenge when your build has to follow the moving car, suddenly needing to take balance and impacts into consideration. Not the most summery or lying instructions, but all in all the gameplay felt seamless and funky. Had a lot of fun. Worth pursuing further!

Love thissss!!! needs a little bit of sfx or maybe more narration as the comment below points out, but overall superb! love the drawings of the cats <3

Awwww Thank you so much! It feels really nice to know that someone enjoyed our game so much! The cats are based on our real life kittens. We will be working on the sfx, narration and other features in the future. We hope you will check back on our game.

Thank you for thinking the narration was good! It was slightly rushed, but I am glad people are asking for more haha!

I liked the humor in the intro and thought it was a fun game. I did notice when you drop the package beneath the bottom bar it's unretrievable but I was able to start over and make up the progress. Good job on this one, a vacation well earned.

Thank you so much for playing our game, and for your kind words!:) The package is retrievable, if you move the camera, however we see how its a problem so we have fixed it, now you can no longer put it behind the bottom bar!

I appreciate the kind words about the intro, it took a few rewrites and many recording attempts, so I am glad people found it entertaining! We are hoping to add more in future development, along a "Stanley Parable" sort of line, so I hope you will have chance to check out the finished product!

The concept is really really cool. You should work on this further for sure. The narration can be put throughout the levels like getting over it and some other games. The intro part looked like a youtube animated video, so great work.

The game itself took a bit to learn as there was no labels or anything like that, though I will give you extra for using Dear ImGui :)

Thank you for playing our game, and for the kind words!:) Yes, that was kind of our plan with the narration, i hope we get to do it soon! And about the intro yes, that was the idea so im glad someone noticed lol!

We also got that feedback about the learning curve from some of our friends, we plan to extend the tutorial and add labels to more things, we already added some so i hope it makes it easier to adjust to for new players!

Hey! Programmer here. I was kinda rolling my own solution for a lot of things to challenge myself and to test out parts of an engine I'm working on for an other project. I was planning to make a custom UI as well, but in the end I ran out of time so Dear ImGui was to stay, as it was already in use for development tools. I'm glad you enjoyed our game!
