Tumbling Towers by angryfacing

[raw]
made by angryfacing for LD28 (JAM)
Tumbling towers is a game where you only have one direction to build, up. You also can only choose one material to build with: Wood, Ice, or Stone.

Each material has their own attributes (weight, friction, and more). The goal is to build the tallest tower you can!

Controls:
Left Click - Place a block.
Up/Down Arrow - Move the camera.
Page Up/Down - Zoom in/out.

Oh, something cool happens if you wait a few seconds on the main menu. ;)

If you would like to reset your record, click on the "Stats" button and click reset.

If you would like to help with this project after the Ludum Dare/Ludum Jam, please let me know. I really want an artist to help me make this game look good. I plan on making it a free release on iOS/Android in the coming weeks (if time allows).

Haha, it's addicting. I found it funny just because of the relaxing music without any other sounds, also how the blocks sorta just llleeeeaaan until they fall.

Thanks WBojangles. I got carried away while making it. Was fun to just sit there and make tall towers and watch them wobble until .... boom ... they fall. :P

Put a smile on my face when watching the whole thing tumble down because of a silly mistake :) I like the music too, very relaxing and enjoyable.

Nice stacking game! Physics worked very well, and it was a lot of fun. Record: 121 meters.

Not bad! The physics were realistic :-)

soy_yuma: Thanks! Unity's built in physics work pretty well. All I had to do was dynamically set a weight based on it's type and size. Makes the building process much more fun in my opinion. :)

Solid game. I wanted to play it for much longer but want to play a bunch more games tonight.

Nice game. :) It's quite addictive, and the music is good too! Sometimes the friction acts a bit funny, but otherwise, good job!
