You're a small 'Thing' that was awaken by the goods~ They are furious with the lack of faith of the people. Your're the one who can save the land from the Wrath of the Gods, and you do that by building PYRAMIDS.
Every time you play the world will be different and the events randomized. So you can try next time if the luck was not by your side.
------------------------------||Tutorial||-------------------------------- :: The pyramids are built like this: 8 sand blocks and 1 pyramid black and white block:
------[p] ------[s] ---[s][s][s] [s][s][y][s][s]
y - pyramid black and white block s - sand yellow block p - player(press 's' to shoot yourself up ^)
(ignore '-' just spacing the blocks)
:: There's a counter with a beetle that show's the remaining time for the next spawn of an enemy.
:: Build your pyramids and manage the terrain in the meantime.(you can place and pick up blocks with spacebar)
:: Shoot yourself up and hit the beetles to collect the coins and gain points!

ChangeLog a1.0.2 (release at 29/08/2016);
-New Music added -some SoundEffects -Improved menu. -minor bugs fixed. -'M' Togle Music
Wow this was really awesome! The usage of tile physics was really cool! Once I figured out I had to build pyramids to launch everything sorta clicked! The art and the music could be better but as a whole this game is great! The gameplay is really unique!
Like, I can see the idea here, and can appreciate the tile physics, but even after looking at the instructions multiple times, it took me a while to figure out how to control the game or what to do. Work more on the player feedback, and you might have an enjoyable little arcade game. As it stands, the game is pretty impenetrable.
Slightly confusing at first but managed to do so in the end. Quite humorous though there were random graphics glitches throughout the game. Idk if they're because of the game or just my computer being stupid.
@peterthehe OH that's a really rare bug that sometimes happens with the spwan of blocks dropped by the Beetles. I think in the next version "pos compo" i'm working on this will be fixed.

Hi, nice game and congratulations ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #36. We made the same thing at the previous jam.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free) So we can include also your game in the video ;) p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description.
Ok, at first I had no idea what was going on, the controls were confusing! But when I finally understood what I had to do, it actually became quite fun! It was a little stressful managing the tiles, it felt hard to drain all the water when I had 99 blocks of it. I had a lot of fun building stuff. I got a score of 4 on my last try. Good job!
That had a pretty steep curve for something so simple, but I finally managed to kill a beetle.
This could've been more accessible with some tweaks to how the build mode works, maybe have it always active and just press a key to place/pick up a block where you are facing, removing the arrow or WASD keys all together. More keys, more confusion :)

WASD move
Left mouse button places or removes a block
1-4 switches blocks
Space jumps
S launches
Most people are accustomed to using WASD for movement while using the mouse for precision, such as placing or removing blocks in games like these
