Reviews for "Less is More?"

Good puzzle game

i like this game very simple concept with a rock, paper, scissors feel to it
lava destroys sand, sand dries water, and water cools lava it took me a moment to figure out the objective but i got it nice game nothing fancy though 3.5/5 extra o.5 for originality

A very creative submission that is in the rare genre of sandbox games. The physics engine is interesting, to say the least.

I do wish that levels were more than just box structures, even with the theme of minimalism. Minimalism should always enhance gameplay, not limit creativity or in this case level design, and I think you kind of boxed yourself in with the boxes, pun fully intended.

Also, level selection when there are levels is always good.

I want to say that due to these bits, you didn't fully meet the level of ambition and polish needed for a truly stellar game despite the creativity of the concept and the fun physics engine. Still, a neat little gem in a rare genre that is worth taking a look at.

Thanks for your feedback, well, i had to design all levels in less than 4-5 hours, and to be faithful to theme I chose a "mondrianish" style. That's also the reason for the level-editor, i know it's possible to achieve very creative things with this idea, look at the Zivs levels for example. If the game is well received an many plays it i'll consider to make a more polished sequel, maybe a smartphone/tablet version.

Weird game... But interesting, But doesnt provide much instructions

eh... I apparently set a level I was making a few times without hitting the submit button !!! (unless I hit it as I was hitting the try button, which is in the same spot.)

Anyways.... The level creator is nice, but It would be nice if blocks did not move around when I try to place them. Can be a small pain when you delete a block by mistake, and see them all start moving everywhere.

Also, the water (blue blocks) seems way to random to me. One minute it keeps hitting the lava (red blocks) and not going though it; then later, it finally stops going back and forth and goes though it.

Besides that, I've been having fun playing this game.

Thanks for the feedback :)
Let me know which level you want to keep and i'll delete the others.
I uploaded a new version, now you can pause the game pressing P (and place them quietly)
