Sky Mason


A brickmason's work is never done. Towers must be built. Bricks must get laid. The opposition is heavy. There are determined environmentalists barring the way. They attack with missiles and infantry, all in the name of nature. Even the birds themselves fly against you, seeking to destroy your tower. But the work must go on. This tower will rise, despite all who try to stop it! It will reach the stars! The world will live in awe of this hastily-constructed tower, because it was made by just one man. That man is you.

Start building immediately, or go check out the Yoyogames version of the contract.

Arrow keys are the new overalls and hard hat of construction, everybody is using them. I suggest that you do as well.
In case you cannot figure out how to lay bricks, you might try pressing Z. Pressing X will not help you get higher. IT WILL NOT. But if you find it useful, good for you, sir!
It only took us three days to create your job application... You are only a mason, after all. But I think you will find it an invigorating job, full of thrills and kills... I mean, uh, bricks! Who doesn't love building? I know I do.

Here are some images of those who worked before you. Slackers, all of them. I fired them. Don't get discouraged and quit on me! I'll make sure you never are hired again!

Don't know why I even hired them. Good luck, sir, you will need it. Because buildings are hard work.

Hi,
Good game!
I suggest you make it open-source. However, that is my opinion.

After playing (and praising!) speedchuck's classic game "Four Pixel!", I decided to give another of his creations a go. I am glad to say I was not disappointed! "Sky Mason" delivers where lesser tower-building games like "Mubbly Tower" do not. Featuring arcade-like gameplay, retro-style music, balanced difficulty that is neither easy nor hard, and enjoyable game physics, "Sky Mason" is a pleasure to play in both its modes. Curiously enough, this game seems to be bug-free - very rare for a GMC game! Nevertheless, I think this game has the potential to become something greater. I would be very pleased if the creator updated this, perhaps with professionally-done graphics and with more gameplay depth. However, the game is very fun already, and I would recommend it!

Final rating: 4/5 stars :thumbsup:

This has been the third review in the "Charmeleon's Awesum Reviews" series!

Hilarious game. Only problem is the difficulty does not get harder and harder. I eventually had to stop at a score of 700 because of lag and eventual tedium due to lack of difficulty.
