1) it would be nice to be able to rebind controls for non-qwerty users (and everyone else). It's hard to use wasd instead of zqsd for most people and I can't type the squiggly line on my keyboard.
2) if this isn't already in the DLC, maybe an option for daytime?you can just add it to the dlc too, it would be a nice feature to show people that this isn't just a unity physics engine but more like a "game" that can be a lot of fun!.
3) extend the time speed option to 10. this is just something I kinda want when trying huge structures because of my crappy pc. I know that this would decrease the accuracy but being able to do it would
please tell me if any of these things are already in the DLC.
I would love to see the game get a bit more customisable in the future, but it's still a really fun(ny) game though!
I hope that you don't see this comment as negative (which I don't think you will)
one final question: are you still working on the game or is this the final version? (other than some bugfixes maybe)
hmmm. I can start the game but as soon as i click, one of the red cubes shows up, but there is no physics to anything. Dynamite goes off, but has no effect even at max power, anybody know a fix? do i need to download more files around her
EDIT: I fixed it by going back to some previous drivers.
I have the same problem. Run the Tower.exe, get a small unity window with the red ! in the upper left corner and a red progress bar at the bottom, then it closes. Modest PC: 3.4GHz Phenom II X4 965, 16GB RAM, 2GB GTX 950, Windows 10. no log file or other error info I can find.
I am aware some people have issues. Can you please send a mail to support@itch.io with your account and game page. If they are unsuccessful at solving the problem contact me via mail: nothke@gmail.com
I have been looking for this type of game for a while, absolutely love it, great work! I love the code aspect of the game too but I think you should keep the sliders in some form or another as it would keep the game accessible to more people. Especially as I expect this to blow up (pun intended) as I happened upon this through a fairly big youtuber, Drae. Definitely recommend it, again fantastic work!
Thanks a lot for the feedback! It made me happy hearing that the kids enjoyed it!
Yeah, I understand that sliders are really cool. I am going to look into an ability to automatically add sliders for designated parameters. So when you execute the code, the parameters get detected and turned into sliders. So you get the slider fun from any code :)
For the wind, yes, I didn't really spend much time tweaking the min-max values :( I think that the value might actually need to be exponential, as it's too sensitive to little wind, but it's actually kinda fun with very strong winds too.

Great game! (don't have the DLC... yet?)
here is some constructive feedback :)

Alt+Shift is what you want for 1). Changes your keyboard to qwerty/azerty and just using it again changes it again.
nope, that changes keyboard language. you can download language packs in your settings

That is really strange. what kind of drivers did you revert?
i cant play it, i downloaded it in itch and click launch but it says tower.exe has error and fails
It's possible the game is not compatible with your PC. The app requires a 64bit system. What are your specs?
64bit,i believe.when i load it the unity icon appears with a red box with a ! inside on the top left corner.

The log file should be in
C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Nothke\Tower\Player.log, if it exists can you please send it to nothke@gmail.com?Should be in your inbox now, thanks
how did u use havok physics in unity?
these physics are from unity
There is a new Havok physics package that uses the new DOTS tech. You can learn a bit about it here.
I paid but never got the email (only just got one from paypal saying that i paid for it) and i can't find the game on my account
I am aware some people have issues. Can you please send a mail to support@itch.io with your account and game page. If they are unsuccessful at solving the problem contact me via mail: nothke@gmail.com
Paid but never got OwO
Hi, that could be an issue with Itch. Send me a mail to nothke@gmail.com
i don't understand how to open the game i bought and downloaded it but it wont let me open it
download WINRAR or 7Zip to extract the files :)
thanks I figured It out it's laggy but still fun
Either unpack or alternatively you can use the itch app, it will help you handle downloading and playing.

WOW very nice little thing....Perhaps its possible to add floors with ceilings for more fun ;)
Great updates! This gets more fun :)
what a fun little sandbox it is. Would love to see Towers that are filled up with bricks (like a pillar)^^
This is a lot of fun to screw around with. I'd love to see an Earthquake button that just shakes the tower a bit.
And what is "speed of sound" do? Does the game have sound? (Not for me ATM.)
No, there's no sound yet, "speed of sound" currently just affects the speed of shockwave of the explosions.
I want to add sound at some point. Experimenting with procedural sound at the moment.
Great to hear. That would be the icing on the cake. :)
Wind is broken? It blows forever with same strength even if set to zero.
I love this game by the way. Really, a lot of fun.
I'd love more shapes though.
Strange, setting gain to 0 of both wind types should eliminate the wind. I'll test that
So much fun!
Maybe I am missing, but no quit button? And alt-f4 broken. Have to kill the process in Task Manager.
Hmmm, alt-F4 should work. It-works-on-my-machine™. I'll add a proper quit option for the next update.

All coming in the update this evening :) Btw, you can already change flying speed by scrolling.
Space/ctrl to raise and lower the camera would also be welcome!
Those are strange keys for up/down :D What inspires you?
Nice!!
Epic StoreUplay version when?Sorry, this is 99 years itch.io exclusive.
Typical itch buying out indie devs.
So good! Watching a tower collapse in slow motion is just beautiful, artistic and satisfying.
I agree. Why is this so much fun? I love it.
Any plans on Linux/does this work well with wine?
