It could be an interesting game, but what keeps me from just making a straight line and going forever? Needs obstacles maybe, old blocks should drop away maybe to make player move. can't see my score.
@turquoise-moon@mechanizedit Unfortunately i had no time to add more content, i thought that a simple modification of the score system could be sufficient but you are right, with some extra mechanics could be much better, thank you for the suggestions!
Nice game! Simple idea - well executed. I like the smart scoring system that stops giving you score if you just build a straight road. Fun sound effects too!
I ran into a bug, where you can build a square field and basically make yourself unable to place blocks any further (if the last block fell into the center of the square). But maybe it should be like this -- you built a dead-end -- you've got a dead-end :smile:
Fun jam. It was interesting to remove rewards for taking the easy route rather than continually increasing rewards for the hard route, although it felt like a somewhat bigger bonus for changing route would be a better incentive. I maxed out each easy route before maxing out the next route, and so on. I like that it is free form in that way though. Also noticed the red cube disappeared when pointing backwards, which was slightly confusing.
Good use of the theme for a unique but simple idea. Good job!
The game gets dull fast when there's no goals other than getting high scores, maybe adding a winning position could further improve the gameplay experience. The ball movements are a bit hard to adjust because it seems to accelerate fast with little deacceleration. Overall a good game, thanks for the submission!
@bgdc Of course adding a winning position can be interesting, in this case the game could be splitted in more increasingly difficult levels, thank you for your feedback!

It just lacks of obstacles so you can't just draw a diagonal and have a good score effortlessly!
