PLAY IN FULL SCREEN for better experience

WARNING: IN LINUX IT DOES NOT WORK WITH FIREFOX

How to Play : click on an object once to grab it, click a 2nd time to drop it. try to stack object faster than the increasing required height (red line). Your record is saved (white line) so it it gives you time to rebuild your tower if it collapses.

The game is more like a stress test of the game engine we are building. Especially the physic engine, with shapes that are not convex and differences of masses between objects going up to a factor 100. It was also a way to test the export of a build to web format, with a project including visual assets, music, sound effect, using both the physics and the UI libraries of our game engine. Making this "game" allowed us to find many bugs in the engine, some of which we fixed during the jam, some others we didn't (because 48h is quite a short amount of time), but most of them were fixed afterward.
