This is game about stacking different shaped objects. There will be a point where stacked objects will be UNSTABLE and fall. The question is, how high or how many objects can you pile on top of each other before it falls. Come and try the game out !!! and place your name on the leaderboard!! :)

My second Ludum Dare Jam. Always fun to participate in this jam.

It took me a moment to figure out that it's WASD+Space to move stuff.
I do like that you can choose which piece you want, it adds some choice to the formula!
Overall though, it's a very cohesive experience, good job! An online leaderboard adds a lot to score-based games like this, and I ended up playing several more rounds than I expected in order to make it onto the leaderboard - Great job adding that in :)
I found the music a little repetitive though.
Overall the game is fun, good sound design, good idea, good job i like it.
Nonetheless, I kept coming back for more. Desperately wanting to stack them up. (got 4th place in the end) :)
Well done!
Good job!
I wasn't quite sure what to do going in blind.
Looked good thou, once i got the hang was a solid all round game.
Nice job!

Like the inclusion of different game modes.
A way to rotate a piece would help a lot with the game feel of the game.
Minor gripe is that the 'grabbing' of blocks feels a bit finnicky sometimes. It would have been also nice to have a few 'upgrades' or special powerups in there. Glue blob? Shrink ray? :)
I like that you put leaderboards on there, it is a nice reward and good to see what to aim for.
@beats , hahaha, sorry, I will check on that.
However, the game does not seem to register such blocks properly, sometimes they do not count towards height, this should be 10 mts I believe, but the game thinks it is only 5.2, the arrow is in the wrong place, and my ship is not high enough to place any more blocks:

And sometimes flipping blocks vertically causes the height to increase even though I have not even placed anything in the center of the map yet.


very helpful.
Excellent graphics & sound!
Great job!
