This game was made on a personal challenge to develop and release one game every 2 weeks on my spare time around school and work. I generate a random theme prompt to poll ideas from, and the theme for this game was "Fragile". You can read more about this game here.

Very cool game! Lovely to see you progressing.

I really like the art. Music, color palette and models come together nicely in a real "chill" vibe (pun intended). Really nice and relaxing to play through.

I like simple puzzles, so this one was right up my alley. It would make a great mobile game in my opinion. You have a very neat core mechanic ("stuff breaks") and I like the low pressure, feel-good sensation that stems from the fact the the puzzles have multiple solutions each. Most of them are also highly modular, so you get a lot of satisfaction from solving the "sub-puzzles" while working through the big picture stuff.
