The King Likes Towers

Build your tower from random blocks to the specifications of a demanding king. Random blocks appear that you must place to reach the height specified for the king.

Each level provides a harder and harder challenge.

Controls

I only had time for mouse and keyboard sorry

Block Movement

• A - move blocks left
• D - move blocks right
• S - speed up the descent
• W - slow down the descent

Block Rotation

Theme

The tie into the theme is pretty obvious. Wanted to explore the idea of having a physics based tower builder.

Wildcards

• DID YOU KNOW - The king, will spin a yarn, and tell you about building, people and places, and all about towers. Especially, about towers.
• WARP SPEED - On the list, but I wanted selectable blocks that you could move and warp into the next up selection. Which is also not implemented.
• WILDCARD - Umm.... I'm sure I could squint at the list and come up with something, but I didn't target this one either.

Could be Better

A list of things that I just simply ran out of time for (not a complete list either).

• Weather effects that might provide some stability challenges.
• Invaders, armies, and other trouble makers
• Other kinds of objectives.
• Sound effects
• Special portal blocks
• Destroy random blocks
• Birds can land and crash into the tower
• Accessibility controls
• Controller and gamepad support
• BUG: special characters got into some of the messages.
• BUG: The objective and level text doesn't update at the right times
