This is so well done and polished, well done!

Played until level 2, and perhaps i found a bug, purple blocks seemed impossible to lift :C

this is a pretty good game. gets really repetitive after a while, but over all a good game.

Very nice entry! I felt that placing the blocks felt a little awkward at times, maybe some sort of indicator would be helpful. I ended up playing quite a bit of that!

Graphics and music are super cute <3. Gameplay is interesting and feels mostly polished (I had a couple of issues dropping blocks and landing further away), but I felt that progression was a bit slow.

Great job!

I liked the music and the visuals. For some reason the text on Time, Level and Score were not showing up. And unfortunately for me, as a colorblind, I had trouble finding the correct block most of the time. Overall it was a cute and fun little game! I hate it when they run away though. Haha. :)

Great job! Orange and pink are a little close for me to tell apart sometimes, but the game is executed very well!

That was fantastically fun but it could use a little more difficulty ramp I think.

Great concept!

The graphics are cute, both the sprites and the title card for the game are really well done and set the mood right away with just a single look.

Nice take on the Tetris theme for the soundtrack, it completes the mood in a pretty nice way, the sound fx are also nicely handled and balanced within the game.

Controls are pretty much solid and responsive, and gameplay is pretty smooth, though sometimes I had (very few) issues placing/lifting blocks.

One point I think that would improve the game and, also, make it a bit more accessible is a colorblind mode or colorblind-friendly sprites. I'm not fully colorblind, but I have some issues with color and sometimes light green and yellow tones, for example, become a bit hard to distinguish.

Overall, brilliant idea! :) Cheers!

Wow, the presentation on this game was A+. Loved the music and graphics. Very nice game in general. I encountered a weird bug where I sometimes couldn't lift blocks. Also the way setting down blocks worked didn't always seem consistent.

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

very nice entry!

one minor issue: for me it would have been easier if the blocks are place relative to the block i carry and not relative to the player who often is "one block off".

A game with really cute graphics and audio. Also loved how it really works well with the controls. The only feedback that I can give is to make the drop to the floor that we are on, instead of in front of the duck. I would love to play it more! :)
