Wob the (Wobbly) Builder by korfi

[raw]
made by korfi for Ludum Dare 49 (JAM)

In this wobbly, modern take on the classic Tetris you play as Wob the builder. In this game you play as Wob, who are in charge of constructing a series of buildings, in different locations. Make sure that the buildings are standing at the end of the level, it might be a bit unstable!

Are you able to finish all the levels?

Move the blocks using the left-arrow and right-arrow, or A and D. Speed up the descent with the down-arrow or S.

Pretty fun! Glad it didn't mind all my 1x1 windows getting rotated 90 degrees!

Nice twist on stacking games. I'd appreciate if the camera was looking up a bit more on the web version since about the bottom quarter of the screen is just the road.

Fun game! Enjoyed the progression and it was a pleasant surprise that after houses you could build a greek thing magic with collumns. The music was a bit of letdown.

it gets pretty hard at the end but very fun

Cool little physics game.
It would be nice see the current block in the feed, because there's no way to tell if you're currently holding a foundation block or not.
Also, the mute audio button stops working after starting the game and returning to the menu.

Looks fun. Unfortunately, the html version won't run and I don't have access to a windows computer.

Fun idea. The later levels are fun and challenging - I think it could have ramped up faster (i.e., skip some of the early easy levels). A couple of bits of wonky physics here and there (I know how it is...!) - there were a couple of times when a piece fell through the foundation and hit the ground, but the game made it up to me in the last level when a piece fell through the ground and didn't trigger the end of the level. I like the graphics but the music is not compelling.

Hmm, that sounds strange. Have you tried using any other web browser? It seemms like some browsers are blocking WebGL as well as some not supporting it at all (as far as I can understand?)

Hey, it's me, you, from a parallel dimension!
Seriously, we made a very similar game (especially your level 7-9):

(not a shameless plug, but a proof of allegiance to the block balancing genre)
Great minds think alike, eh?
Anyways, the true 3D physics add a lot to the tension.
Great game overall!

This was a good play on the classic stacking games that were popular, I enjoyed the different stages it was a great entry well done.

really nice twist on tetris! I actually had the idea to do something similar once I heard the theme... awesome work with all the details ( the UI, the different sets of pieces, music :) )

I like the twist on a classic! It was a little unclear what was a foundation block at first but I figured it out after I failed the first time lol. I feel like this could be expanded into a much larger, complex game. If you do work on it some more, maybe find some more energetic music. Graphic are well done. Good work!

Super fun game. I'd like some sort of display of the wind direction or speed, maybe a windsock or something. Loved the low-poly models, and the UI was great. Nice job! :grin:

Looks cool and nice! Camera could be placed a little bit frontal. But I like this game

Very funny! Really improving and polishing the graphics would be a great game, I hope you keep working on it! In the web version the screen is cut off if you want to continue growing the tower, it is complicated, I think it is a point to improve. good job!
