Tower Crane

A casual game about building a tower, made for Gamedev.js Jam. This is my 2nd attempt at making a game. There is no victory or defeat, you can drop as many blocks as you want, and if you somehow make it to space, you can consider yourself a tower building expert. Recommended to play with sound and a cup of tea.

The source for this project is available on GitHub (open source challenge) and there's a Windows exe build available in the downloads below on itch.

Controls

WASD or Arrow Keys - Move crane around

Space - Grab block at crane hook

Q, E - Rotate held block

Escape - Pause / Restart

Theme - "Balance"

The game implements the balance theme in many ways:

• Literally balancing blocks/props...
• Do you choose patience or rush when placing blocks?
• Do you carefully pick your blocks or do you place anything that comes your way?
• Do you build a solid foundation or do you make a mess?
• etc
