Not sure I'm I'm doing something wrong, but I'm running 64-bit windows and when I try to run the batch file the console just opens and closes quickly. I can't play.

It doesn't really seem playable at the moment, but I would like to see a post-compo version.

I can't work out what the second block in the list (featured in level 4) does; i.e. I don't understand level 4. Help?

Not working for me either.

This isn't a original concept but i liked it :)

Really fun :)

Whenever the player is killed though, the level is restarted and you loose the item you were going to place! If that is on purpouse it makes the game such more difficult!

Really nice idea, and great fun!
But the game really need a pause button.

The level design is good, but the player doesn't have time to think. Some levels have an alternate solution (solved level 6 without collection coins in the lower right corner, solved level 8 without buying anything), so you should have been tested it enought (or ask people).
I didn't find out the feature of the cracked brown block. Whenever I hit it from right, it seems to crack more, but the player goes 1 block down, getting stuck in the floor. You should write features by text, desirable beforehand.
The block placement gets cancelled when the player dies. It's especially notable in level 1. I was wondering, why can't I place a block, thought I follow the instruction. The player needs to act fast, and it's not recommended in puzzle games.
Another little bug: when you buy a block by dragging the icon, but don't place it (like by draging TNT to an empty space), it remains bought and your money gets spent.
Anyway, good luck improving this game! It looks promisable.

A pause button is a decent idea, but the tile you're holding being taken away is deliberate. Some of the levels were designed with timing in mind.

I figured if someone was buying a tile by clicking the icon, they actually wanted to buy and keep it.

Also, some of the levels have red herrings, but my fiancee was able to beat the final level without using half of the resources provided, so yeah: testing is good! I sort of ran out of time to do more things with all of the elements of the game, so yeah: some blocks are used better than others.

For those of you having issues running it, sorry! I just had Processing spit out all of the desktop versions it can handle, but I'll see if I can solve anything.

Finally, I'm really curious as to why this isn't an original concept. Like, where else has this been done? I'm not having a huge crisis over the originality of this idea, but if it's been done before, I should take a look at those games to make sure I learn from them and/or do something more original.

Thanks so much for the feedback, everyone!

The character runs needlessly fast - slow things down, add a pause too, add more guidance for players getting stuck, and you'll have a fun game. (I fear you got rather used to the controls after 48 hours of development, but for some of us, accurate dragging and dropping is quite a challenge - and it's a shame for the game to be rendered so difficult to play for some as a result!)

This game has a lot of potential in my opinion, but you should have the option to pause the Game in order to place tiles... I found it too hard to place the tiles in time on my laptop...

I like the idea of the game, but there seems to be a problem with the character moving to quickly, and the level reloading before you can put something down. Interesting concept, though. I'd love to see a post-compo version

I really like the idea and would love to see it developed further, but I don't like that you lose the block you're holding when the character dies. Makes things needlessly frustrating, especially on a laptop trackpad.

It might be better to have a pause/play button to control the character's movement? I found the constant jumping noise really annoying.

I made it to level 5 before stopping. You should really keep working on this, it shows a lot of promise!

Interesting idea.

This game would have been a less frustrating with a pause button. Also, what does this have to do with the theme?

The clickign and dragging is downright frustrating, i found myself often knowing what to do but simply not being able to drag it in place quickly enough, would have been more fun if there was keyboard controls to select what to place so i could just concentrate on clicking. I don't really see much of the theme though, seems more like you're trying to be the good guy by letting him get to the end of the level.
