Block Away by Nerketur

made by Nerketur for LD 40 (JAM)

EDIT: Updated with a bugfix. Both versions still available. fixed by restarting Unity, then rebuilding

Simple game, move the player and collect boxes. Enjoy, but try not to make a mess of things :P

The more of each block you have, the worse it gets. easy to figure out why after playing for a bit. Can you beat it without collecting anything but yellow blocks?

I did not create the music, or the main menu layout (free from unity app store) I did create the sound effects with the help of sfxr

I will most likely release the source code later today.

The only thing truly missing is the boss is a bit anticlimatic. Will fix after Ludum Dare

Cute game that needs a little bit more work/refinement. It wasn't easy to understand what the point of the game was. Was it to pick up only yellow? Didn't see any diff if I picked up other colours? The ball would be better if it actually rolled (graphically) but the feel or a rolling ball was there though! Also not sure where a boss battle should come in or how that would work, but it does sound interesting. Well done!

Hmm, fairly fun to play, a bit simple maybe feels like its needs an extra dimension.

I liked the mood, the music was calming and the mechanics felt really smooth. I wasn't completely sure what to do, but I picked up 35 yellow ones and things got real hectic.. I liked the rolling physics, maybe if there were just a little more explanation or a hint, but good job otherwise!
