This is an interesting interpretation of the theme!!

I really love the creativity and how well made your game is (I didn't see any bugs) except the obvious ones haha

I can see so much potential in this game, it is not made for my taste, but I think it is perfect for people who have the patience to decorate their houses in Sims. I just lack that ability. 

But the premise caught me so much I just had to comment haha 

THE WAND. POLLON, ALL THE OPTIONS, ALL THIS POWER??

Also I really love the images you provided as examples, really shows off the abilities of what you can make.

The luna moth is crazy good.

edit: are you experienced with real life sand art? The game just feels so right, it's hard to explain

Developer

Wow! Thank you for the feedback! I've never done sand art irl, but I did spend a lot of time playing in my own game once I got it running lol. I definitely a sims house decorator haha, but I realize such a game is not for everyone.

I'm glad it feels good! I really wanted to make sure the sand fell in a satisfying way. I spent a vast majority of the jam time fine-tuning the sand physics, I'd like to revisit this sometime after the jam and look into expanding the sand art capabilities (maybe add the ability to poke the sand or mix it up ).

Thank you for playing my game and leaving such wonderful comments!

You nailed it! This feels just like something I'd play for hours online as a kid, sooo delightful

Developer(+1)

tysm! I'm glad to hear I got the vibes right, I had such a specific vision that I HAD to make my own UI elements (which tbh I don't normally do). Thanks for playing!

Such a cool concept! Very relaxing to play, the physics effect allows you to make some very nice looking designs really easily. Great job with the UI!

Developer

Thanks, I'm glad the UI hit. I didn't have a ton of time to work on this jam, and I was frantically trying to put together my vision at the last minute ngl lol. Thanks for playing!

I really loved the idea and the visuals.

The only thing I would have added is some visual feedback on the selected colour. I have accidentally switched colours way too many times hah.

Submitted

same!

Developer

Thank you for playing my game. I appreciate the feedback and agree that would be nice. I ran out of time and ended up squeezing in all the UI last minute. If I come back to this after voting that will for sure be the first thing I add.

Developer

Thank you! I was really hoping to nail the aesthetic of old barbie games. I definitely spent a lot of time playing them when I was younger lol

I really liked the idea of colored sand, it reminded me of when I was a kid, playing with that. Really a cute idea !

Developer(+1)

Thank you!! I can't tell you how much I was just playing with the sand when I got it running. Almost didn't finish the rest of the game lmao
