Still didn't quite understand what I was doing, after reading your description it still felt a bit unclear.\n\nStill, a pretty great job and those 3D models must've been pretty hard to do.

There's lots of room for great polish here like some effects and sounds when dropping blocks. Also maybe a hover that explains what each block does so I don't have to alt+tab out of the game to check the instructions on the Ludum Dare game page.\n\nYou could even make a set of puzzle levels out of this concept that have a starting set-up and a solution rather than just an infinite level.\n\nGood work.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Harry Alissavakis","author_uid":"1011986","time":"2020-04-21T16:39:58Z","epoch":1587487198,"modified":1587487198,"text":"Nice idea and interpretation of the theme! I had some trouble figuring out what the blocks do but after that it was a pretty straightforward and nice experience. I have to say that I took advantage of an exploit, as repeatedly dropping a random block on an empty patch will eventually make a new tree. I was fairly proud to discover that, even though I don't think it was intentional.

I like the clean art and the music fitted the game nicely.\nI found it somewhat counter-intuitive that a heavy block could destroy a healthy tree but not a dead and dried one. But I totally understand why that is from the game mechanics standpoint :).\n\nOverall, a really good work.\n\nPS. You should include the web build in your Downloads and Links section, so people can know right away that you have one!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"ben657","author_uid":"1006080","time":"2020-04-24T12:13:38Z","epoch":1587730418,"modified":1587730418,"text":"I like it, i'm not normally one for puzzle-style games but this kept me hooked for a while!

I think this is the type of game where keyboard controls would be a nice addition (and maybe it would have been even easier to implement than the drag-and-drop), with the numbers 1-3 selecting the block, and a cursor moved on the field by arrows. Just an idea to consider for a post-jam version :)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Teto","author_uid":"1186511","time":"2020-04-25T17:29:17Z","epoch":1587835757,"modified":1587835757,"text":"A nice puzzle game with cute graphics and a nice idea. For further development, maybe make it a little smarter with what blocks are given rather than completely random since it is quite annoying when you only have the black boxes and 2 fully watered trees. The graphics were lovely though and the music was relaxing and didn't feel loopy of annoying. Possibly added additional sound effects\/animations would improve the feedback from actions and make it a little more engaging but overall, nice job!","likes":2,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld46\/192126-57e8fbe1a12adeb7f9ae0e49b3d87946.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/misternectherlouie.itch.io\/blocks-n-trees-ld46","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"https:\/\/misternectherlouie.itch.io\/blocks-n-trees-ld46","text":"Youtube"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"63977","g_author":"1143495","g_event":"LD46","g_eventkey":"77","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"279788","g_title":"Blocks 'n Trees","g_status":"PVT1","g_place":"1826","g_commentcount":"13","g_site2_node_id":"192126","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"192126","n_urlkey":"279788","n_parent":"176557","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/46\/blocks-n-trees","n_slug":"blocks-n-trees","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"143495","n_created":"1587152182","n_modified":"1587469694","n_version":"614911","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":192126,"parent":176557,"superparent":9,"author":143495,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2020-04-21T00:58:13Z","created":"2020-04-17T19:36:22Z","modified":"2020-04-21T11:48:14Z","version":614911,"slug":"blocks-n-trees","name":"Blocks 'n Trees","body":"Blocks 'n Trees is a puzzle game where you need to keep the trees alive by dragging blocks with different behaviours onto the trees.\n\nHOW TO PLAY:\nDrag the blocks towards any tree and drop it.\nKeep the trees alive by dropping different types of blocks onto them.\nYou have 5 types of blocks\n- Water Block - Restores 2 hearts of any tree\n- Sun Block - Restores 1 heart of all the trees alive\n- Seed Block - Plants a tree in a blank patch\n- Heavy Block - Removes a tree\n- Random Block - Does any of the first four\n\nYou cannot plant and tree if there is a dead tree already.
