Water Reel Eef

A puzzle game where you direct water to water tank.
I recommend reading the in-game info at the start.

Controls might feel odd at times.

Enjoy!

Some fixes (24th Oct 2026):
- Fixes to prevent crashes (start of water drain, reconnecting water)
- Fix to prevent crashing when removing pipes mid-flow
- Limiting simultaneous sounds to save ears

Oh snap, I forgot to make it public...! @jarno go ahead, give it another try.

Managed to win after the second try! The graphics and visual effects are great, but one thing I found a bit annoying is having to place new pipes next to existing ones, which makes planning ahead more difficult. Overall, a nice little game!

Good puzzle game.

I like that you can fight the randomness of the given pipes by making other path.

This makes unesserary funny loops, but hey it's a game and it's all about having fun !

The flow system is good, i didn't enconter bugs.

Music is calm, a little repetitive but it's okay.

Good game !

I had a great time making pipes! I really love the art and theming of the game, with the old aesthetic and the rags to repair. I ended up bugging the water flow when leaks starting breaking out, but I had a good time building pipes before that!

This game is really satisfying and relaxing caught me fix the pipeline for 15 minutes straight, great job !!!!

There's a vibe I like. However, you could have started with a way smaller map. Step one of gameplay was taking a lot of time doing a path. Then launching water, repairing, closing (by the way I freezed the game by closing at one point), repairing. You could have mixed the two phase.

Don't trully understand how you should play but win first try anyways ! 😄
Good art, lofi music to help thinking, i take the time to do a full pipeline setup before letting water spread and constantly use of tape and hope.
A good little game.

@zectalier Thanks for playing! I understand the sentiment and kind of agree as well. But I decided to lean on the 'growing a tree' approach.

@jathurshandev Hey, thanks for playing!

@vandervas-generator Thanks for playing! Can you elaborate on the bug, what were you doing in response to the breaks?

@stanewolfer Thanks for playing!

@tatawanda Yo, thanks for playing! I agree, the map could have started smaller and then expand as you play. It was a consideration I had to scrap. What do you mean by mixing, that the pipes could have started to break immediately when filled? Or forcing the water streams before the piping is done? I guess I just wanted to make sure SOMETHING worked and kept the phases split, haha.

@isline Thanks for playing! Yeah, I realized the controls may cause trouble without proper guidance. Had to whip out the info panel in the last hour to give a chance. Use of right mouse would have been missed by too many.

Nice twist to the classic pipedream game. It is also good that you see the "catalogue" of available pipe pieces so that you can plan ahead. Graphics are very nice and boost the mood of the game. What I was missing was an undo button, and maybe a bit the pressure of building from the original pipedream, where the water starts to flow after some seconds automatically.

For some reasons the music gives me Twin Peaks vibe ☕

This was really fun! I just spent a long time making the tubes, but because the next pieces are chosen randomly, you can never perfectly finish the system. I was trying for a long time, but you always create more problems for yourself XD In the end I had only on open end and I decided that it was good enough and to just let the water go. I really enjoyed this part as well. Slowly but surely everywhere things were going wrong and I had to decide what places were most critical to fix. Both parts were really fun and they complemented each other beautifully. I really enjoyed this one! Really well done ^.^

@CodeRaurus - After the pipes were cracking and I was running out of rags, I tried breaking some of the pipes and the water got stuck, and wouldn't start to flow again.

The puzzle mechanic here is really clever; I love how the requirement to manage the water flow adds a whole layer of difficulty. Using the available catalogue of pipe pieces definitely allows you to plan routes efficiently. Great job making a calm but challenging experience!

Excellent design! Build your water pipe system and then use pressure to continuously prompt players to modify the pipes. The random pipe components enable players to fully unleash their imagination.

@harujam Thanks for playing! Undo could be nice. At least you can remove parts.

@aleksey-salion Huh, I see. Thanks for playing!

@wuppos Thanks for playing, glad you liked it!

@vandervas-generator Ah, yeah. That likely breaks things. I'll be looking into that.

@eugenik Happy to hear you enjoyed the slow pace. Thanks for playing!

@peng665 Thanks for playing!
