Very beautifull aesthetic with nice music!:) Feels like you're frozen in time, lost in thought! Really nice:)

I dig the aesthetic , and the overall game is interesting to play ! I love it ,  I dont know if it would be better if the building mechanism has gravity tied to it . but overall good job !

i love how it's surreal in a comforting way. most games that go surreal have that creepy vibe to it and this one doesn't, really atmospheric and unique. i also enjoyed the music and how it layers, would gladly add it to my spotify playlist!

*spoilers, i think*
so, does it have an end? i got to the point where the narrator started speaking gibberish, then kinda decided that i need to go back to the beginning and then mashed the esc key a bit too hard and now the entire tab is just purple. i've been playing for at least 30mins, it would be reaaally sad if i just didn't get the ending. if there isn't an ending, i think this game really needs one. it would be like a complete game that you can sell for 2$ on steam

i think this one wins

This was a wonderful experience! I absolutely loved the aesthetic and theme, and the music was also on point. The mechanic was simple yet oddly relaxing, and it overall felt very original! :D

I managed to block myself off from being able to continue climbing because I placed a larger object above my head - it might've been nice if the player were able to pick up something that they had already placed. I also might've wished for the extend-o-arms things to be just a tad quicker; I enjoyed the slow, relaxed nature of the game, but the arm-extension seemed to be just a bit too slow.

Nice work!

aaah I can't stop playing!

It was really hard to make me stop playing this. This is so simple yet so beautiful,  The sound together with the atmosphere, it just made me want to go higher. Amazing game, would love to see more from you :)!

This art style is amazing! Reminds me of something Annapurna would publish.

This art style is really good looking, i'm a big sucker for those types of shaders.

The atmosphere of the game is definitely what makes it stands out, the moody piano and the other instruments coming in as you climb higher is a great idea.

The gameplay was pretty simple but still pretty nice, there are 1 or 2 things I didn't like though:
I would of liked it if there was a more precise way to know when you're gona grab an object and where the object will place itself (something like a preview "ghost" or something).

Overall one of the best looking game I've played for now this Jam, Nice work :)

Really neat art style. Not terribly much gameplay, but still some nice relaxing time stacking baguette and ladders.

Cool visuals! I'm glad to see someone else went with 3d ;) would love to see this idea expanded upon in the future.

Cool art style and music! Great job!

Submitted(+1)

this is simply gorgeous art and music! totally love it!

Submitted(+2)

The art style and atmosphere was great and the concept has a lot of potential. The only thing missing is some kind of win condition or maybe some kind of change in gameplay or new element as you go higher, but overall this is still very solid, good job!

Submitted(+1)

it is a chill game, and it is gorgeous, great music too!

The only thing i miss is more development on the idea and gameplay. You could have a win condition or something that holds you back? Faster controls would also be nice! 

Good job! =)
