Isles in the Sky by Tanner
Hey! My 3rd LD, and 1st 3D attempt. I have done HTML5 game using PlayCanvas. That was great experience! ...and also a nightmare.
* You are on the floating world. There are teleports which connects worlds together. To activate teleport you have to find and attach Crystal to it. Crystals are placed in the Sky. Build structures to collect them!
* Controls:
WASD + MOUSE
LMB: Pick up items / Craft / Place structures
RMB: Drop items
Q+E: Rotate structures
F: Remove structures
If you aim at sides of structures then elements should snap to each other.
* Recipes:
Wood + Wood = Wall
Wood + Wall = Ramp
Wall + Wall = Platform
Problems? Try Chrome or Firefox.
Good luck! Thanks for comments!

Movement feels a bit uncomfortable..
Dobra robota!
Unfortunately, when the game first loaded for me no trees spawned, so I was a bit confused at first.
However, ultimately, I feel like you've got a great kicking off point as the potential to expand on this and make it into a puzzle/platformer with a crafting aspect is definitely there. If you decide to go further with this, I look forward to hearing of future releases
Oh, yeah, at one point I had to destroy one of my objects and it ended up removing multiple connected objects. (I just wanted to take away a ramp and it removed the ramp plus some walls)
After the shader are load and display with "debug"

The idea: Craft stuff, then use the stuff to build a structure so you can get a crystal. This works... at times, when you don't slip off the steep ramps (that are so dark it all becomes one black mess).
The crafting is simple and the way it's implemented follows suit: to make a wall, pick up a piece of wood, then pick up another piece of wood. It's nothing special, but it's there and doesn't get in the way.
What does get in the way is that you need quite a bit of wood to build your contraptions. to get this wood you need to punch mushrooms. I don't know why, but they just explode and leave wood behind, nicely cut into planks. to build these buildings you need to keep punching the muchroom, take another wall, platform or ramp up your stairs, place it, jump down and repeat.
There's no audio at all and that's a missed opportunity. Movement is abysmal. The game kinda ties into the theme. Jumping is all over the place; sometimes you jump 10 meters into the sky, and other times you jump half an inch.
Also, I got stuck between a 'shroom and wall in the 3rd section.
Here's the crazy structure that took a long time for the 2nd gem. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16325832/ludum_dare30/IslesintheSky.png
Cons: A bit hard to control, and a bit confusing.
I put a crystal in a structure and teleported to a second place, but then I didn't know what to do...
