Tower of Rubble
Description
Build the tallest tower ever(!) out of random stuff thrown out by humans. Stack carefully to avoid a wobbly disaster later down the line, and use dubious human tools and items to help you beat them at their own game. The higher you go, the more shenanigans you'll experience :>
The game features guest appearances from your favorite real life towers, I think the animals aren't great at math though because the measured heights are a bit off... anyways, see if you can get a tower of rubble to rival the Burj Khalifa :)
Controls
wasd/arrow keys - move camera
scroll wheel - scroll up and down
rest is with the mouse clicks :)
To use Items/Acorns, drag them out of their respective workbenches. For an idea of what the items do, you can hover over them for a bit.

Bugs & Glitches
We couldn't catch every bug unfortunately, there's a lot of them in the woods, here's some of the ones that made it through to the Jam Build (with workarounds):
- Passing two targets in one go breaks the target system - congratz to the person who discovered this, flabberghasted at how you managed to do it. But yeah try to avoid passing two targets in one go.
- Glue sometimes makes the blocks fly around - this usually happens when a heavier object (such as a rock) gets glued to a traffic cone. Not much can be done to avoid this, just be cautious when applying it.
- Experimental Pixel mode hides the leaf - play this mode for an even trickier challenge where you don't know how much you have left! (will get fixed after the jam :,))
- Blocks sometimes just collide weird - i found that the best way to avoid this is to be really careful with how you place the blocks. idk i'll have to fix this post build too aha..
Let me know if you find anything else!
