Haha, that last guy was MAD! Clever idea. It was made more difficult by the cursor resetting to center after every shot, instead of staying in the same place (A holdover from tetris as opposed to Space invaders, so I can see why you did it, though I ended up just using the space key as a fire button)

So after trying on the web version, in which the controls didn't work for some reason, but once I got it running by downloading the file needed, the game itself was pretty good I liked the idea of using the tetris pieces to destroy the aliens.

Nice combination of Tetris & space invaders! Controls in the web version didn't work.

Seconding PeerPlay, the web version is unplayable. Only interaction I could find is clicking on tetraminos to rotate them.

Great work with the last invader going crazy :D Too bad my tetrimino tower was ready to stop it. I'd like a sense of menace, other than losing pieces, but it's ok.

A bit of advice, be careful with that resolution in itch.io, as I could not see the piece I had to use.

Looks interesting, but web controls don't seem to work. Anyway. A nice combination of two classic games.

Thank you for the feedback, toggle full screen mode should help

Fun, unexpected game mashup.

I like the use of simple colors and how clean/simple it feels. Gameplay gets old pretty quick though.

Had a bit of difficulty getting web controls to work. Relaxing to play, though nothing is really Tetris about it aside from dropping down blocks. Game could stand to be more fast-paced.

Original blend of two classic games.

Controls in web version didn't work for me either, both in small frame and full screen.

Good mashup, though the web controls were also weird for me. I had to reload it and double-fullscreen before it finally worked.

Neat idea but I feel like there's more that could be done with the game to make it interesting to keep playing.

Really fun game!

Fun idea. Bit repetitive. For the web keyboard issues, see https://github.com/leafo/itch.io/issues/112 - it might help!

Hey! neat idea, two clasics against each other!

Interesting idea. I feel like it should have been possible to take out multiple enemies with one piece to make shape more important.

Linux version worked great, interesting concept!
