Good execution and fits the unstable theme well!
Also loved the cute artstyle
On a more serious note, the gameplay is actually pretty fun, and I especially liked the swaying of the elephant on the tightrope when you change the weight balance of the structure, it felt really responsive. I stacked up till 33 meters, mostly using vertical snakes and nailed planks (sorry snakes).
My only grouse was that when you try put an object back down onto the cliff it sometimes falls into the abyss anyway, which was a bit annoying. It would also have been nice to have specific sounds for each object, like a squishy sound when placing the heart, for example.
Great work, and I had a good laugh and some meditative fun :)
Good job!
The biggest issue I noticed was that often when I tried to connect objects my browser sent me to another tab (maybe it's just my browser that's weird though)
Overall a really great job!
Great entry!
