Cool gameplay concept! Would be great if you were able to extend an already existing bridge. It seemed like it always started a new bridge for me.

I like the idea of pushing enemies to make your way around you should play with that more and I think you have a solid mechanic :)

Man, i loved the building bricks with efficiency part and im so much into this because its pretty innovative. This could be the next fortnite but in 2d with like 6 months development and some multiplayer addition...but im getting aheda of myself..Also, im looking forward to your creation in future just keep us posted, share your twitter handle or so so we can stay connected/udpated! :D

@karanveer You're actually not the only one suggesting multiplayer :smile: but I probably won't add that, as the code is such a mess. I do have twitter, but don't actually tweet stuff. maybe I should...

I'm probably gonna do an update after the jam, adding more levels and fixing bugs, but I don't know if I'll do any polish (like particles or sounds) as I don't have that much motivation for such a small game.

The brick laying mechanic is cool and innovative. However, I found the platforming itself to be a little frustrating I think mostly because of the players momentum, and a lack of jump grace period. Regardless, very neat entry!

Nice game you got there! I realized I suck in platform games! :D But i thought the mechanics were pretty nice, ive never seen sone like that. The placing in front of you type of thing but not being able to extend an existing bridge made things even more difficult for me personally. I tried jumping and placing the brick as i was mid-air but always would actually block my way, and no mention that it was a bad idea cause i ran out of bricks and couldn't jump back to get them to continue.
but that was my experience
I actually liked the concept a lot.
I need to find the stars
