Brilliant concept for a game! Addicting.

If you continue this project, add in a free-play mode and see what kind of ridiculous setups people come up with.

Really great game! I loved the little arms. Some more levels and a some more puzzle mechanics and this could be a full fledged game!

Simple concept and great polish for a game made in such a short time.

Great Job!

I thought there are only 100 bricks for all levels. Found out it isn't in level 7

Good concept! I would love a sandbox mode of this! I was having a lot of trouble with camera movement for the later levels that required more camera manipulation. Sometimes it seems to glitch out away from the dominos so I just have to restart.

Great idea. The exploding crown is a nice touch to make the game just complex enough. I like how the relatively coarse placement grid saves the player from obsessing over precise placement.

Bugs: My camera became mostly stuck once and the cursor was a cancel sign when I tried to move it. Level 9 seems to be a duplicate of level 8. I have no sound.

Nice game! Was fun to play and try to optimize the placement of the bricks in the level.

Idea & execution are on point. The dominoes are also pretty cute. Nicely done :)

Great arcade game with much levels implemented, well done !
There is also an humoristic ambiance well integrated, and a coherent graphic universe. Everything of this is not easy to do as the same time in a jam, then gg ! :)

That was lovely.

The game didn't seem to have any game breaking bugs. The music loop was pleasant without becoming annoying. The dominos had some personality to them which set the mood in a way that I think just placing bland dominos would have hurt the game's mood. Chaining the detonation of the kings is a satisfying mechanic. The game length in terms of number of levels available is good, and pretty easy to expand upon if this project should continue.

The gameplay trailer was a good addition. Had a good idea of what I was in for before even accessing the game.

If there was anything at all to nitpick on, perhaps the camera rotation speed seemed a bit slow to me. But maybe that's just my mouse?

Kudos, this is a very fun game!

Loved this, it's so fun to come up with solutions and then watch the mayhem of falling dominoes. Graphics and audio are great, really high quality. I could see myself playing this on a tablet for hours so if you ever make a release on mobile platforms please let me know :smile:

Nice one! The scene navigation controls are a bit uncomfortable (especially the rotation). Interesting idea. P.S. the trailer is great!

This game is quite cool !
The little dude animations are enjoyable, noises and music are cool, the game works, doesn't contain a lot of bugs, it's quite fun and goals are varied
I find it amazing that you made this game alone, so you deserve a good vote ^^

I think the "aim" for placing out dominoes was abit hacky? if you make it feel abit better when placing out dominoes this could be a fun game (:

A tutorial in game would've been appreciated although by now I'm sure most people check description for them so it's fine. Good game overall, well done! would've liked to see some more polished navigation but besides that everything was nice.

Fun and very well polished for 48 hours! The domino arms and faces really make it. Impressive number of levels too

I liked the game, the mood is really cute. I think it has a great potential and could be a really cool game on is own with some little things like a better camera (i think it would be great for the graphics and easier to understand the distances with an isometric camera),some level design with more difference between them and also a better UI with graphics that are more in the cute universe you have (totally understand the lack of time). I really hope you will do something with this game :)
