I really liked this game!

brother-byto 2014-04-29 21:04

Simple but fun, thumbs up!

anbreizh 2014-04-29 21:07

Unexpected interpretation of the theme, very nice game

Hi there,

Nice game. I kind of like the gameplay mechanic which works really great.

The pixel style works great with the sound and the gameplay, it feels really retro. :D

Two things I miss: Restarting in a specific (already reached) level and a tetris like endless mode (probably where new blocks keep spamming from the ground.

The little guy is so cute!

notnasiul 2014-04-29 21:08

Great, great game. I wish I had had this idea :D I love it, well done!

m0n0quartz 2014-04-29 21:09

Such a nice idea, graphics are neat and animations are really well done. Good job !

ioboi 2014-04-29 21:12

Good work :)

photon 2014-04-29 21:29

Nice little take on the theme and the block match genre! The block queue/levels and are a little haphazard and random (in other words, there isn't necessarily much distinct difference from one level to the next,) but its still a nifty game!

mimic 2014-04-29 21:46

Had a blast with this, but then i kept dying! I wish the next generated block wasn't so random, (or I can at least see the next one!) would make it so much more fun!

ripatti 2014-04-29 22:01

Very addictive. Good work!

incredible-ape 2014-04-29 22:18

Well made, but I was disappointed in an apparent lack of strategy. With no idea what color you're going to get next, you can't really plan ahead which makes winning or losing feel random.

Nice title screen though!

kyatric 2014-04-29 23:13

I would have enjoyed too to be able to restart from the level where I failed instead of "from the start".
Interesting take on the theme, I feel the "ceiling" is coming down a bit too fast but otherwise it makes for a funny efficient nice little game.
I haven't played it for very long, but I suspect the music can get very repetitive pretty quick. An improvement to add would probably be to add a switch, allowing to turn it off.

Congratulations for making a game in 48 hours and submitting it to the compo !

The protagonist is so damn cute *w*

katamori 2014-04-30 00:58

Also, the music is incredibly catchy.

mcapraro 2014-04-30 04:11

love the game mechanic. i could see this being great on a smartphone

dsoft20 2014-04-30 07:36

Nice game! Funny and entertainig :D

mortus 2014-04-30 08:01

Simple and fun mechanics, I love how relaxing the gameplay is after some of the 'heavier' games I've played today. :D Spent quite a few time playing your game!

kalabasa 2014-04-30 14:00

Nice simple game. The animations are good too. I think gameplay lacks some strategy. Maybe if you show the next pieces, the player will be able to plan ahead. Bigger levels (with height > 10) can encourage some strategising too. :)

catman 2014-04-30 21:04

Nice and polished, good job!

mrshoestore 2014-05-01 01:17

very addictive puzzle game. i could play this for hours.

jerick 2014-05-01 02:17

Cool idea. Would be nice to be able to see the next N blocks that are coming so you could be a bit more strategic about your movies.

actionremix 2014-05-01 02:39

The other kind of puzzle platformer. Good idea.

lukbebalduke 2014-05-01 03:08

I finshed 6 levels. Very funny !!! :D

radmars 2014-05-01 03:15

Nice! Definitely a fun concept. Would be better with some more concrete level design/puzzles though, feels pretty random currently.

hbocao 2014-05-01 03:49

hi there! i found the audio a bit annoying, but the game is really addictive and i enjoyed it! super fun =D

drnick 2014-05-01 04:26

While your game's great fun, it isn't very creative or deep.

phyyl 2014-05-01 05:09

Nice little game,! graphics are great in my opinion, sound was good and gameplay was too!

ndebruyn 2014-05-01 06:27

I love this game it is very much fun. Well done and good luck with this one. It might be a winner....

neonlare 2014-05-01 06:43

This game is absolutely charming, and a blast to play. Congratulations on such an amazing entry!

xk 2014-05-01 07:20

Great game, I actually had alot of fun playing this! Great job!

tomvert 2014-05-01 08:12

Very good puzzle game, makes me want more :) Like having combos and be able to see the next block. Also it would be nice if we didn't had to start over from the beggining each time you die. But in overall you did a great job !

liamtwose 2014-05-01 08:51

Awesome game, well done Marco!

zerkruemler 2014-05-01 09:37

Funny idea. Also fitting music. A little disapointing That you have to start from the beginning when you lost.
Sometimes it is more random if you can place the block usful.

neekobus 2014-05-01 10:14

Simple and efficient ! Base mecanics are goods.

You need to add power ups (explose line, jump boost, joker block, pushable blocks, slow, ...) because it will be a bit annoying otherwise.
I'd like to see the next block too.

Good work.

shadow64 2014-05-01 10:15

This was very nicely done. I had a lot of fun playing it and I felt like you had a lot of fun making it. Great work! :D

ithildin 2014-05-01 10:55

Simple, polished and fun. Well done! :)

dreauw 2014-05-01 12:08

Nice use of the theme ! That was really fun to play.

I'm really bad at this kind of game so it takes me a lot's of retry to just go to level 10 :D

d2fxrayg 2014-05-01 12:19

Nice! Simple but really fun to play!

arcturusdeluxe 2014-05-01 13:54

Interesting mechanics, fairly basic but fun. Cute graphics and music. Nice work!

triplevisiongames 2014-05-02 21:03

This is aaaaaaaaalmost the best game ever. So simple and satisfying yet challenging and nervous. Tweak the control and make it so you can somehow plan ahead, add bonuses and combos and I will throw my money at you until you drown in paper and metal.

secret_tunnel 2014-05-03 02:30

Very interesting take on the matching blocks genre! Might want to nail down the movement speed and make it feel really really good, but aside from that, wonderful game!

kescoe 2014-05-04 15:33

well its official this game is so much fun that i bookmarked it!

coinflipgames 2014-05-05 02:54

This game is brilliant!

mrx 2014-05-12 08:20

This was super fun! Good job, with some polish this could become something really rad.
Just need to work on your colour harmonies, otherwise controls felt super tight.

afal 2014-05-12 20:19

This game gets really challenging really quickly. I like it :D
