This is absolutely delightful. The physics are so good!

mattround.com•3 days ago

Thanks! It's deliberately unrealistic with some of the physics properties to make it more fun, eg planck.js doesn't allow for compressible objects but it turns out if you make things less dense then they get squished more when it's resolving big complex/heavy piles of stuff

I’m standing pigs on top of one another, which is hilarious but only gets me to around 6.5 max

Great game. Are the items it chooses to give you decided at the beginning of the game or each level?

mattround.com•3 days ago

It's not adaptive or predetermined, it's random as it goes along, with some rules about how things are chosen so it's biased towards more pallets, awkward items don't appear after a certain stage, & you get fewer items after a certain stage
I tried more controlled sets of items & it got boring

Great name, great artwork, great fun 😍

Should there be sound? I don’t seem to be getting any for some reason.

mattround.com•3 days ago

Yeah there should be unless you've somehow got it turned down or switched apps then returned (which sometimes kills the audio)
Do you get audio in other stuff on the site like Penga?
What browser & OS?

theunfinished.bsky.social•3 days ago

I thought so. Yeah, I’m getting sound on good old Dog Poo Golf.

I’m on an iPhone 13. Latest o/s I assume.

theunfinished.bsky.social•3 days ago

The sound box is ticked on Styscraper too.

theunfinished.bsky.social•3 days ago

Ah, weird! After I cam out of DPG and went back into Styscraper, the sound was working! :P

9.46m on my first go! I might retire now… :P

theunfinished.bsky.social•3 days ago

Like a fool, I did not retire.

10.18m now my best attempt. Damn those traffic cones!!!

Broke the 10m barrier! So proud of myself.

shazzoir.bsky.social•2 days ago

I so suck at this, only got to 6m, but in only four tries, so... guess I'll keep on pig-headedly (haha) trying to rise above the muck. It's p damn cute, Matt. Top marks. :)

I love the way you can cantilever, too!

Features wonderful illustration work by @dochackenbush.bsky.social

This is lovely stuff, thank you! What is your high score?

mattround.com•3 days ago

21.60 since I finalised the physics, but I usually can't get anywhere near that & was lucky with items I got (I've got a screenshot somewhere, might post it later but don't want to put people off trying!)

davemc99.bsky.social•3 days ago

Noice! I'm on 10.56 at the moment but hoping for better! There goes my afternoon's work! 🐽

mattround.com•3 days ago

Not spotted anyone beating my high score yet...

barbarossa69.bsky.social•3 days ago

It's pretty hard!! What's your highscore?

mattround.com•3 days ago

21.60 since I finalised the physics, but usually don't get anywhere near that, was lucky with item selection & managed to dump binbags off to one side etc
The key is to look for combinations of items that will bring things level & use pallets to brace the structure

barbarossa69.bsky.social•3 days ago

I shall keep trying! :D

My best is 8.87 so far...

barbarossa69.bsky.social•3 days ago

Make that 11.56
