great pipe placing game! I don't know if the game's balanced... but nice game nonetheless!!!

I sucked a lot the first few times, but once I got the hang of it the game became a lot more fun. My strat was to dumping ground for parts I would try and use later. But didn't really fit my plans in the moment. Great work! Maybe some sound effects could have really brought it to the next level. But alas, that all takes and we don't have time for everything.

Nice implementation of a classic game concept. My score was 76! Definitely nailed the tension of continually approaching water. Good job!

Got 56!

Simple idea and fits the theme well. I love how I am able to plan ahead with the pipes, placing pipes that I can't use at that moment elsewhere so that I could use them later.

Would have loved some sounds in the game.

Good job!

Kinda too hard for me I guess. Got 20 in the end!

Nice work!

Scored 98 points by the 7th attempt. Simple, yet catchy. Firstly I thought the water progresses too quickly, but in hindsight, I think it is quite balanced.

Cool game! It's simple but it works, I was surprised at first that you can't rotate the pieces but that's what makes it challenging. The only thing I don't really like is the time pressure that pushes you to go quick instead of thinking, I wonder if it could work with a turn-by-turn progression, or if it would be boring. Keep up the good work!

Gets challenging really quickly but a fun time overall. Surprised by how long I played it. Nice entry :)

This fit the theme really well, and I definitely felt the pressure when I found out that I couldn't rotate the pieces. I really liked how this game made me think about my strategy both for the water path and for what to do with the pieces I didn't want right away. It felt well-balanced, and had a good mix of randomness and strategy/skill. My high score was 70; I really enjoyed this one and wanted to keep playing! Great job!

This pipe placing game really fits the game. It is fun to play and you really feel that the end is near. Well done!

Great! At first I thought not being able to rotate was a detriment, but it's definitely a lot better without it! Only improvement I could think would be an endless scroller? unless it does do that once you get far enough :') Great submission!

Great idea for the theme and nice execution! I think just some simple kind of click sound when placing a pipe would be a nice addition
