Keep up the good work!
Cool game anyhow. It's a simple but effective idea I can see be plenty of fun with 2 players. Maybe I'll play it again sometime with my sister...
player 2: uhm me....
crying myself to sleep every night oWo :dog: :dog:
simple nice game btw :D
And mad props to the voice acting too :)))
Two ways to improve it reduce the time of the game (2min is a bit long) and then decrease the time between piece spawn.
It felt like the best strategy was to keep propping stuff up against a wall, which led to less interesting play over time. It would have been cool to have options to make my opponents life more challenging :P
Overall I love that you explored one mechanic and got something quite polished. Props!
Nice game though!
Now that LD45 has ended I have decided to uploaded a new version of the game. I have in this new version of the game tried to improve the game based on some of your feedback. You can try the version of the game here https://jk5000.itch.io/the-drop-to-the-top
